Aisha Buhari to security agencies: End bandits’ attacks now

287

Wife of President, Aisha Buhari, has called on security agencies to quickly end banditry and other insecurity challenges in parts of the country else the bandits will succeed in killing everybody.

“The security agents should either assist to take action or allow the situation continue until bandits finished killing our people, she said Saturday in Katsina while distributing relief materials to over 25,000 victims of bandits attacks. This is even as she has charged well meaning Nigerians should talk on things that were going wrong in the country, so as to elicit necessary action.

“We are not supposed to be here giving rice, milk and others items to victims of an incident during Ramadan period.

“We should not keep silent while things are happening, thinking that if something happens, today it will not happen tomorrow.

“What happened today will happen tomorrow, it will also happen next tomorrow if we keep silent.

“It is compulsory to speak the truth, it is not proper for us to give highest number of votes during the general elections and allow bandits continue killing people and keep quiet.

“We must speak on whatever is going wrong in the country,” she said.

The wife of the president said the donations of relief materials came from herself, wives of the former governors of Nasarawa, Bayelsa, Adamawa, Akwa Ibom, among others.
