To intensify the fight against banditry, Governor Nasir Idris of Kebbi State says he will sign death warrant of anyone convicted of volunteering information to bandits in the state.
The governor gave the warning during a visit to the inhabitants of Tudun Bichi in Wasagu Chiefdom of Danko-Wasagu Local Government Area to condole with them on the recurring attacks by bandits.
Governor Idris, who was furious about the devilish act of informants, made it clear that he would append his signature to the death warrant of convicted informants.
He decried that the activities of informants defy all norms and religious doctrines as they provide valuable information to bandits to perpetrate mayhem against their people.
Idris stressed that whoever is convicted for volunteering information to bandits leading to the killing of innocent souls will face the full wrath of the law.
The governor gave an assurance that his administration would continue to provide the necessary support to the security agencies with emphasis on logistics, welfare of troops and other material requirements for combat readiness and operational successes.
He accepted the request for immediate rehabilitation of the three kilometre road linking the village with Wasagu that had become impassable due to bridge collapse.
