How bandits swore with Holy Quran but still kill people in Katsina – Masari

Katsina State Governor, Aminu Bello Masari, has said he would never dialogue with bandits again.

According to him, the terrorists swore twice with the Qur’an in his office but still went about killing and abdcting people.

He disclosed this while hosting the United Nations Development Programme, UNDP, in Katsina over the weekend.

His words, “Because they (terrorists) said they are Muslims, we went as far as asking them to swear to the Holy Qur’an that they will never participate in banditry again.

“All of them did it in this office, but even those that have been in jail for over two years that were brought out are today bandits’ leaders.

“Anybody who says he is going to engage them on anything is free. I will pray for him but I will not do it again.”
