Kebbi State Governor, Atiku Bagudu, has vowed to lead local hunters and vigilantes to battlefield against bandits and to defend the territory of state against frequent attacks.

The governor stated this on Saturday in Birnin Kebbi while addressing hundreds of local hunter and vigilante groups from different parts of the state who stormed the state capital to declare their readiness to wage war against bandits.

Bagudu, in an emotional laden- voice, told the hunters that he and other governors were ready to be on the battlefield to defend the lives of the people, their properties and territories of the nation.

“We are not military yet and we are not police.

“We commend and respect what the security agencies are doing and they are doing a great job; but security agents are human beings.

“They also want the community’s support; they want the support from the vigilantes.

“So if we can go to electioneering campaign rallies and gather 100,000 people, what has taken place in Birnin Yauri, should be the last strike.

“We should follow these bandits wherever they are and kill them all.

“And I call on all my colleagues in other states too to do same.

“How many are they (bandits)?

“How many of us can they kill?

“So,we will discuss with the security agencies, so that we don’t interfere with the commendable jobs they are doing.

“But, we will go out there, like I promised you, on the day we move out, I will not be in office; I will join you in the field.

“And I am sure other governors will be leading their people so that we can all meet in the fields.

“It is not the weapons that win the war, it is the will of the people.

“Bad people cannot tramp upon the will of good people, and we would show them that we have the will power,” he charged.

Bagudu also commended President Muhammadu Buhari and security agencies for doing their best with limited resources, stressing the need for the people to mobilise themselves and take on the bandits.

“Yes, we are afraid of death; nobody wants to die, but Who will not die?

“We are afraid not to be hurt but who will not be hurt? Which one is more tragic, to die like a coward?

“I think that should be the greatest fear or to die without faith?

“Because, as the people of faiths, we know that our Scriptures, both Christians’ and Muslims, especially Muslim, Islam teaches us to put our lives at risk in defending our honours, or our properties or our faith.

“In all what these bandits are doing to us, they have challenged our faiths, our properties and our honour and we can’t allow them to go...
