Kebbi Governor Idris Promises Military Base in Bagudo to Combat Banditry

In response to recent bandit attacks in Bagudo Local Government Area, Kebbi State Governor Dr. Nasir Idris has announced plans to establish a military base in the region to enhance security measures.

During a condolence visit to the District Head of Kaoje, Alhaji Mustapha Usman, the governor condemned the recent violence, which resulted in the deaths of the Village Head of Lafagu and other victims.

 He described the attacks as "barbaric" and reaffirmed his commitment to protecting residents from ongoing threats.

Idris emphasized that his administration, in collaboration with security agencies, would work tirelessly to eradicate banditry and restore peace to the affected communities. "I will not relent in ensuring the safety of my people," he stated.

The governor also visited Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps, where he expressed sympathy for victims and assured them of the government's commitment to their welfare and eventual return home. 

He highlighted the importance of taking decisive action to resolve the security crisis.

"My government is determined to support you and ensure that everyone returns safely to their villages," Idris added, urging residents to remain calm and patient during this challenging period. 

He warned against vigilantism and encouraged cooperation with security personnel.

In response, District Head Usman thanked Governor Idris for his timely visit and proactive approach to the security situation. 

He denounced the attacks as "un-Islamic" and inhumane, appreciating the governor's efforts to address community concerns.

As the state grapples with persistent insecurity, Idris reiterated that measures are in place to restore confidence among residents and mitigate the threat posed by bandits.

 The establishment of a military base is expected to bolster security efforts in the region.

Residents are hopeful that these initiatives will lead to safer communities and a more secure environment for all.
