The statement further reads,"Anyone who wants progress and development of this country should be happy with the actions taken against banditry and stop the unnecessary blame games as well as thr political witch-hunting.

"We all know that banditry in the northwest region , especially Zamfara State requires a united and calculated approached from all stakeholders and former governors of the State to address once and for all.

"We insist that it's not time for political blame game ,but the opportunity to be united and support  the federal government to ensure that bandits are completely eliminated from the region.

"The forum therefore expressed dissatisfaction over the manner the  state government is handling the security of lives and properties in the State and appealed to the Governor to rather explore the opportunity of having his predecessor as a Minister of State for  Defence."
