In response to recent calls for amnesty to be granted to bandits terrorizing the North-western region, Lagbaja categorically ruled out the possibility of such amnesty. Instead, he issued a stern warning to the criminals, urging them to leave the country immediately.
The Army Chief’s statement reflects the military’s determination to prevent the bandits from infiltrating other parts of the country. Lagbaja expressed concerns that amnesty programs have only provided opportunities for criminals to regroup, reorganize, and launch further attacks. CONTINUE READING
During the meeting, Lagbaja stressed the need to reconsider the amnesty program, citing the incorrigible nature of the criminal elements. He emphasized that granting amnesty has inadvertently allowed the bandits to strengthen their ranks and intensify their assaults.
The Nigerian Army remains committed to protecting the nation and its citizens from the threats posed by terrorists. The plea to Northern governors seeks to reinforce the importance of empowering the troops with the necessary authority and resources to effectively eliminate these criminal elements and restore peace to the region.

The collaboration between the Army and the governors is crucial in combating the ongoing security challenges in the Northern region. By granting the troops a free hand, it is hoped that they can act decisively and decisively deal with the terrorists, ensuring the safety and well-being of the people.
