The President talked through Governor Aminu Bello Masari of Katsina State when he visited Yar Santa and Tsamiyar Jino towns in Kankara Local Government to mourn with the general population over ongoing fear based oppressor assaults on the networks.
As per an announcement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Abdu Labaran Malumfashi, Masari guaranteed the exploited people that the culprits would be conveyed to book.

“We will not hesitate to deal appropriately with anyone found to be connected, or in anyway involved, in the banditry”, the statement quoted the governor as telling his guests.
“Peace and nomalcy must return to the area, as securing lives and property is the essence of government, and failure to do that is tantamount to shirking the responsibility of the oath of office.
“Be rest assured that government will not abandon you in your hour of need, because we will take the fight to the bandits where ever they may be,’’ Buhari said.
The president also stated that “Security and the maintenance of law and order are beyond the capacity of the men and officers of the security agencies. Therefore, there is the need for everyone, especially leaders in the society, to contribute towards ensuring the safety and security of their respective environment”.
