The state Governor, Senator Uba Sani stated this when he received 58 kidnapped victims who were released by security forces and handed over to the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu.
He noted that through the Kaduna Peace Model which emphasizes the use of non-kinetic approach, Birnin Gwari which used to be ‘a no-go area’ for most people has become peaceful.
The Governor pointed out that Bandits have laid down their arms and markets that have been closed down for over 10 years have now been reopened and business activities have started booming in Birnin Gwari and Giwa local government areas.
He assured that the people of Kauru, Kajuru and parts of Kachia who are experiencing pockets of bandit attacks will soon be sleeping with their two eyes closed because security forces are on top of the situation.
The Governor said that he does not mind if political opponents insult him on social media but promised to take action against those who politicize insecurity in Kaduna State.
Governor Uba Sani promised that his administration will support the victims to get back on their feet, by giving them grants to continue with their businesses and farming activities.
