Virtually, all assaults of various kinds that are perpetrated nation-wide are believed to have been masterminded by bandits who are mostly Fulani.

The Senate also broke the silence via the motion, sponsored by Senator Ibrahim Abdullahi Gobir and 8 others that Sokoto and other parts of North West are becoming a harbour for bandits.

Gobir gave a cue to Senators that on Saturday, bandits mowed down about 21 Security agents in the Dama and Gangara area in Sokoto.

He said: “Concerned that on Saturday, 25th September 2021, twenty-one Security personnel were killed in Dama and Gangara villages by the rampaging bandits.”

To their dismay, the chambers were eventually funded, though accompanied with constant insecurity.
