Zamfara Governor Hands Over 200 Operational Vehicles To Security Agencies (Pics)


Governor Bello Mohammed (Matawallen Maradun) has handed over 200 operational vehicles procured by his administration in support of all operational security agencies in the state.

Beneficiaries of the vehicles include the Army, the Police, the Dss, the NCDC, the Customs and Excise, the Immigration, the Correctional Center and the FRSC.

Governor Matawalle said his administration has renewed its war on banditry with a vigorous pursuit of its carrot and Stick approach policy to end the menace.


He said that apart from the vehicles donated today, his administration has instituted a monthly inferest to the security operatives and has done a lot in providing them with decent office and house accommodations, silent falcon drones and other operational gadgets.

Governor Matawalle commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his cooperation to ensure the end of banditry in the state. He said the President has listened to him all the time and has positively responded to all his requests with the latest sending of two Police squadrons to the state and 780 men to tackle the bandits in flash areas of the state.

Governor Matawalle said that no government is worth its name if it will fold its arms and allow its citizens to wallow in uncertainty and often serious attacks which leads to loss of lives and property.

Governor Matawalle said those who squarely blame President Muhammadu Buhari or the security operatives over insurgency and banditry must go back and fulfil their own responsibility to ending the problem first.

Governor Matawalle therefore, urged all and sundry to help in ending the activities of bandits by supporting the security operatives with timely and genuine intelligence and other sundry support to ensure victory over the bandits.

He also warned those bandits who refuse to accept the peace accord of his administration to prepare for the worst as the new arrangement will ensure that no one of them will be spared.

Responding on behalf of the recipients, representative of the Chief of Army Staff, Major General Nuhu Ambagzo thanked Governor Bello Matawalle for the giant stride in the current fight against the bandits. He promised that both kinetic and non-kinetic services of the Military will be fully improved.

'I Tried My Best' - Arsenal Boss Arteta Believes He Did All He Could To Include Axed Ozil

The 32-year-old did not feature for the Gunners after lockdown and was subsequently omitted from the club's 25-man Premier League squad. Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta believes he did all he could to give Mesut Ozil a fair shot before he axed the German from his squad.  Ozil's name was not among Arsenal's 25-man Premier League squad that was released earlier this month, which followed the playmaker's exclusion from Arsenal's Europa League squad. As the 32-year-old enters the final months of his contract with the Gunners, it now appears likely that he has played his final game for the team. Ozil did play a part for Arsenal last season, at one point starting 10 consecutive Premier League games for the Gunners before the coronavirus lockdown in March. The playmaker did not make a single appearance for Arsenal after lockdown, however, but Arteta has still insisted he gave Ozil every chance to impress before he was omitted from his team. "What I can tell you that I

Should Arsenal Sell Eddie Nketiah To West Ham

 Once he hit the U18s he was known as a prolific goalscorer, and was quickly promoted to the U23s, where he carried on scoring despite his age, and Arsene Wenger introduced him to the senior side. Fans started to take notice when he came on as a sub in a League Cup game against Norwich and scored both goals and we were excited for his future. But that promise has never quite materialised. Eddie has continued to be prolific against Smaller sides (i.e. League Cup, Europa League and England U21 qualifiers) but in the League he has managed just 4 goals in 33 appearances, although mostly off the bench. The superstriker never seems to emerge, but I guess we have to remember he is still only 21 and has rarely had a run in the senior side, but I don’t think fans are as excited about him displacing Aubameyang or Lacazette any more. So, the rumours today are that West Ham are considering making an offer for Eddie, after selling Hillier to Ajax for 20m, and we could probably do with selling a few

Arteta Must Be Strong To Survive Allegri Rumours’ – Arsenal Boss Can’t Show Weakness, Says Smith

The former Gunners striker has urged an under-fire Spaniard to prove that he is the right man for the job and end links to an ex-Juventus coach Alan Smith claims it is “an open secret” that former Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is being recommended to Arsenal amid their ongoing struggles, with Mikel Arteta told he is going to have to show no weakness in order to “survive” the rumours. The Gunners have continued to stumble out of the blocks in 2020-21, with their worst start made to a Premier League campaign. Inability to establish any kind of momentum has the north London outfit languishing in the bottom-half of the table and glancing anxiously over their shoulder at the drop zone below them. Unsurprisingly, questions are being asked of Arteta’s ongoing presence, with a rookie coach finding out the hard way just how tough life at the top can be. Arsenal have offered no indication that they are contemplating another managerial change, but Smith says potential successors – including
