The Peace and Reconciliation Committee of Bakori Local Government Area has commenced a tour of communities in the council area as part of efforts to strengthen the recently reviewed peace agreement reached with bandit leaders operating in the region.

The committee—led by the Chairman of Bakori LGA, Hon. Abubakar Musa Barde—visited Kakumi, Guga, and Jargaba wards, where it held engagements with traditional rulers, community representatives, youth groups, and other stakeholders.

Speaking during the visits, Hon. Barde said the committee had earlier held a series of meetings with the bandit leaders to review the initial peace accord that was signed in Kakumi. According to him, the review produced “clearer and more detailed terms” intended to bring an end to recurring attacks and insecurity in the area.

Highlights of the Revised Agreement

The chairman outlined several key elements of the updated accord, including:

1. Cessation of Attacks:

Bandits are expected to immediately cease all forms of attacks on communities within Bakori LGA.

2. No Movement With Arms:

While they are permitted to move freely, they must do so without carrying weapons. Any person found moving with arms is to be arrested, prosecuted, and reported to their leaders.

3. Internal Sanctions:

The bandit leaders reportedly committed to sanctioning any member found attacking, extorting, or harassing individuals or communities.

4. Protection of Fulani Residents:

Fulani residents and their families are guaranteed freedom of movement and the ability to conduct their lawful activities—such as attending markets, schools, and public places—without molestation.

5. Guidelines for Vigilante Groups:

Vigilante members are to stop moving around with weapons in public, and must refrain from arresting, harassing, or harming anyone suspected to be a bandit outside the agreed framework.

6. Ban on Gunshots:

Shooting guns at night or during public gatherings is prohibited to reduce fear and tension in the communities.

Hon. Barde urged community leaders across the affected wards to enlighten their people on the content of the agreement and the need to strictly adhere to the provisions to ensure lasting peace.

Calm Returning to Communities

Our correspondent, Shehu Bakori, who accompanied the committee on the tour, reports that normalcy is gradually returning to many areas visited. Farmers were seen harvesting their crops, while traders and artisans carried on with their daily activities.

Additionally, several families who had previously fled their homes due to insecurity were observed returning to their communities.

Residents confirmed that no attack had been reported in the four days since the new agreement was concluded—an early positive sign that the peace effort may be gaining traction.

Authorities say engagements will continue in order to build trust, monitor compliance, and sustain the emerging calm across Bakori and neighbouring communities.

PRESIDENT TINUBU REAPPOINTS MOHAMMED BUBA MARWA AS NDLEA CHAIRMAN
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has renewed the appointment of Brigadier-General Mohammed Buba Marwa (rtd) as the Chairman of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for another five-year term.
Marwa was first appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari in January 2021, after serving as the Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee for the Elimination of Drug Abuse from 2018 to December 2020.
The reappointment means the Adamawa-born former military officer will remain at the helm of the NDLEA until 2031.
Marwa, a former military governor of Lagos and Borno States, is a graduate of the Nigerian Military School and the Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA.
After his commissioning as a second lieutenant in 1973, Marwa served as brigade major of the 23 Armoured Brigade, Aide-de-Camp (ADC) to Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Theophilus Danjuma, and academic registrar of the Nigerian Defence Academy. He also served as Deputy Defence Adviser in the Nigerian Embassy in Washington, DC, and later as Defence Adviser to the Nigerian Permanent Mission to the United Nations.
He holds two postgraduate degrees: a Master of Public and International Affairs from the University of Pittsburgh (1983–85) and a Master of Public Administration from Harvard University (1985–86).
His tenure in the NDLEA has been remarkable for many drug busts, including the arrests of 73,000 drug mules and barons and seizures of over 15 million kilogrammes of various hard drugs.
Under his leadership, the agency has also launched nationwide campaigns to address drug abuse.
"Your reappointment is a vote of confidence in your onerous efforts to rid our country of the menace of drug trafficking and drug abuse. I urge you not to relent in tracking the merchants of hard drugs, out to destroy our people, especially the young ones", President Tinubu

Governor Radda Felicitates Governor Soludo on His Re-election, Hails His Leadership and Vision

The Executive Governor of Katsina State, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, has extended congratulations to his colleague and friend, Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, on his impressive re-election as the Governor of Anambra State.

