Tambuwal said: “I had contact with the Presidency and I have secured an invitation to meet with Mr President anytime soon.

“God willing, I will be meeting with him to discuss the issues of banditry and insecurity, particularly as they affect the South-Eastern part of our state in order to ensure that all that is required in terms of men and (that) resources are mobilised promptly to halt this problem.”
