A former senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has asked the Minister of Defence, Bashir Magashi, to provide Nigerians with self defence tools against bandits.
Sani stated this on Thursday while reacting to a statement by the Minister that every Nigerian has a responsibility to ensure that their community is safe from bandits.
KanyiDaily recalls that Magashi had advised Nigerians to defend themselves against armed bandits instead of showing cowardice in the face of attacks.
Reacting on his Twitter page, Sani said the minister should provides Nigerians with ‘enabling tools’ to defend themselves against bandits, so that there would be no more cowards in the country.
“If the Defence Minister is prescribing self defence,his Ministry should provide Nigerians with the ‘enabling tools’ or formally permit them to privately source for it,so that there shall be ‘cowards’ no more in this beleaguered and bewildered land,” he wrote.
Magashi’s remarks comes after bandits struck at the Government Science College, Kagara, Niger state, where they abducted many schoolchildren and staff.
