The Minister of State for Defence, Bello Muhammad Matawalle, has urged residents of Sokoto State to report any unemployed person living flamboyantly to security agents.
Speaking at the Sokoto State Governor’s office on Tuesday, September 2, the Minister stated that such individuals, if investigated further, may be informants for the bandits disrupting the state’s peace.
Matawalle, accompanied by the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, relocated to Sokoto on the directive of President Bola Tinubu as part of efforts to rid the state and the entire north-west of rampant t£rrorism.
According to him, “Like what we did while I was the governor of Zamfara State, I call on the people of Sokoto State to always provide information to the security agents.
If you see someone who isn’t employed but is frequently changing cars and spending money lavishly, please do not hesitate to report such a person. They may be informants for bandits.
We are here to crush the bad elements in our midst, and by the special grace of God, we will succeed.”
