Zamfara State government has suspended the district head of Badarawa, Shinkafi emirate, Surajo Namakkah, for conferring a title on a military officer, who was arrested for selling ammunition to bandits.
The state governor, Dr Bello Matawelle, disclosed this in his twitter handale, @belloMatawelle1.
He explained: “We suspended Surajo Namakkah, the district head of Badarawa, Shinkafi emirate, for conferring a title on a military officer who was arrested for selling ammunition to bandits.
“The military officer was recently arrested in possession of 20 rounds of 62mm live ammunition.”
Recall that a military officer was arrested in Zamfara State recently for sabotaging the efforts of the Nigerian government in ending the nation’s insecurity by arming the bandits.
