Governor Bello Matawalle has vowed to deal with politicians who are sabotaging his security effort in Zamfara state which he governs.
The Governor who alleged that “many people” are bent on making Zamfara unsafe for residents while speaking at a meeting with religious leaders, traditional rulers and representatives of security agencies at the government house in Gusau on Thursday January 21, revealed that he summoned Emir of Maradun, Garba Tambari to explain how two herdsmen were killed in his domain.
Matawalle said;
“As I am speaking to you right now, I received text messages that, 13 people were killed in Bingi and 11 others were kidnapped in Nahuche, all in the Bungudu local government area.
“I also received another message just now that, some people are staging a demonstration between Anka and Jangebe. Another report reaching me right now indicated that the Yansakai have slaughtered two Fulani herdsmen in Maradun local government.
“I wonder what is happening, but I am not surprised because I know that there are some politicians who are always happy to hear that some people are killed in Zamfara.
“Let me send a strong warning to them, that as from today, I will take a very drastic action against those politicians who are sabotaging our security efforts.”
