The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, has announced a new code name for a joint task force, ‘Operation Fansan Yamma,’ which collapsed all other operations in the Northwest.
A statement by Governor Dauda Lawal’s spokesperson, Sulaiman Bala Idris, said the announcement was made when the governor received the General Musa, at the Government House in Gusau.
The statement added that ‘Operation Fansan Yamma’ North-West is a codename with a strong message of hope, signifying that the troops are always prepared to crush banditry in the region.
In his remark, Governor Dauda Lawal commended the Chief of Defence Staff for showing commitment to tackling insecurity in the country.
“This visit is something we would never take for granted. My government is fully committed to cooperating with the army and other security agencies in Zamfara State.
“With your comment, I am optimistic that peace will return to Zamfara. You went to school here, and you have witnessed its peaceful nature in the past. Gusau used to be the second largest commercial centre in the North after Kano State.
“We are fully supportive of the Army’s efforts in the fight against banditry. The guards have been deployed to their local areas, where they are familiar with the terrain. We have complete confidence in the army’s dedication and believe they will continue to intensify their efforts.
“I would like to use this opportunity to express my condolences for the loss of the brave officers who tragically lost their lives along the Gusau to Funtua road. May their souls rest in peace”
“I want to reassure you that my government stands with you, and we will continue to work closely with the army and other security agencies to put an end to banditry”
Earlier, the Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, had expressed his gratitude to Governor Dauda Lawal for his support of the Nigerian Armed Forces and other security agencies in the state.
“We are here to express our appreciation for your commitment to the Armed Forces and security agencies as well as your valuable contributions to Zamfara state.
“I used to boast that I knew Gusau quite well, but honestly, now that I am here, I am confused. It’s remarkable to see how much development has taken place in just one year under your leadership. I want to say thank you for improving the lives of the people. This is the benefit of democracy. We have witnessed a lot of developments and ongoing constructions in the state since you took over.”
