Kebbi state government refutes claims of neglecting villages devastated by armed marauders

The Kebbi State Government has taken notice of a misleading narrative being spread by opposition members, claiming that certain communities have been left vulnerable to bandits and terrorists, according to a statement signed by Chief Press Secretary Ahmed Idris.

n

This statement aims to correct the false impression that the government is not addressing insecurity in the state, emphasizing that security matters are highly sensitive and not all strategies or actions can be publicly disclosed.

n

The fact that some actions are not publicly announced does not imply inaction, as the government is working diligently to address security challenges across the state, with His Excellency, Executive Governor Nasir Idris, committed to the safety and well-being of the people.

n

Governor Nasir Idris is actively leading the state's efforts against insecurity, collaborating closely with relevant security agencies and stakeholders to protect lives and property, and create a safe environment for residents to engage in their daily activities.

n

The government's efforts also focus on enabling farmers to safely access their farmlands and allowing communities to live and work with greater confidence, while calling on those who politicize the security situation to exercise greater responsibility in their public commentary.

n

Addressing insecurity requires cooperation, intelligence, strategic planning, and sometimes confidentiality, rather than publicly disclosing every government action, and the people of Kebbi State deserve factual information rather than sensationalism.

n

The government remains committed to protecting residents, supporting security agencies, and using its constitutional powers to ensure lasting peace, security, stability, and sustainable development across the state, with Governor Nasir Idris working tirelessly to achieve this goal.
