No bandits’ barricade on Kaduna-Abuja road ― Kaduna govt

Published by

The Kaduna State Government has debunked social media reports of bandits’ barricade on the Kaduna-Abuja Road.

“The buzz in circulation is false and was presented by a group of social media enthusiasts who celebrate negative news.”

This was contained in a statement issued by the commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, on Thursday.

The statement noted that preliminary operational feedback showed that fleeing bandits escaping a military onslaught attempted to pass through a narrow corridor around the Kasarami general area of Kaduna-Abuja road.

“The troops, on receiving this intelligence, hurriedly moved to the location and engaged them in the adjoining forest.

“The Kaduna State Government will update members of the general public when more detailed feedback is received.

“The Kaduna State Government does not deny the existence of security challenges and continues to work assiduously with relevant military and security agencies,” he said.
