Fighting fire with fire is an expression many are familiar with and that is what the Coalition of Northern Groups has suggested to the government in its fight against insecurity in the North.
Dr Nawaila Muhammad Bello, a member of the Coalition of Northerners Group while speaking on Nigeria Info’s Morning Crossfire said “our argument is not to give them (repentant bandits) money to stop but engage them in fighting those that are in the bushes.”
Host of the Crossfire, Sheriff Quadri questions this submission, asking if it would not end up “creating a bigger monster,” to which Dr Nawaila disagreed.
