Declare Bandits As Terrorists, Senate Tells Buhari by Omooba77: 2:27pm On Sep 29, 2021
The Senate has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to declare bandits as terrorists.

It also advised the president to wage total war against the bandits, including bombing all their locations to annihilate and eliminate them.

The Red Chamber also asked Buhari to declare all the known leadership of the bandits wanted and track them wherever they are for arrest and prosecution.

The resolutions followed a motion by Senator Ibrahim Abdullahi Gobir (Sokoto East) and eight others.

Gobir noted that Sokoto East Senatorial District has now become a safe haven for bandits due to the current onslaught against them in Zamfara State.

He recalled the killing of 21 security personnel last Saturday in Dama and Gangara and yet to be ascertained number of civilians from the neighbouring villages by rampaging bandits.

The gruesome murder, the lawmaker said, portrayed the seriousness of the problem which he said requires concerted and urgent action by the declaration of total war on banditry.

He expressed worry that losing such a number of trained officers would further deplete the numerical strength of the security personnel in the country, thereby jeopardizing the security architecture of the country.

He also lamented that most of the bandits have now relocated to Sabon Birni and Isa local government areas due to the sustained military operations at the Zamfara axis.

The lawmaker said while the crackdown on the bandits was taking place in Zamfara State, no concrete measures have been taken in Sokoto State, leaving it totally exposed to the activities of the bandits.

According to him, the present military onslaught on the bandits is not well coordinated because it is only being orchestrated in Zamfara State instead of all the front line states ravaged by banditry. ,

‘The operation should be holistic instead of restrictive in order to produce effective and the desired results,” he said.

The Senate observed a minute of silence in honour of the fallen heroes and civilians who lost their lives in the unwholesome activities of the bandits.

The Red Chamber also directed the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, and other relevant federal government agencies to as a matter of urgency give all the necessary support to the victims of the menace of banditry in Sokoto and other parts of the country.

How can he, is he not their chief patron? Buhari will rather declare the Senate themselves as terrorists instead of declaring his terrorist brothers as terrorists.

And others fulanis said that bandits are not terrorist but IPOB are terrorist...

I have a good news for you wailers, you guys are still going to wail and cry us a River, we know your tricks and it will never work... You guys think igbos are foolish and can be easily decieve with your crocodile wailing...

I remember in 2017 when you fools was mocking the igbos with python dance pictures of some people being dealt by your terrorist soldiers...

All of a sudden you guys are now pretending to love the igbos... You guys stop mocking the igbos again, you guys have stopped showing us a picture of the igbos swimming in a mud water in the time of python dance.. the monsters those in the uniform created is now dealing with them...

I'm here on nairaland to catch cruise... We noticed that even some fulanis and afonjas answering igbos name to comment rubbish...

It's only a foolish igbos will easily forget how Nigerian fulanis terrorist soldiers killed the innocent igbos in 2017, they was here mocking us and calling us names...

Now the fulanis are coming with another propaganda, anyone murdered in Igbo land is now murdered by IPOB...

If assassins murder someone they will find a way to blame IPOB...

The truth is that after them blaming IPOB the truth will still come out and put them to shame....


IPOB and BIAFRA has come to stay...
God bless IPOB
God bless MNK
God bless BIAFRA
And God bless ndigbo...

To soften attacks on Boko Haram the northern government tactically renamed them as simply "bandits"; but then the same "bandits" were bold enough to attack NDA in Kaduna and killed military men.

They have been kidnapping students, travellers, village chiefs and now politicians, yet Buhari prefers to call them bandits.

The idea behind it is that bandits are equally unknown gun men. They're faceless. They may have many groups and operate differently but you can't tell which group carried out a particular attack even with a Gumi involved. Therefore, there's no way you can proscribe what you don't know.

When election comes this same "bandits" will have another name, maybe "political thugs" or "hoodlums".

I've said it many times, the Islamic northern politicians are the smartest.

Who is a terrorist?
What are the criteria for being tagged terrorists?
Re: Declare Bandits As Terrorists, Senate Tells Buhari by WibusJaga: 5:21pm On Sep 29, 2021

Makes no difference to me whether or not they are declared terrorists. Boko Haram that were declared terrorists, are they not still being treated with kid gloves?
Afterall the Chief Terrorist once said...
"An attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the North"
