Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State, on Thursday, received the first batch of repentant bandits in Birnin Gwari Kaduna.
The governor, who also reopened a cattle market in the area, which had been shut for nearly a decade due to insecurity, further pledged to ensure fairness and justice for all residents, including farmers, herders, and traders, as part of efforts to foster lasting peace and development in the state.
He warned that the rehabilitation of repent bandits was based on the principle of carrot and stick, adding that ‘’while we welcome those who choose peace, we will not hesitate to take decisive action against anyone who continues to perpetuate violence.’’ He said the security, law enforcement and intelligence agencies have already achieved significant results, neutralising bandit kingpins, dismantling criminal networks and rescuing kidnapped victims.
