Two Katsina State House of Assembly members on Monday burst into tears at a plenary deliberating over the issue of insecurity afflicting many Local Government Areas of the state.

The Deputy Speaker of the house, Alhaji Shehu Dalhatu-Tafoki, had earlier presented a motion of urgent public importance over the level of insecurity in the state at the plenary presided over by the Speaker, Alhaji Tasi’u Maigari.

According to Dalhatu-Tafoki, (APC Faskari), despite the efforts of the federal, state governments and the security agencies, the security problem was increasing everyday in the state.

He, therefore, called on the concerned government authorities and the security agencies to re-strategise their approach to tackling the rampant activities of bandits in Katsina.

Dalhatu-Tafoki noted that the issue of insecurity in Katsina State was worsening by the day, with more people being killed everyday as more Local Government Areas were being affected.

“There is a serious need for the security outfits in the state to increase their outposts across the state, especially the most insecurity affected areas.

“The outposts in those areas are not enough, they cannot overpower the bandits, despite the huge amounts of money being spent on them,” he said.

He also called on the general public to continue to pray for the return of peace all over the state.

In his contribution, Alhaji Haruna Goma (APC Dandume), representing Dandume constituency, said recently no fewer than 11 persons were killed in two communities of Dandume, while many were abducted.

While narrating the incident, the lawmaker burst into tears, saying that government should come to their aod before members of the community end up being massacred.

Similarly, the member representing Funtua constituency, Alhaji Abubakar Mohammed, (APC Funtua), also shed tears as he narrated how for the past 40 days, bandits attacked their communities daily, killing scores and kidnapping many.

Also, the lawmaker representing Katsina constituency said the insecurity challenge was beyond imagination, as about 32 out of the 34 LGAs in the state were now affected, adding that even within Katsina metropolis, people were being kidnapped.

He called on the government to review its expenditure on security as there was no visible improvement.

Alhaji Jabir Yusuf (APC Batsari), representing Batsari constituency, described the recent killing of 12 people in Duba, a community in Batsari, as unfortunate.

After the long deliberations by the lawmakers, the assembly unanimously adopted the motion and called on all relevant authorities to look into the issue in the interest of those affected.

The house also resolved to hold a meeting with the National assembly members from Katsina and also the state executive arm, to discuss the issue of insecurity.

The lawmakers also resolved to invite all heads of security agencies in the state and also the state’s committee on security, for solutions to the problem.

I pity villages in northern Nigeria.. they are seeing hell and there's no media to tell their story! The media only covers the coronation of olu of warri, apostle Suleiman, Bbnaija and those who are trying to revive the damaged image of Buharis administration

They're always crying instead of holding their president to account

He should be shot at sight. If he survives it, he should be result.

Is it not his godfather the dangerous breathing mannequin hiding inside the Rock that has been pardon and giving support to Fulani herdsmen = bandits = boko haram?

Watch how igbos and Yoruba Christians will cry more than the bereaved

Crocodile tears.
We wey don cry since May 2015, they said we are wailers.
Who's now wailing?
Aboki kee Aboki, how e take consign we the wailers?

Alligator tears, they will still go and collect their share from the bandits at night.

Crocodile tears.Weeping will definitely continue for them because they are complicit in the shit they cook.They once lament that Governor Masari and their president son have failed Kastina people but what did they did beyond the lamentation and weeping?

Meanwhile, where were they when their home state governor went into the forest to belatedly negotiate with bandits while their president son was doing likewise with BH boys? What about the murderous activities of the killer fulani kiths and kins? The fact is karma knows how best to settle the score of injustice.

What concerns media with people who have resolved to suffer?
In case you don't know, these victims love their oppressors. They prefer them to you.
Abeg we they enjoy our Bbn. After all, we wailers never brought this calamity of a man into power; they did.
Next time they'll still vote for another bubu.

Criticize Buahri infront of him and see him stone you to death.

Buhari is like religion to northerners. If he contest again, northerners will vote for him, even more

Hahaha, I am just laughing at their hypocrisy. Shame shame shame, Buhari. You can't secure your home state

It's so scary bandits can now successfully lunch an attack on our military base

We don't pray for this, but probably if something is not done! Fulani herdmens bandits will invade the country...

You guys will be left with no option seeking refugee outside our dear country for safety...

The question is who are you gonna be flying with?

Crocodile tears
Imagine o, buhari's own state also facing insecurities..

I know say all of them enter kano for wedding last weekend... why dem no tell baba yusuf ...

They are crying but don't have the courage to tell Buhari to step down or for the NASS to impeach him.
Hypocrites!
It's that hypocrisy,their lies,cowardice but mainly nepotic affiliation to Buhari that is destroying their state,their region and rendering their people homeless,in extreme poverty,for the ones lucky to escape with their lives.
They should continue crying alone till 2023.

Lori iro

Werey dey disguise!

If e like make hin cry or decry, until he says the right words, he's just another political clown fine-tuning his tactics on how to return to the house come 2023.

Una never see anything, who vote for the mannequin pass? Na una vote for am 2015 and 2019. I remember when people dey talk say KANO, KADUNA AND KATSINA be the Kardashians of Nigeria, that time ẹ funny, but now ẹ no funny again àbí. Una just dey start sef.

My problem with these people is they don't learn, if Buhari is to go for a 3rd term, the blockheads would still queue to vote for him.
