His words, “As the world and Nigeria battle Coronavirus pandemic, it is tragic and unfortunate that bandits have remained active in parts of the country, killing innocent people and throwing families into despair.

“We will not abandon you to your fate because we are determined to bring these mass murderers to their knees and crush them totally.”

“This operation will be full time and sustained military offensive that is intended to deny the bandits any breathing space to reorganize and regroup.”
