Governor Aminu Masari has said that the ban on telecom services in the remaining seven local government areas (LGAs) of Katsina state which he governs, will be lifted before January 2022.
Speaking during a media parley with journalists, Masari urged residents to do their best to protect their areas from bandit attacks.
Telecommunication services in the state was cut off to starve criminals of means of communication following an operation carried out by security operatives in the state.
The ban on telecommunication services has however been lifted in 10 out of the 17 LGAs in the state which were continously attacked by bandits.
