Both Ali Kawajo and Shehu Rakef have also been behind most Bandit activities in Kaduna, Niger and Zamfara States general area and most especially along road Abuja – Kaduna axis.

The Minister particularly congratulated the Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen TA Lagbaja and the Nigerian Army in general for the major achievement and encouraged them “not to rest on their oars in their efforts in fighting insecurity in the country.”
