Garba Maidoki, senator representing Kebbi south, says authorities know the identities, locations, and motives of the criminal groups behind recent mass abductions in the northern region.
Maidoki spoke on Wednesday during the plenary while contributing to a motion on escalating insecurity in Kwara, Kebbi, and Niger states.
The senator expressed mixed feelings over the recent release of 24 schoolgirls abducted in his senatorial district.
“I am very happy and sad at the same time,” he said. “Happy in the sense that the 24 girls from Maga, in my own constituency, that were abducted have been released, and they are all safe and healthy.
They have not been molested.” The lawmaker questioned why attacks persist despite what he described as clear intelligence on those responsible.
“We know who these bandits are,” Maidoki said. “We know where they are. We know what they want. What is left for us to conclude?
If we are going to do negotiation, do it and finish it. If we are going to fight, we’ll fight it to the finish.”
