The Federal Government has on Wednesday declared banditry an act of terrorism in Nigeria.
Abubakar Malami, SAN, the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, said his office was working on gazetting a court judgment that ordered the government to declare bandits terrorists.
He disclosed on the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) while featuring on the ‘Good Morning Nigeria’ programme on Tuesday.
The gazette, signed by AGF Malami was released on Wednesday.
On November 26, 2021, Justice Taiwo Taiwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja had ordered the federal government in an ex parte application by the federal government for Yan Bindiga (Hausa word for gunmen) and Yan Ta’adda (Hausa word for terrorists) to be declared terrorists.
