He recalled a recent security show of force in the axis as part of the efforts to clear out the criminals.

“We are very aware of all efforts and commitments of your administration and the gallantry of security personnel to check security challenges.

”And we pray that your efforts in this regard will yield results soon,” the traditional ruler said.
