(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Federal Government has stated it won’t negotiate with terrorists and bandits.
National Security Adviser (NSA), Major General Babagana Monguno (Rtd), who disclosed this during the weekly ministerial briefing at the State House in Abuja, said government would rather arrange all necessary forces to eliminate criminals.
