The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Yusuf Tukur Buratai, has promised that the troops will ruthlessly deal with the bandits and other criminal elements that are presently marauding Katsina and the North-west region of the country.
He stated this during a media briefing at the Army super Camp 4 in Faskari, Katsina.
He said: “So far with the brief I received this afternoon (Saturday), I am highly impressed with the level of commitment, dedication and loyalty of the troops.
“Be assured that we will be ruthless to all those criminals who are bent on disturbing the peace and security of our country. We call on the people of the states to support the troops collectively to achieve the desired objectives of having a secured Nigeria.
“We will not tolerate this attitude or conduct of molesting, kidnapping, killing and raping of innocent girls and women. We are determined to work hard with civil administrations to have a secured and peaceful Nigeria.”
