The Chief of the Defence Staff, Gen Abayomi Olonisakin, has said the military has deployed troops to the North-West, North-Central, South-South and other regions to tackle insecurity.

The CDS told the public to be patient with the military as the armed forces were not ignoring the security issues in the country.

“In the North-West, we have our troops fighting banditry. In North-Central, we have them fighting cultism and kidnapping. We have them in the South-South and South-West. Nigerians should understand that we are not sleeping. We are doing our best and we will ensure that peace returns to every region.”

“Under this administration, the army started manufacturing its own vehicles using 70 per cent local content, indigenous technology and human resources. We are also using this medium to call on the military to intensity efforts to end insurgency in the country.” The village head said although the bandits had not carried out their threats of attack following the various peace efforts made by the state government and other stakeholders, residents still lived in fear.Sani said when the hoodlums came up with the N1.3m levy, the community asked each household to contribute N1,500, adding that the 296 households in the community could not raise the money.

The village head said, “We are afraid even with assurances we got and several interventions by the state government and other stakeholders.
