FG probing bandits sponsors - DHQ

The Defence Headquarters said investigations are underway into allegations of banditry sponsorship in the North-West region.

 

The DHQ’s Director of Media Operations, Maj. Gen. Edward Buba, disclosed this on Thursday, September 26, 2024, at a press briefing in Abuja, 

 

The development comes on the heels of accusations and counter-accusations between the Minister of State for Defence and immediate past governor of Zamfara, Bello Matawalle, and his successor, Dauda Lawal, over banditry sponsorship.

 

When asked about the military’s role regarding the allegations involving the two influential Nigerians, the DHQ spokesman, Buba, said that relevant agencies tasked with such responsibilities were diligently investigating the matter.

 

“When you talk about what’s going on about the sponsors, I can assure you that the relevant agencies that are saddled with that responsibility are doing a good job. And sooner than later, you will hear some announcements in that regard,” he said.

 

Buba said notwithstanding, the military was focused on winning the war against banditry, and was focused on destroying their fighting will.

 

“Winning a war is destroying the enemy’s will to fight. When you destroy the enemy’s will to fight, the war is over, you have won the war. And that’s why we are focused on destroying the enemy’s will to fight,” he said.