In his message, Governor Radda described Professor Soludo’s re-election as a victory well-earned through hard work, visionary leadership, and the trust he has built with the people of Anambra State over the years.

He said the outcome of the election, marked by a convincing margin, reflects the people’s strong belief in Soludo’s leadership style, his reform-driven administration, and his steady commitment to good governance.

Governor Radda noted that the overwhelming victory Professor Soludo recorded in Saturday’s poll has now made him the third governor in Anambra State’s political history to win a second term in office, an achievement that speaks volumes about his performance and the confidence the people have in his leadership.

“Governor Soludo re-election is not just a political triumph; it is a validation of performance, character, and genuine service to the people. His ability to translate ideas into impactful results has set him apart as one of Nigeria’s most forward-thinking leaders,” Governor Radda said.

The Katsina Governor commended Soludo relentless efforts in repositioning Anambra State as a hub of innovation, infrastructure development, and economic growth. He described him as a model of intellectual leadership who has shown that knowledge, when combined with compassion and discipline, can transform societies.

Radda also lauded the people of Anambra State for conducting themselves peacefully throughout the election, as well as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and security agencies for ensuring a transparent and credible process. He said their collective conduct demonstrated the growing political maturity and democratic spirit of Nigerians.

According to Governor Radda, the re-election of Professor Soludo offers him a fresh opportunity to consolidate his ongoing projects and policies aimed at improving the lives of the people. He urged him to sustain the momentum of reform and continue to lead with humility, wisdom, and inclusivity.

“As a colleague and a respected member of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, Professor Soludo has shown exemplary commitment to national unity and development. His approach to governance, built on sound economics, transparency, and accountability, continues to inspire other leaders across the country,” Radda noted.

Governor Radda also called on the people of Anambra to rally behind their governor, assuring them that their renewed mandate will further translate into greater progress and prosperity for the state. He expressed optimism that Governor Soludo will keep building bridges of cooperation, not just within Anambra, but also among states across Nigeria.

He pledged his continued support and partnership with the Anambra State Government, especially in the areas of agricultural development, entrepreneurship promotion, education, and institutional capacity building, sectors both governors share a deep passion for.

“On behalf of the government and good people of Katsina State, I celebrate my brother and friend, Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, on this historic and well-deserved re-election. May God grant him strength, wisdom, and divine guidance as he continues to serve his people with vision and courage,” Governor Radda concluded.

Governor Radda Attends Funeral Prayer of Late Justice Mukhtar Muhammad Dodo

The Executive Governor of Katsina State, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, today joined hundreds of mourners at the National Mosque, Abuja, for the funeral prayer (Janaza) of the late Justice Mukhtar Muhammad Dodo, who passed away earlier today in Abuja at the age of 70.

The funeral prayer, held after the Asr prayer, was attended by a large gathering of sympathizers from across Nigeria, including senior members of the judiciary, political leaders, and close associates who came to pay their final respects to the late jurist.

Governor Radda joined the congregation in offering prayers for the repose of the soul of the deceased, describing his passing as a great loss not only to Katsina State but to the Nigerian judiciary as a whole.

The late Justice Mukhtar Muhammad Dodo, a native of Katsina State, had a long and illustrious career in the judiciary. He served as Chief Registrar of the Supreme Court of Nigeria and later as a Judge of the High Court of Justice, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. Throughout his career, he was known for his integrity, discipline, and deep sense of justice, which earned him respect among his peers and within the legal community.

Speaking shortly after the prayer, Governor Radda paid glowing tribute to the late jurist, describing him as an upright, patriotic, and humble individual who dedicated his life to promoting justice and strengthening Nigeria’s judicial system.

“Justice Dodo was a beacon of fairness, integrity, and professionalism. His remarkable service to the nation and his commitment to justice will remain a guiding light for generations of legal pract**ioners,” the Governor said.

Governor Radda prayed for Almighty Allah to forgive the deceased and grant him eternal rest in Aljannatul Firdaus. He also prayed that Allah comfort the family, grant them patience, and bless them with the strength to bear the loss.

The Governor further urged the family of the late Justice Dodo to uphold his noble values of honesty, humility, and service to humanity.

May Allah grant the soul of Justice Mukhtar Muhammad Dodo peaceful rest and bless his family with patience and strength to endure this painful loss.

