Sokoto Praise Military For Strong Operations Against Bandits

Sokoto State Government has commended the Nigerian Military over its operation against insecurity and banditry in the state.

The Special Adviser on Security Matters to the state Governor, Col Ahmed Usman (rtd), stated this while speaking with newsmen in Sokoto.

He said the federal government in collaboration with the state government and other security agencies are doing their best to restore peace in the region.

“Just two weeks ago, hundreds of motorcycles and patrol vehicles were released to local government areas for the use of our local security guards which was established recently by the state government.”

“This is in addition to other support given to conventional security agencies like the police, army, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, among others. A total number of 70 brand new patrol vehicles, including Toyota Buffalo and Hilux were distributed to them”, Usman said.
