But in Kaduna State, security forces reportedly killed 10 bandits in Kwanan Bataru, Giwa Local Government Area. Buhari added, “The bandits are currently under desperate pressures, because of the intense and sustained air and ground operations against them in their hideouts by our security forces. He argued that the reality of declining insecurity should replace the inaccurate narrative of rising insecurity in the country.

In his felicitation with the Muslim Ummah to mark the Eid-Ul-Maulud on Tuesday, which has been declared a public holiday throughout the federation, Buhari said, “I am delighted to send greetings of peace, unity and goodwill to the Muslim Ummah, fellow citizens, and Muslims all over the world as they observe and celebrate Eid-ul- Maulud.”

One source said, “Mr. Auta noticed the presence of the bandits and he sneaked out of his house to alert the community since telephone services had been cut off. Kaduna State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Mr. Samuel Aruwan, disclosed that 10 bandits were killed by security forces in Kwanan Bataru, on the outskirts of Fatika in Giwa Local Government Area. In a statement on Monday, Aruwan said the bandits were neutralised in a gun duel with security forces, adding that several others escaped with gun shot injuries.

A source, which spoke on condition of anonymity, disclosed that the casualty figure was over 40, as the area was still unsafe for residents to access. The attack was the third in the area in two weeks. “Between yesterday and today, we have lost many people in Goronyo Local Government Area of the state,” he said, adding that before now, the situation in the state was not as bad. He appealed to the Nigerian Army to review its operations in the state.

In a related development, the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III, prayed for the continuous success of the security agencies against criminal elements in the country. While receiving Yahaya in his palace, the Sultan said he was always happy to receiving army personnel, having being one of them before ascending the throne.

The governor also decried the high number of internally displaced persons in the area and urged the federal government to do everything to ensure that the people returned to their homes. “I also appreciate the effort of security agencies, who are sacrificing their lives to ensure peace in our state. The federal government should do massive recruitment and adequate funding of security agencies so that they can put in their best in securing the lives of Nigerians.”The United States government declared its readiness to lend support to Nigeria towards the fight against insecurity.
