Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has reaffirmed his administration’s unwavering resolve to back security forces in the ongoing campaign against insurgency, banditry and other violent crimes plaguing the state.
Presiding over the weekly State Security Council meeting on Thursday, June 25, at the Government House in Gusau, the governor convened the state’s top security brass for a high-level strategic session aimed at recalibrating the state’s counter-insurgency approach.
In a terse but firm statement, Governor Lawal disclosed that deliberations centered on reinforcing troop deployments in high-risk zones, fast-tracking intelligence-sharing mechanisms and overhauling rapid-response protocols to better safeguard civilian populations.
“I want to make it clear to every service commander in this room; the welfare and operational readiness of our troops remain non-negotiable. My administration stands ready to authorize every required resource logistical, material and otherwise to ensure they operate at full capacity,” Lawal declared.
The governor underscored that his foremost priority remains the restoration of lasting peace across Zamfara and he assured security chiefs of his open-door policy, urging them to channel operational needs directly to his office without bureaucratic bottlenecks.
With the meeting concluding, sources indicate that concrete action plans are being finalized to boost joint task force patrols and community intelligence networks, signaling a renewed offensive push in the coming weeks.
