Governor Radda: Majority of Bandits in Katsina Are Locals, Not Foreigners
Governor Dikko Radda of Katsina State has revealed that the majority of those involved in banditry across the state are not outsiders but individuals rooted within the local communities.
Speaking during an appearance on a News Program on Tuesday, Radda stated that approximately 90 percent of the bandits terrorising Katsina are familiar faces — people whose families are well-known within the state.
“These individuals know the terrain and the people. They are not strangers. In fact, most of them are from our own areas. We know their fathers and grandfathers, and they still live among us,” the governor said.

He identified insecurity as a key barrier to progress in the state, noting that while governors are regarded as chief security officers, actual control over military and police forces remains outside their authority.
In response to persistent insecurity, Radda said his administration has established a local security outfit, recruiting youths from communities affected by banditry. This initiative, he explained, is aimed at leveraging local knowledge to improve intelligence gathering and response.
He emphasized the role of community involvement in dismantling the network of informants and logistical supporters who operate within local communities, aiding criminal elements.
According to the governor, success in the fight against insecurity depends on rooting out collaborators and using trusted locals to confront the threat directly.
