Governor Agbu Kefas of Taraba has called on the Armed Forces of Nigeria to increase its presence in the border towns between Nigeria and Cameroon to protect the citizens against activities of criminal elements from Cameroon.
He said the people of the state desired to live in peace and continue to maintain good relationship with the neighboring countries to be able to carry out their business activities with them.“So, we want you to look into that and see how we can increase presence of troops so that we will be able to curtail their excesses, so we can talk of how we can make the lives of our people better,” he said.
He said the troops in Taraba had in recent time embarked on serious operations to clean up the presence of bandits, especially in the ungoverned spaces within the states. Responding, the CDS, Gen. Musa, commended the efforts of the governor towards addressing the security challenges in the state and promised to ensure that the state and the nation in general become peaceful.
