Data shows that Niger state has the highest percentage of kidnapping rate in Nigeria as a whole between January-november 2021. Especially in shiroro and Borgu Local Government.“The Islamic State of West Africa, ISWAP, and the dreaded Boko Haram have now set camps in some parts of the state.”In some parts of Borgu Local Government, particularly Babanna and the KLNP, the group has already established their camp and have started recruiting locals around.In an audio recording that the terror group released, they revealed that they were the abductors of the district head of Wawa, Dr. Mahmud Ahmed Aliyu who spent of about 43 days in captive with the ISWAP and the notorious bandits.In an audio recording that the terror group released, they revealed that they were the abductors of the district head of Wawa, Dr. Mahmud Ahmed Aliyu.The Secretary to the State Government, Ahmed Ibrahim Matane, disclosed this on Tuesday while giving a security update in Minna, the state capital.He said these things were happening in Kwaki, Kusaso, Kawure, Chikuba, Kurebe, Madaka, Farin-Dutse, Falali and Ibbru communities.“Every Friday prayers, they come and preach to the communities not to send their children to school.“We have also seen recently, where the bandits in some locations were taxing communities to pay to access their farms.“They are deliberate because they know that this is harvest season, so farmers would be anxious to harvest their farm products.“We have also seen cases where when communities refuse to pay the tax, the bandits go and set the farms on fire,” the SSG said.He said Borgu Local Government Area sharing borders with the Benin Republic had also come under the activities of Islamic States West Africa Province (ISWAP), particularly around Babanna.He noted that the security challenges were more in six local governments of Munya, Shiroro, Rafi, Mariga, as well as parts of Msshegu and Lapai sharing borders with other states.He decried inadequate police personnel in the state, saying less than 8, 000 police personnel were manning the state, making quick response difficult whenever there were attacks.He said the security situation in the state had worsened in the last few weeks, because of the operations going on in Zamfara and Kaduna states.The SSG said, “The whole thing you are talking about is more of a national security architecture that would have to be provided from deployment of ICT, enhanced equipment and machinery for security personnel and their own numbers. If we don’t do this, we are just wasting our time.“By the time bandits leave a community, we would be told here that they were on their way, they were about 200 on motorcycles, each carrying a passenger or two and they were heading towards somewhere.“In some of these communities, there is no one formation of security that has up to a 100 personnel.“So, what it means is that the moment they come, they overcome that place; they overrun the whole of that community.“When we went to their camps, I was telling some people that we were just wasting our time because these people were mobile and well communicated.“Each one of them has a satellite phone and they have motorcycles that can move in any terrain.“When you are giving police personnel about 4 or 10 rounds of ammunition, the bandits have them in bags and they are ready to expend over a hundred rounds of ammunition.”The Secretary to the State Government, Ahmed Ibrahim Matane, disclosed this on Tuesday whHe said these things were happening in Kwaki, Kusaso, Kawure, Chikuba, Kurebe, Madaka, Farin-Dutse, Falali and Ibbru communities.“Every Friday prayers, they come and preach to the communities not to send their children to school.
