There have been reports that armed men suspected to be bandits, on Saturday attacked the Forward Operating Base in Mutumji, Dansadau Local Government of Zamfara State and gunned down some military officers, including policemen.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST learnt that unspecified number of the assailants were also neutralized during the attack.<\/p>\n

Buhari\u2019s body language emboldening Fulani jihadists- Rights group<\/p>\n

Reacting, in a post on his Facebook page, Reno said he hopes that the report is not true, stressing that if the attack is confirmed to be true, the bandits should be renamed \u201cradical jihadists terrorists\u201d.<\/p>\n

His post reads, \u201cI sincerely hope the reports that bandits overran a military base in Zamfara yesterday, and killed 9 airforce officers, 2 policemen and 1 soldier is untrue.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut if it is, then the time has come to stop calling these people bandits and start calling them by their real name, radical jihadists terrorists.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere is safe in Nigeria? Nowhere! General Buhari went to the Southeast to promise Ohana\u2019eze Ndi\u2019Igbo security. Is Katsina secure? Is Zamfara safe? Is Sokoto peaceful?<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he can\u2019t secure his own region, then is it the Southeast he will secure? Buhari himself is part of the problem!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
