Gobir said that such information like the routes being used by the rustlers would enable security operatives to check the menace.
He said that the local government administration would continue to support security agencies deployed in the area to facilitate their operations.
The chairman explained that the council had already mobilised the support of royal fathers in sensitising their subjects on security conciousness and the need to support and cooperate with security agencies by providing them with relevant security information.
