Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum has unveiled 1000 volunteer hunters to complement the efforts of security agencies in protecting farmers against attacks on their farms.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that with the return of relative peace, some farmers have expanded their activities in the outskirts of Maiduguri and neighbouring Jere, Mafa and Konduga LGAs.
Addressing the hunters at a ceremony in Khaddamari village on Thursday, Zulum lauded them for the sacrifice in supporting his administration to sustain peace and security in the state.
Zulum assured them of logistic support and monthly allowances to ginger them in the task.
“What we are witnessing today is screened 1000 members of volunteer hunters that are willing to protect the farming communities in four local government areas”, he said.
