The ongoing peace and reconciliation initiative of the Zamfara state government has led to the stoppage of arms buying by bandits in the state says Police Commissioner, Barrister Usman Nagogo.
Nagogo made the disclosure today while briefing journalists while parading five armed robbery suspects at the command’s headquarters in Gusau.
He said the bandits have so much trust in the process and are now becoming the eye and ear of government in the forest and are already taking on anybody among their kinsmen who is not ready to toy the line of peace.
“The good news is that they have stopped buying weapons of whatever calibers. So the influx of weapons in the state has stopped. All we need to do is to succeed in disarming the current one in the state”, he said.
