Kaduna seeks army’s support to combat banditry in state
Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, who made the appeal on Friday at the Division headquarters in Kaduna said that there are concerns regarding Igabi, Birnin Gwari, Giwa and Chikun Local Governments because bandits are hibernating in some communities in the four area councils.
According to him, “In 2015, when we came on board, the state was faced with security challenges like cattle rustling, banditry and other criminalities. Aruwan specifically praised the military high command for the foundation laying and commissioning of the Forward Operating Base, FOB, in Kafanchan in February/May 2017 respectively.
