The Zamfara State government on Tuesday ruled out negotiation with bandits or other criminals in the country.
The Secretary to the State Government, Abubakar Nakwada stated this while addressing journalists on the administration of Governor Dauda Lawal and that of his predecessor, Bello Matawalle, in the state.
The Matawalle administration had in 2021 initiated a peace move with the bandits but dropped the plan in September of the same year due to persistent bandit attacks on rural communities in the state.
