Outage of communication has done more harm to our people than good. There is nothing good about it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>When asked to speak on the governor\u2019s position that the measure has led to reduction in the activities of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/11\/12\/bandits-butcher-village-head-kill-nine-villagers-in-zamfara\/\">bandits<\/a>, the former lawmaker said the state government\u2019s position doesn\u2019t represent what is happening in communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is the governor and I don\u2019t know where he draws his information from. I\u2019m telling you as an indigene and citizen of Zamfara state,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat are all these things about \u2014 this break in communication? Day before yesterday, they said the Zamfara state government sent a delegation to one of the key bandits that controls a very large area to ask him to embrace amnesty or negotiation or whatever.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe told them that he doesn\u2019t give a hoot about the breakdown of the communication because he uses Thuraya and that is the truth of the matter. They (referring to bandits) use Thuraya all over the place now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is the breakdown of the communication all about \u2014 suppressing the people maybe not to be able to come to the aid of themselves?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen there was communication, at least, if there was going to be an attack in a village or there is an attack, the people from the village can call for help all over the place. Now nothing and this thing continues day in, day out, every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the minister of communication needs to fear God on this issue because to us, there is like a connivance with him. Just day before yesterday seven mobile policemen were killed and we saw their corpses and everything.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happened? They were ambushed and they don\u2019t have communication gadgets; they don\u2019t have anything.
