Reports of attack on Jaji Military Base false ― Kaduna govt

The Kaduna State Government has debunked a report by an online medium that Jaji military base was attacked by armed bandits on Saturday.

Recall, Jaji military base is located at Igabi local government area of Kaduna State.

In a statement issued by the Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, on Sunday said there was no iota of truth in the said report.

The statement quoted the medium as saying that armed bandits attacked the base and gunned down several soldiers.

The statement added that: “The military and security agencies have reported to the Kaduna State Government that there was no such attack and all personnel stationed at the base are safe and accounted for.

“The Kaduna State Government, therefore, debunks strongly the false and grossly misleading publication, and urges the public to disregard the fake news.”
