From:Femi Oyelola in Kaduna
Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has said some politicians under the auspices of opposition derive joy in the escalation of insecurity in the State to further their political interests.
The Governor who made this known yesterday vowed to deal with this category of politicians.
He, therefore, warned such politicians who politicize security matters in the name of opposition to desist from doing so because their antics are jeopardizing the lives of innocent people.
Uba Sani made these remarks at the Council Chambers of Sir Kashim Ibrahim House when he received 58 kidnapped victims who were released by security forces and handed over to the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu
Governor Uba Sani maintained that ‘’the merchants of insecurity will not be happy with the release of these innocent souls because they are benefiting from insecurity.’’
‘’As an elected Governor, I swore to protect the lives and property of the people of Kaduna State, and we have been doing our best to fulfill this obligation.
‘’Through our Kaduna Peace Model, which emphasizes the use of a non-kinetic approach, Birnin Gwari, which used to be a no-go area’ for most people, has become peaceful.
‘’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 parts of Giwa local government,t, which was ravaged by insecurity,’’ he added.
Governor Uba Sani promised 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.’’
According to the Governor, ‘’the success that the non-kinetic approach has yielded is a source of anger to most people who don’t have the welfare or wellbeing of our people at heart. They only go on social media to express their anger.’’
