Though it's true they pay Ransome and levies, but don't call figures like APC. Their elites share the proceeds while those who do the actual kidnappings and killings earned the minimum wage 3 Likes |

Lies, so because they disgraced the Nigerian army leading to the over publicized army build up in the area, paid non existent groups have come to tell their usual senseless lies. The bandits have likely left the area with all these public noise about a military build against them which shows how senseless these propaganda is, why publicize a military operation? Did they publicize operation python dance before launching it in the east? All these are noise making. |

Banditry in Nigeria, particularly in regions like Sokoto State, has reached alarming levels, severely impacting the lives and livelihoods of countless citizens. The fact that over N160 billion has been paid in levies and ransoms highlights the deep entrenchment of this crisis and the failure of existing security measures. It is likely that banditry is being sponsored and perpetuated by a combination of local and external actors, including corrupt officials, criminal networks, and possibly even insurgent groups, who exploit the insecurity for financial gain. The government's response has been inadequate, allowing these criminal enterprises to thrive and further destabilize communities. To address this, Nigeria must enhance intelligence operations, strengthen security forces, and hold accountable those who sponsor and benefit from banditry, ensuring they face justice. #Josboi |
