The Governor of Katsina State, Aminu Masari, has said that the government would not allow the insecurity in the Northwest and Northcentral to escalate to the status of Boko Haram terrorism in the Northeast.
The governor gave the assurance while addressing State House Correspondents after a meeting with President Muhmmadu Buhari on Wednesday.
The governor also revealed serious efforts were already on to ensure that banditry, kidnapping and all sorts of other criminal activities bedevelling the Northwest and the Northcentral were brought to an end.
He said though some communities in nine council areas of Katsina State had been affected negatively by the activities of bandits and other criminals, agricultural yields would still come out well.
