“The Kaduna State Government has declared total war on banditry, kidnapping, armed robbery and other forms of criminality. It has moved from agonizing over the incessant attacks on communities to an all out assault on criminal elements. It is determined to win this war.
“Governor Nasir El-Rufai is leading from the front. He means business. The days of banditry are indeed numbered in Kaduna State.
I wish to passionately call on my constituents, the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District to give the Governor total support as he wages a relentless battle against murderous elements and retrogressive forces keen on reversing the gains the government has made in the areas of development and peaceful co-existence.
“We must collectively make Kaduna State extremely hot for them. In unity lies our hope of success.
I salute our dear leader, President Muhammadu Buhari for his exemplary leadership in these trying times. He has been giving the Kaduna State Government all the support required to degrade the bandits terrorizing the state.
“He has commiserated with the people and reassured them of their safety and security. We pray for Mr. President’s continued sound health as he steers the ship of state in these challenging times.
“I must not fail to mention the Senate President, His Excellency Dr. Ahmad Lawan for the uncommon support he has been giving Governor El-Rufai since the insecurity situation took a dangerous turn. We deeply appreciate his support and thank him for his friendship.
“Our gallant members of the Armed Forces, The Nigeria Police and operatives of the Department for State Services (DSS) have been showing their mettle in the battle against banditry, kidnapping and other forms of criminality. Their patriotism and deep love for our people have been on display. We are indebted to them.
“This is the time for all of us to close ranks and give total support to the Government as it strives to make life uncomfortable for enemies of our people. They want to arrest development. They are keen on ensuring food insecurity. We must defeat banditry so that we can continue, without interruption, the unfinished business of making Kaduna State a model of development in Nigeria.”