Among those who attended the funeral were the former Governor of Katsina State, Rt. Hon. Aminu Bello Masari; former Minister of Aviation, Sen. Hadi Sirika; former FCT Minister, Dr. Modibbo Aliyu Umar; former National Legal Adviser of the APC, Barrister Ahmed Usman El-Marzuq; Managing Director of NIRSAL Plc, Alhaji Abbas Masanawa; former Board Member of the National Iron Ore Mining Company (NIOMCO), Alhaji Iro Danfuloti; and Senator Abdulaziz Musa Yar’adua, representing Katsina Central Senatorial District.

Governor Radda Deepens Katsina’s Solid Minerals Drive at Nigerian-German Bi-National Meeting in Berlin

-----As Deputy Governor Jobe Showcases Katsina’s Vast Solid Mineral Potentials at the Meeting

Katsina State Governor, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, has reaffirmed his administration’s strong commitment to unlocking the state’s vast solid mineral resources and transforming them into engines of growth and sustainable development.

Represented by his Deputy, Alhaji Faruk Jobe, Governor Radda made this known yesterday while delivering remarks at the Nigerian-German Bi-National Meeting held in Berlin, Germany.

The high-level meeting brought together senior government officials and industry leaders from both countries to explore new investment opportunities in Nigeria’s solid minerals and energy sectors.

The Governor commended Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Mr. Adebayo Adelabu; the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Yusuf Maitama Tuggar; and Germany’s Minister of Economy, Johann Wadephul, MdB, for organizing the event and for fostering stronger bilateral cooperation between Nigeria and Germany.

Governor Radda described the meeting as a timely platform to deepen collaboration, noting that Germany’s global expertise in mining technology and industrial innovation offers Katsina a unique opportunity for partnership and sustainable economic growth.

He revealed that Katsina State is already working with Geoscan GmbH, a reputable German company conducting advanced geological surveys across the state. The project, he explained, will produce a detailed geological report that will boost investor confidence and guide future exploration efforts.

Highlighting Katsina’s natural endowments, the Governor noted that the state hosts one of Africa’s largest deposits of pharmaceutical-grade kaolin, suitable for global drug production. To harness this potential, the state government has established a kaolin processing plant dedicated to pharmaceutical use.

Governor Radda also mentioned other mineral resources found in Katsina, including gold, copper, iron ore, tin, lithium, barite, limonite, and monoxide. He described these as valuable assets for industrialization, value addition, and large-scale job creation.

To attract credible investors, the Governor said his administration has built a transparent and investor-friendly regulatory framework anchored on modern mining policies. A key part of this reform is the creation of the Katsina State Exploration and Mining Company (KEMCO), which serves as a Special Purpose Vehicle to drive mineral development in the state.

Through KEMCO, the state government can acquire exploration and mining licenses, enter joint ventures and public-private partnerships, and participate fully across the entire value chain—from exploration to processing and export.

Governor Radda emphasized that KEMCO offers investors a stable, transparent, and well-structured environment aligned with global best practices and Nigeria’s national mining laws.

He also disclosed that Katsina is among the few states in Nigeria that have developed a comprehensive Policy and Strategic Roadmap for the Sustainable Development of Solid Minerals. This policy guides responsible mining, environmental protection, and economic diversification.

“The implementation of our solid minerals policy is already underway, and we welcome all partners, investors, and stakeholders to join us in building a prosperous and sustainable future for Katsina,” he said.

Governor Radda reiterated Katsina’s readiness to collaborate with German mining experts to introduce advanced technologies, innovative practices, and sustainable mining models that ensure profitability while protecting the environment.

He extended an open invitation to German and international investors to explore the numerous business opportunities available in Katsina, assuring them of a government that is open, supportive, and responsive to investors’ needs.

“Katsina State is ready for business. I encourage investors to engage with KEMCO, review our solid minerals policy, and identify key areas where we can collaborate for mutual growth,” the Governor stated.

He concluded by expressing appreciation to the Nigerian and German ministers, dignitaries, and participants for their commitment to strengthening economic ties. He expressed confidence that this partnership will unlock Katsina’s mineral wealth and contribute to shared prosperity for both nations.

The event was attended by the Deputy Chief of Staff, Alhaji Mukhtar Aliyu Saulawa; Chairman, Board of Directors, Katsina State Exploration and Mining Company (KEMCO), Alhaji Umar Dangi Abbas; the Managing Director of KEMCO, Bello Doro; and other members of the management team.
