The governor of Katsina State, Aminu Bello Masari, on Wednesday met with President Muhammadu Buhari to brief him on the security situation in his state, telling State House correspondents afterwards that to defeat the bandits terrorizing people in the North-West is a task that must be done.
The governor noted that the military has set up two supper camps in the state to give them enough leverage to root out the criminals.
However, he observed that the raining season has become a snag in the war against the bandits as soft soil prevents the quick deployment of heavy military machinery.
He was confident that the situation remains under control, assuring that life will soon return to normal for those affected.
