“The LGA has 10 political wards, with more than 200 villages. How can a police force with 39 personnel protect them?

“We have come up with an initiative that for any community ready to defend itself, we will give them necessary support and training to engage criminals before the arrival of the security agents.”

Katsina has been under severe attack by bandits.

Some days ago, Governor Radda called on the people of the state to adopt proactive measures to protect themselves against bandit attacks.

He spoke at a town hall meeting in Daura.
