In ancient times kings would lead their troops to war. Quite interesting learning that the governor of Zamfara led security chiefs to bandits’ hideouts. Hopefully bandits will disband with this kind of commitment 👌🏼👏
May Allah (SWT) continue to protect you and our security officers and help you to end insecurity challages and restore peace and stability across Nigeria
