He said from the briefing he has received the challenge before him will be on how best to handle the recurrent clashes between fulani herdsmen and farmers clashes on the one hand and other unscrupulous criminal elements-kidnappers, cattle rustlers and armed robbers on the other.

“For the arms we are aware that some of these unscrupulous criminal elements are caring arms. But we will rely on everybody for intelligence and I assure you will rout them with such propensity and mop up the arms.

He also promised to encourage constructive engagements between local communities and cattle herders so as to foster mutual understanding and nip in the bud any possible clash between them.
