The military high command has established new commands in Kaduna State to address insecurity.
The three new commands are located in Samaru Zango-Kataf, Giwa, and Birnin-Gwari. Additionally, the Air Force will establish a base in Millennium City, Chikun Local Government Area.
The Southern Kaduna Journalists’ Forum (SKJF) has praised the collaboration between Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State and the Chief of Defense Staff, General Christopher Musa, for their efforts in addressing insecurity in the state.
In a statement issued by SKJF chairman Ango Bally and secretary Lilian Silas, the forum expressed joy over the establishment of the military bases.
“These strategic moves will significantly help in addressing the protracted banditry, kidnapping and other security threats in the region and enhance agricultural activities in the state,” the statement reads.
The forum is optimistic that the deployment of additional military personnel will significantly improve security and enable farmers to access their lands without fear, especially in communities like Maro-Kajuru, Kauru, Sanga, Giwa and Birnin Gwari, which have been witnessing persistent banditry attacks.
