The Zamfara State Governor, Bello Matawalle, has pledged to donate five operational vehicles to the Niger Republic government.

Matawalle made the pledge when he met the Niger Republic President, Mohamed Bazoum, on Monday as part of efforts to end all forms of banditry in Nigeria and the country.

The Press Secretary to the governor, Jamilu Iliyasu Birnin Magaji, said the two leaders met at the Presidential Palace, Niamey.

The meeting was meant to discuss issues of insecurity, especially in North-West Nigeria and the Niger Republic and resolved to explore more areas of support and cooperation between the Niger Republic and Zamfara State in particular.

Governor Matawalle briefed President Bazoum on the measures taken by his administration to end all forms of criminal activities in the region.

“Governor Bello Matawalle said his administration would donate five brand new vehicles to the Government of Niger Republic to provide special border patrol at Maradi and other parts of the Niger Republic which share a border with Zamfara, Katsina and Sokoto states.

“The governor said the vehicles would be handed over to the Governor of Maradi Region in a ceremony to hold later with the approval of President Mohamed Bazoum,” the statement further read.
