President Muhammadu Buhari, has informed bandits causing havoc in some parts of the country that there is no place for them any longer, adding that the security agencies will end their reign of terror.
The President who spoke on Monday evening was reacting to the killing of over 30 people in Goronyo, Sokoto State, on Sunday by bandits, saying “the clock of your ultimate destruction is ticking as you will no longer have a place to hide”.
According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, President Buhari said “the days of the bandits are indeed numbered because the military capabilities of our forces are being boosted by the acquisition and deployment of advanced equipment”.
According to him, “the bandits are living in the fool’s paradise of invincibility, but reality will soon dawn on them harder than ever before.”
President Buhari added that “the bandits are currently under desperate pressures because of the intense and sustained air and ground operations against them in their hideouts by our security forces.
“The cowardly attacks on innocent people by the bandits show a rearguard action of criminals under pressure. But they will have no place to hide and our gallant security forces will not relent in the current offensive to defeat these callous enemies of humanity,” the President emphasized.
