In a statement attributed to its president, Abubakar Hassan Kankia, the group asserted that Governor Lawal capitalized on the insecurity prevalent during Matawalle’s tenure to gain political mileage, but has since failed to fulfill his promises to the people. They alleged that Lawal now resorts to spreading false narratives against Matawalle in an attempt to salvage his administration’s reputation.

According to the group, Lawal’s leadership has been marred by confusion and incompetence, contributing to the escalation of insecurity in Zamfara State. They criticized his lack of decisive action and accused him of prioritizing personal interests over the welfare of the citizens.

Furthermore, the statement highlighted the bandits’ audacious praise of Lawal, indicating that Zamfara has become a safe haven for criminals under his administration’s watch.

The Arewa Youth for Peace and Security concluded by expressing concern over the impunity with which terrorists operate in the state and called for urgent measures to address the security challenges plaguing Zamfara.
