While bandits continue to carry out attacks in parts of the state despite the large number of security forces deployed and various exercises launched in the area.
Katsina State Governor Aminu Bello Masari has negotiated with the bandits in the past for peace.
The compromise has not worked out, as the bandits continued to carry out attacks with indiscriminate killings and looting of their property.
