"Miqdad this has been the case with Maiduguri. The people found to be involved in BOKO Haram were never thought to be, and mingled normally with everyone. It was by Allah's mercy, we were able to remove all forms of fear and dealt with them. Allah ya kyauta mana Amma akwai matsala"

@Saiyph said:

"This is not a prayer nor a wish but from what I’ve been seeing and reading, I don’t think banditry will end soon. "May Allah keep on exposing them. Wicked lots."

@dmancomeslow1 said:

"Mind you things like this would continue to happen because most of the ordinary citizens have lost faith in the ability and sincerity of the government to provide security(s) for them : food security, health security, future security, physical security, sociological security etc"

@UncleAminu said:

"It's a duty everyone must join in fighting banditry in Katsina state and other parts of northern Nigeria. Danmusa became a dangerous zone of bandits. May Almighty Allah bring an end to this insecurity."
