Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State on Thursday in Birnin Gwari received some repentant bandits and reopened the cattle market which had been closed for about 10 years due to insecurity.

The governor said his government collaborated with some federal agencies to establish ‘The Peace Dialogue Group’, to engage with stakeholders.

Mr Sani said, ‘’Through numerous meetings and extensive discussions, we have built bridges of trust. Several senior bandit leaders had laid their arms and embraced peace, along with their followers.”’

According to him, these individuals are being enrolled in a rehabilitation programme designed by the state government in partnership with the federal government.

‘’This programme adheres to international standards of disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration, ensuring that these individuals can return to society as productive citizens,’’ he added.

The governor said the rehabilitation of the repentant bandits was based on the principle of ‘carrot and stick’, adding, ”’ while we welcome those who choose peace, we will not hesitate to take decisive action against anyone who continues to perpetuate violence.

‘’’The security, law enforcement and intelligence agencies have already achieved significant results, neutralising bandits’ kingpins, dismantling criminal networks and rescuing kidnapped victims,’’ he further said.

According to Mr Sani, his government is developing what he referred to as the ‘Kaduna Model,’ which is a comprehensive framework for sustainable peace and security.

‘’This model will include disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration, alongside investments in rural development and conflict resolution.

”It is a holistic approach that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes of insecurity,’’ he added.

Mr Sani said his administration has made remarkable progress, adding, ‘’through strategic communication and inclusive governance, we have earned the trust and confidence of our people.’’

‘’Insecurity is significantly reducing and ethno-religious tensions and farmer-herder clashes are rapidly becoming issues of the past.

”Communities from diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds are now united in their support for our peacebuilding initiatives, fostering greater harmony and mutual understanding.’’.

The governor argued that although his government was making strides in revitalising the rural economy, the effort could not thrive without security.

‘’We have reopened rural markets, strengthened the regulation of vigilance groups and proscribed the activities of the Yan Sa Kai.

”These measures are aimed at fostering trust and creating an environment where peace can flourish,’’ he said.

Mr Sani said that his administration operates an open-door policy and encourages dialogue as the foundation of lasting peace.

He added,” My message to anyone considering taking up arms is simple: talk to us instead. Let us resolve disputes through dialogue, not violence.

‘’To the bandits who have yet to embrace peace, I urge you to reconsider. Enough is enough. The days of kidnapping, cattle rustling, force levies and other criminal activities are over.

”Those who genuinely seek to change will find a government ready to support them, protect them and help them rebuild their lives.’’ (NAN)

MadamExcellency:
Repentance is not a joke. Stop misusing the term.

The irony is the fact that many are Pastors today who tell us about how they use to be cultist, armed robbers, kidnappers, CRIMINALS. That's another perspective to it.

Why don't we have repentant UGM members?

What the fvck do you mean by repentant bandit, is it that the Government doesn't learn or they are just being dumb and stupid?
🤮🤮

Nice one, it's indeed a long overdue, anything that would bring peace to the North is a welcome development

This people can never ever repent,they will never ever repent.
Nigerians don't learn.

What they do is whenever they are weak or loosing,they form repentance,when they get strong again they begin to strike.

Only the spirit of God can convict one to repentance.

What do you mean by repentant bandits

They have to open it to make room for income. Our Governors will now be alive to the responsibility of developing their states . No more free funds from the central. Kudos to the Governor for this laudable initiative

do these pple even know what is REPENTANCE

Black people are soo Stupid, But i think Nigeria is infected with the Highest Number of Black Idiots

Forgiving A TERRORIST? A killer ? A kidnapper? a Rapist? A cancer to the Society? A thorn in the flesh of Law Abiding citizens ?

NIGERIA IS THE MOST USELESS COUNTRY IN THIS WORLD

THESE BASTARDS SHOULD BE ON DEATH ROW!!!!!!!

Rubbish northerners

Wtf is repentant bandits fgs


What sort of region is this fgs🤦🤦🤦


These guys killed people, people that ought to be dealt with by firing squad🤦

It's not enough to receive repentant bandits without some checks on their previous activities and workings even if they won't be prosecuted for them.

To solve a problem u must address it from the roots.

Same old story.. that's why they deprive Nigerians quality education just for us to remain shallow minded while their kids explore.. funny they still have political fanatics..

Note! The way we practice religion heavily depends on the personality of its teacher

Those that they have killed must have resurrected be that

Repentant should go with resurrect

These animals will keep dragging the country backward

This is the only kinda News that comes out of the core North. It's a shame really.

Old things have passed away right? Nigeria.

They can never repent from Banditry...

Their Pedophilic Prophet was a Notorious Bandit until the day he died....

Like Prophet like People

There's no such thing as "Repentant tBandits" Do not be decieved, it brings to mind how the government of Borno state empowered some acclaimed repentant bandits,therefore empowering them with guns and motor bikes for few weeks,


There was even plans to enlisting the bandits into the Na,only for the bandits to escape back with the guns n motorbikes into the bush back to their boko hungout,they even made videos and were celebrating that they have
Decieved the government.

You see why we need to break away from the North.

They kill igbos & welcome northern terrorists.

Let tinubu cut off the parasites funding

Lovenorth:
Nice one, it's indeed a long overdue, anything that would bring peace to the North is a welcome development

You say this is nice?

I believe you would forgive someone who killed your parents and son, and raped your daughter

Okooo... I don't remove my hand for North insecurity wahala....since it's looks like political arrangement to make more money for the region..they should just legalise bandits and terrorists so they could be paying taxes to government

Ehya Bandits Repentant?



If you guys are expecting the western countries to sign a visa free agreement with Nigeria, it will never work because of these kind of news...

This union is not working atall

Northern leaders love comparing Northern
criminals to niger delta militants.

To them, if amnesty can be given to the
militants, they can also do same to common
northern theives, armed robbers, kidnappers
and deadly religious fanatics.

Last, last, it's the poverty stricken Northern
masses that lose out and Northern Nigeria
IS worse off 😠 😡
