Following measures to curb insecurity across the country, especially in the Northern part of Nigeria, Kano state governor Abdillahi Ganduje has reportedly warned Fulani herders in the state against indulging in banditry as anyone caught and found guilty of the offence will face death penalty.
According to reports, the governor gave the warning at the formal launch of the State-wide mass cattle and small ruminants vaccination campaign held at Kadawa Village, Garun-mallam Local Government Area of the State on Saturday.
He noted, “We have succeeded in stamping out cattle rustling, as I cannot recall when we experienced it because we entered into dialogue with herdsmen who confessed and became born-again. We trained them and empowered them.”
He maintained that “So don’t indulge in cattle rustling because we have a law; if you commit cattle rustling, it is life imprisonment. Similarly, if you indulge in banditry, it is a death sentence.”
