Criminal-minded visitors responsible for kidnappings, crimes in Bauchi – Hunter
Residents in Bauchi State have been urged to remain vigilant of the movements of people and strange items in their communities to curb kidnappings and other criminal activities.
A local hunter who specialises in fishing out bandits, kidnappers, and other criminally minded persons Ahmad Mohammed Kwarah made the call following the rise in criminal activities in the state.
Speaking in an interview with DAILY POST in Bauchi, Kwarah said he inherited his security skills from his late elder brother, Ali Kwarah.
He said all eyes must be on the suspicious movement of visitors passing or settling in the state to curb incidents of banditry and kidnapping.
Ali said many communities play host to strangers without necessarily finding out who they are, perhaps due to the peace being enjoyed in their areas.
“In areas where there is a breach of peace, they hardly receive visitors just like that, they have to scrutinize them, unlike we here that are living peacefully. Yes, it’s good to welcome visitors but while hosting them, we have to be extra careful, people should report strangers with questionable character to the relevant authorities, they should not harbour them”, he said.
“We have been contributing to the maintenance of security and peaceful co-existence within and even outside Azare where I come from. As I am talking to you now, you cannot hear any incidents of kidnapping or banditry in Azare, we have succeeded in curbing them”, Ahmad Kwarah said.
The bandit fighter said he alongside his team operates in all parts of Nigeria with the support of the Police and other security agencies.
“We thank God that we are succeeding, many people know that we are succeeding in our operations. We really thank members of the public for their support to us in this fight against bandits and kidnappers, many people are praying for us to succeed, and thank God we are succeeding”, the hunter said.
