Dear Sir,
Re: Complaint About Insecurity In Dandume, Faskari, Sabuwa, and Funtua Local Government Areas
We are Writing To Express Our Dissatisfaction and Concern About The Worsening Security Situation In Dandume, Faskari, Sabuwa, and Funtua Local Government Areas Of Katsina State. We are a Resident Of Dandume A Ward, and We Have Witnessed Firsthand The Atrocities Committed By Bandits and Kidnappers In Our Community and Neighboring Ones.
The Bandits Have Been Terrorizing Us For Years, Killing and Kidnapping People At Will, Day and Night. They Have Also Been Looting Our Properties, Occupying , and Destroying Our Farms. We Live In Constant Fear and Anxiety, Unable To Go About Our Normal Activities Or Sleep Peacefully At Night. Many People Have Fled Their Homes and Villages, Seeking Refuge Elsewhere.
We Have Reported These Incidents To The Local Authorities Several Times, But We Have Not Seen Any Improvement In Our Security Situation. Instead, It Seems To Be Getting Worse By The Day. We Feel Abandoned and Neglected By The Government That Is Supposed To Protect Us and Ensure Our Safety.
We are Appealing To Uou As The Chief Security Officer Of The State To Intervene Urgently and Decisively In This Matter. We Urge You To Deploy More Security Forces To Our Local Government Areas, Especially In The Rural Areas Where The Bandits Operate Freely. We Also Request That You Engage In Dialogue With The Bandits and Persuade Them To Lay Down Their Arms and Embrace Peace. Furthermore, We Ask That You Provide More Support and Compensation To The Victims Of Banditry and Kidnapping, Who Have Lost Their Loved Ones, Properties, and Livelihoods.
We Hope That You Will Take Our Complaint Seriously and Act Swiftly To Restore Security and Peace In Our Local Government Areas. We are Tired Of Living In Fear and Suffering In Silence. We Deserve To Live In Dignity and Harmony As Citizens Of Katsina State.
