President Muhammadu Buhari, on Saturday, called on Nigerian military to crush bandits and save innocent citizens in the country.

He made the call as he condemned repeated bandit killings in Zamfara and Kaduna states.

He urged the nation’s military to respond to the worrying situation in a language that the bandits understood.

The president noted that the military and other security agencies were now working on new methods and policies that were yielding good results in many of the troubled parts of the country.

He called for a crushing response to the killing of innocent citizens in the rural communities.

He also averred that the nation, its military and the entire population needed to summon the courage required to defeat the bandits and terrorists.

President Buhari condemned some politicians making utterances on security, merely seeking applause, advising them to join the ongoing genuine efforts aimed at finding lasting solutions to the challenges confronting the nation.

He expressed the nation’s sorrow over the loss of lives, urging security agencies to do everything possible to prevent the recurrence of attacks with impunity.
