Members of the high table all protocols observed.

I am highly elated for giving this privilege by


the NYCN to deliver a lecture on the rising insecurity situation in kafur L.G.A.

The rising insecurity in Kafur Local Government has been a pressing issue that demands
immediate attention. I would like to use this forum to commensurate with his Excellency the
Governor of Katsina state Alh. Dikko Rada and the Kafur community members for establishment
of an armed vigilante group. Problems associated with this insecurity are multifaceted and
require a comprehensive approach in order to find effective solutions.

One of the key problems is the presence of armed bandits and criminal elements in the area.
These individuals engage in various criminal activities such as robbery, kidnapping, and cattle
rustling, causing fear and unrest among the local population. Another problem is the lack of
adequate security infrastructure and personnel to combat these criminal activities. The limited
presence of security forces makes it difficult to deter and apprehend the perpetrators, allowing
them to operate with impunity. Additionally, the lack of effective intelligence gathering and
sharing mechanisms hinders efforts to proactively address potential security threats.

The prospects for addressing the insecurity in Kafur Local Government lie in implementing a
multi-pronged strategy. Firstly, there is a need for increased collaboration between the local
community and security agencies. This can be achieved through the establishment of community
policing initiatives, where residents actively participate in identifying and reporting suspicious
activities. Furthermore, enhancing the capacity of security forces through training and equipping
them with modern tools and technology is crucial in effectively combating criminal elements.

Another prospect is the investment in socioeconomic development programs. By addressing the


underlying causes of insecurity, such as poverty and unemployment, the motivation for
individuals to engage in criminal activities can be reduced. This can be achieved through the
promotion of skill acquisition programs, job creation initiatives, and the provision of basic
amenities in the area.
Additionally, improving intelligence gathering and sharing mechanisms is essential for proactive
security measures. Strengthening collaboration between security agencies at the local, state, and
federal levels will enable a more effective response to security threats.

In conclusion, the rising insecurity in Kafur Local Government requires a comprehensive approach
that addresses the root causes as well as enhances security infrastructure and personnel. By
fostering collaboration between the community and security agencies, investing in
socioeconomic development programs, and improving intelligence gathering and sharing
mechanisms, the prospects for mitigating the insecurity can be significantly improved. It is
imperative that immediate action is taken to ensure the safety and well-being of the residents in
Kafur Local Government.

May the Almighty Allah guide and protect us.

Ameen.
