Last Saturday, bandits attacked the Kaduna International Airport and allegedly prevented any aircraft from taking off. However, they were reportedly repelled by security operatives drafted to address the menace.

A few days later, bandits attacked a rail line between the Katari and Rinjani train station along the Kaduna-Abuja route.

@Ttrepsiola: “Buhari has failed us and the National Assembly should force the president to take decisive action against him.”

@Olaniyiyebos: “Instead of them making laws that would curb the activities of banditry, terrorism, and insecurity, the National Assembly was focused on Electoral Acts and preparing for the next elections. Who will vote for them when the country is not safe?”

@Stedybird: “The National Assembly needs to amend the constitution to create room for the adequate tackling of these terrorists, especially in the Northeast and Northcentral.”
