A former Deputy Governor of Jigawa State and a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) Alhaji Ahmed Muhammad Mahmoud, has tasked the Jigawa State Government to take precautionary measures against insecurity, to prevent its spread to the State.
Mahmoud, also the Jigawa Northwest candidate of the ADC, told newsmen in Dutse that the government must collaborate with security agencies to safeguard the state from the invasion of evildoers.
“The issue of insecurity or security challenge is fast approaching our state, if concrete measures are not taken it will be in Jigawa soon.
“Recently, we went for a burial in Kano and what we encountered was horrible, we were just lucky to escape an attack by hoodlums carrying dangerous weapons.
“We even learnt that an individual was killed in the area by the hoodlums a few days back. We don’t want that kind of scenario in Jigawa State.
“We must begin to take actions to prevent the incursion of those evildoers to the State,” he said.
Mahmoud said, however, that his party, the ADC had an elaborate action plan against the security challenge in the country.
“We will fight insecurity by ensuring a just system where everyone has a sense of belonging in the country.
“The whole thing looks as if some people or organisations are behind the security challenge in the North, engineering the killing and destruction. It’s like some people are bent on disgracing us.
“We will put in place a just and a fair system that will stop all these,” he said.
