Allegations have been made against Hon. Aminu Boza, a member of the Sokoto State House of Assembly, regarding his involvement in the kidnapping and murder of Alhaji Isa Muhammad Bawa, the late Sarkin Gobir of Gatawa District.
Bawa’s son claims that the bandits responsible for the crime confessed to receiving guns and payment from Boza.
However, Boza has vehemently denied any involvement in criminal activities or association with the bandits.
In a statement, he emphasized his commitment to fighting against banditry and his desire to see lasting peace restored to the community.
He stressed the need for collective action and unity in achieving this goal.
Boza also highlighted his consistent stance against negotiating with bandits, emphasizing that they are criminals who cannot be trusted.
He expressed his willingness to continue fighting against banditry, even if it means making the ultimate sacrifice.
The allegations against Boza are serious and require thorough investigation to determine their validity.
If true, they have serious implications for the integrity of the political process and the safety of the community.
However, it is also important to recognize that allegations are not the same as evidence, and that Boza has denied any wrongdoing.
Ultimately, the fight against banditry requires a multifaceted approach that involves government, security agencies, and community leaders working together to address the root causes of the problem and bring those responsible to justice.
