Villagers in Kuyello community, Brinin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, have lamented the presence of Ansaru militants in their communities. The recent visit of the sect members on motorcycles in the villages has raised serious concern among the inhabitants of the area.
Chairman of Birnin Gwari Emirate Progressive Union , Ishaq Kasai, confirmed the report to DAILY POST, According to him, 'A few days ago, the sect members made an unexpected appearance in the peaceful village, expressing their willingness to establish a foothold among the locals.' He explained that the villagers told them to stay away from their area as they believed their main aim was to recruit their youth into the ranks of the extremist group.
The chairman further explained that the Ansaru group leaders threatened to enter the village by force following the resistance of the residents of Kuyello, who took a bold step by sending representatives of the town, who are mostly clerics, to inform leaders of the group that the people of Kuyello did not want their presence in the town.
