Senate Urges President Tinubu to Revamp Security Measures Against Bandit Attacks in t - Ali - 06-06-2024
On Thursday, the Senate called on President Bola Tinubu to revamp the security strategy in response to the ongoing bandit attacks in Nigeria's North West and North Central regions.
The Senate also recommended that Tinubu form a task force dedicated to protecting farmlands, aiming to boost food production and ensure food security. This measure, the lawmakers believe, would help address the soaring food prices affecting the nation.
These resolutions followed a motion co-sponsored by Senator Nasiru Zangon-Daura (APC, Katsina North) and ten other senators from the North West zone.
During the plenary session, Zangon-Daura expressed deep concern over the escalating insecurity in the North West. He highlighted the tragic loss of lives and the increasing number of captives due to banditry.
Zangon-Daura noted that state governments in the North West have allocated substantial funds to support security agencies in their fight against banditry and efforts to restore peace. However, he lamented that these efforts have yielded minimal results.
