Repent or we send you back to your creator – Matawalle tells Bandit Informants

Minister of State for Defence, Alhaji Bello Matawalle, has warned bandits’ informants to repent or be sent back to their creator.

DailyTrust reports that he gave the warning during an assessment visit to Gundumi village, Isa and Sabon Birni local government areas of Sokoto state, on Thursday, October 10.

The Minister, who was saddened by the few presence of people at the village, said,

 “This place used to be lively with a lot of business activities. I assure you it will bounce back. We are going to cite a military base here.

But you must fear God. Those who have been calling and informing bandits about the movement of security operatives and also about their brothers should desist henceforth. You better repent or we send you back to your creator.

The fight is not for Matawalle, Federal, state and security agencies alone. It’s for all Nigerians that wish this country well.

Therefore, journalists have a greater role to play because we know the bandits have been flooding social media platforms with all sorts of propaganda. Our media houses must continue to report successes recorded by our gallant military in the fight against banditry and insurgency.

Just recently, the military dealt a big blow to the miscreants by neutralizing a notorious bandits’ kingpin, Halidu Sububu who happened to be their major supplier of arms and ammunition. And there were others kingpins who were sent to early graves too”
