Former Senator Shehu Sani has praised the people of Gobir in Sokoto State for taking bold action against the terrorists that have been terrorizing their community.
A viral video shows thousands of residents storming the forest to confront the criminals.
Reacting to the video, Sani emphasised the need for communities to take a more active role in fighting banditry, stating that now is the time for people to confront these threats without fear.
He expressed this sentiment in a Facebook post, where he lamented the failure of security agencies to adequately address the insecurity in the region.
Sani stated, “The solution to the incessant and intractable problems of the cruelty and menace of banditry in the North West is a People’s Shahada action, which is a mass movement to fumigate and disinfect their lands, forests and farms against banditry and bandits.”
”The theory is aimed at permanently freeing the people from the criminality of kidnappings and killings so that they can take back their lives, their farms and schools, suggesting that the vigilantes and security agencies can all collaborate and cooperate on this to achieve results and pray that may Allah bring peace to the country,” he added.
