The Kaduna State governor, Uba Sani, has said that the menace of insecurity plaguing a large portion of the North can be put to an end only by implementing state policing.
Governor Sani’s statement comes hours after bandits stormed the Gindin Dutse Makyali village of Kufana district in the Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
12 people were killed and nine others brutally injured in the attack
”In the last six months or thereabout, I have been insisting that we can only address the issue of insecurity if we establish state policing,” Governor Sani said in a one-on-one chat on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics
”I am happy that some few weeks ago some governors joined me in agitating for state police and it was a lone voice”
”Some governors have also done a lot in the last few months by establishing or empowering the vigilance services.”
The Kaduna state governor noted that the measures employed by his comrades are ”temporary measures” at best
”This can not and can never address the state of insecurity until we agree to collectively agree to establish state police immediately,” he said.
