He called on the federal and Kaduna state governments, including security agencies, to double their efforts in securing lives and properties, saying that many communities in Southern Kaduna are being attacked by the suspected Fulani herdsmen.

According to him, “These attacks are too much for us to bear, no one is safe in our communities. Nobody can go to his farm now, or do anything that will help him.”

The Kaduna State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mohammed Jalige, promised to get in touch with the Area Commander to get more information about the attack.
