Irked by suggestion from Zamfara State Governor, Malam Yerima Sani, on the need to grant amnesty to terrorists and bandits, Northern leaders have urged President Bola Tinubu to ignore such calls, adding the way forward is to crush them and take them out of existence.
According to the group, negotiating with terrorists will only endorse criminality in the country, adding that it would encourage other criminals to toe same path in the future.
“there is no way President Bola Tinubu’s government will negotiate with bandits and terrorists. These were people who were brought into this country from parts of West Africa to prosecute elections for some persons in 2015. After they won their elections they failed to keep to the agreement they entered with the criminals and that is why they took to banditry and terrorism and tormenting the North. Those who brought them into the country know themselves. They should be made to go and clean up the mess they created for Nigerians.
“I am happy that President Tinubu has brought in people who can tackle insecurity in the country unlike what we had in the last government when nepotims beclouded them. They had wanted to turn Nigeria into a Fulani state but God came to our rescue as a people. So, there will be no bargaining, President Tinubu should never accept that,” President General of Mzough U Tiv, MUT, worldwide and Chairman of the three sociocultural/ethnic groups in Benue state, Chief Iorbee Ihagh said
