He lauded the present administration for prompt release of fund to security agencies, adding that such support and concern would always boost the morale of security personnel towards protecting the lives and property of people across the state.
“Infact many villagers have started returning to thier homes and also continued with their farming activities. Since four days ago the army and the Nigeria Airforce have been neutralising many bandits in our areas,” Bena said.
