Brigade Commandant, Brigadier General Jamiu Olayinka Are, announced that the Nigeria Army’s Bukavor Barrack 3 Mechanized Brigade in Kano and its environs has experienced zero cases of banditry, kidnapping, and criminal activities by non-State actors.
The disclosure was made during a visit by members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) to the brigade in Kano.
Are attributed the sustained peace in Kano to the collaborative efforts of the Joint Security Taskforce.
He emphasized the positive results achieved through the synergy with other security agencies, stating, “In Kano, the synergy we have with other security agencies has yielded positive results and continues to make it easy for us to keep the state safer than ever before.”
The Brigade Commandant specifically mentioned the effective activities of security forces at Falgore Forest, which successfully deterred non-State Actors from infiltrating Kano and its surroundings. As a result, travelers along the route can move without fear.
In response, Aminu Ahmad Garko, the State Chairman of the Correspondents Chapel of the NUJ, expressed the readiness of newsmen to collaborate with the military and other security forces in the dissemination of information.
The visit highlighted the importance of partnerships between the media and security agencies to ensure accurate and timely information reaches the public.
