This could be test run of what they intend to do in states of concern like Benue et'al. Because as i dey like dis, I cant see any benefit in shutting down communication for 2 weeks in a state.

This only aids the Bandits to carry out the Jihadic assignment without any hinderance as people will not be able to send out SOS for help by mobile phones ..Buhari just Essentially threw a blanket over the place to allow the bandits finish their assignment .


This is how this same govt effected a no fly zone over Zamfara state which did nothing but protect huge Bandit camps from being photographed from the air

BREAKING: Nigerian Government Orders Telcos To Shut Down Mobile Phone Services In Zamfara As Bandits Take Over State | Sahara Reporters

Mee:

This is not enough. Declare State of Emergency in Zamfara state, lockdown the state, send Tens of thousands of soldiers to Zamfara state and hunt down these murderous armed bandits. They now pose existential threat not only to innocent and defenseless Nigerians but to the whole of humanity.

Degrading and destroying armed banditry in Zamfara state will lower the murderous criminality of these murderous terrorists in the neighboring states of Niger, Kaduna Sokoto, and Kastina states. Zamfara state is the epicenter, that is their base.

This will cripple people's business... isn't there another way for the agencies to fight insurgency?

Well, If you have a good business idea or plan but no capital to start or grow it.... do yourself a favour, apply for the United Nations BIS Grant 2021. Its worth about N12.5M. Application is closing very soon.

It's 100% FREE

In other words, no news coverage (except by the federal or state government), no social media reports, no internet, no phone calls, no messaging, no emergency or distress calls in Zamfara State, for two weeks or probably until further notice. angry

even in a fiat war shutting down communication is unnecessary, these guys aren't invincible, they live in the forest like Animals and the reason the kidnapped on daily basis was to used the victims for Shield


we unfortunately have incompetent security personnel if not drone is alone to hit these people whenever they're regrouping for operations but Nigeria govt keep making excuses for them, from we can't attack them because we are protecting forestry to another jargons



the only reason I will be cool with this strange decision is if the local Taliban had spy in Zamfara communities in large numbers then shutting down communication could help reduce the invasion of these pampered monsters

This was the first thought that came to me

If the presidency is not biased, the mole in the government will not be able to leak any information to these terrorists!

But we live in a state where the president proscribe sucesionist but sees these terrorists as people doing their business!

We live in a country where government make excuses for terrorists and thieves!

Let's see how it plays out!

But they told you electronic transfer of electoral votes cannot work because Nigeria lacks network coverage..

If Zamfara at the tail border end of Nigeria could have network, whereelse could not?

Zamfara despite being the first State to adopt Sharia way back in 1999, 22 years later has become a wasteland where every form of criminality is reigning supreme.
