The North-western Governor’s Forum has said that to have a banditry-free society, all stakeholders must show commitment to fighting the menace.
Chairman, of the Forum, Governor Aminu Bello Masari of Katsina State said this on Thursday in Abuja when he led a delegation of the Forum on a condolence visit to Senator Aliyu Wamakko.
Findings show that some indigenes of Sokoto State were recently killed by bandits, some of whom were locked up in a bus and set ablaze.
He sympathized with the government and immediate families of those who were brutally killed in the name of banditry.
While acknowledging that the Nigerian Police had limitations in fighting insecurity, Masari said that security agencies required technologies to effectively tackle the challenge.
Similarly, Gov. Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State said that blaming each other would not bring any solution to the security challenge.
Proffering a solution, Ganduje said that data must be sourced while also calling for the use of technology in the fight against insecurity.
