Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau Jibrin, has called on security agencies to pursue and clamp down on the bandits terrorising communities in Tsanyawa and Shanono Local Government Areas of Kano State.
Responding to Saturday night’s attack in Yankamaye village, Tsanyawa LGA, in Kano Senator Barau urged security operatives to intensify their operations and confront the criminals, who are believed to be coming from neighbouring states.
In a statement released by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ismail Mudashir, the Deputy Senate President stressed that the infiltration of criminal elements into the two LGAs must be brought to an immediate end.
“I have received the distressing report of the killing of a woman and the kidnapping of three persons in Yankamaye village, Tsanyawa Local Government Area of Kano State, by marauding bandits from neighbouring states on Saturday night, when the villagers had retired to bed.
“This incident occurred just a few days after a similar attack in Biresawa village, also in Tsanyawa Local Government Area.
“I, therefore, call on our security agencies, who have engaged the criminals on many occasions in the axis, to double their efforts to rescue these innocent persons and tackle the perpetrators. They should take the fight to them.
“We will not allow these marauding criminals, fleeing from neighbouring states following military operations, to destabilize our communities.
“This incursion into the area must stop forthwith. The security of our people’s lives and properties is paramount. No stone will be left unturned in achieving this,” he said.
