The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, says President Muhammadu Buhari has directed security agencies to shoot whoever seen with AK-47.
Shehu stated this in an interview with the BBC.
The presidential aide said Buhari also ordered a clampdown on bandits who had refused to surrender.
“The president has ordered security forces to go into the bushes and shoot whoever they see with sophisticated weapons like AK-47.
“He ordered that whoever is seen with terrible weapons at all should be shot immediately,” He said.
