 The Senate has urged the federal government to, as a matter of urgency, send fighter jets to flush out terrorists from their hideouts. The call was made on Tuesday during plenary. It was in resolutions reached following a point of order raised on the urgent need for the federal government to take drastic actions to bring to an end the act of banditry and kidnapping in Fascari local government area. The point of order was raised by Senator Bello Mandia Katsina South. The Senate notes that the act of banditry and kidnapping has become a daily instance now in Katsina with its consequence of loss of lives, means of livelihood, and displacement of communities. Further notes that on Sunday, 31st January 2022, government struck around Gaudia, a community in Fascari local government area of Katina State, where 38 members of the community were kidnapped. Aware that the federal government had made frantic effort in curving the manors by setting up oppression in Sharan Daji, an interagency tax force to tackle cases of banditry, Kato Roslin, and kidnapping in Katina State, worried that the continuous security challenges are related attacks by bandits on towns, villages, communities in Fascari local government area have meted on tall hardship on the people and have subjected the affected areas under serious survival threats. Yes, Mr. President, I can say that enough is enough. What is happening now in Katina, this shows that yes, we have to not only condemn it, we have to do something very serious. Because we cannot just sit down after declaring these bandit terrorists and allow them again to continue with all these rubbish acts. So Mr. President, we have to really look at it critically. I think that yes, to me, I'm saying that yes, the security agent, of course, maybe we are doomed that they are doing their best, but to me, I think that they need to do another best. Because look at 38 people, how can they just go and kidnap 30 other people? After declaring these people as terrorists, what can we just do here? The few civilians in the village and go and burn all of them there. We have enough security agents to take care of this place. If it is the issue of recruitment in the army, we should also do the same. We have provided support to the security agent. But remember last year, hello, on supplementary progression, we approved over eight billion. And this year's budget, I know we have close about 1.2 billion. And we are getting little in terms of, you know, the outcome. The expectation of this Senate is that there is supposed to be a remarkable difference in success in terms of the fight against insurgency banditry and militancy in Nigeria. The military is getting better funding. When we declared the bandits as terrorists, my understanding was that they are going to be dealt with ruthlessly now. I wonder whether that is the case. The military, like some of our colleagues have said, need to work out.
