The Kebbi State Government has hailed members of the vigilante service in the Kanzanna general area for neutralizing a notorious kidnapper, Dogo Oro, who terrorised two local government areas of the state.
The commendation was contained in a statement by Ahmed Idris, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, on Saturday in Birnin Kebbi.
He said Oro had made life difficult for people living in Bunza and Kalgo Local Government Areas.
Idris said the government was happy with the report that the criminal was eliminated by some members of the vigilante service at Tunga village in Tilli ward of Bunza LGA.
“The successful operation has added a lot of hope for our communities to resettle in their various homes and villages and go about their normal businesses, especially in the Kanzanna general area,” he added.
Idris said the recent successes recorded against criminal elements may not be unconnected with the holistic approach of security agencies to make the state safer for all.
He said that Governor Nasir Idris had pledged to render more support to all security agencies, including the vigilante service, working to secure the state.
