Authorities confirmed that bandits killed the farmers and burnt their houses in Damkal and Tsanwa villages in Batsari local government area of the state at the weekend.

Reacting to the incident in which many homesteads were razed the President warned that “no one in the country has a right to take laws into his hands by the way of self-help or revenge.

“Local communities that catch bandits should hand over the suspects to law enforcement authorities instead of meting out capital punishment, leading to a cycle of revenge and counter revenge.”

He urged community leaders and the local authorities to continue their efforts in partnership with law enforcement agencies that bring the surrender of bandits, leading to peace between farmers and herders.

“The authorities must be allowed to investigate and deal with any breach that occurs. There is no place for violence in a decent society,” said the President.
