The Southern Kaduna Community Development Associations (CDAs) Forum has raised the alarm over threats by terrorists, militias and bandits to attack some of its communities.
Chairman of the CDAs forum, Dr. Samuel T. Achie in a statement said terrorists are targeting Kachia, Chikun and Kajuru Local Government Areas of Southern Kaduna.
It said over the last four days, the leadership of the Southern Kaduna Community Development Associations Forum has become aware of security alerts circulating in the media on threats by terrorists, militias and bandit gangs to attack communities in Kachia, Chikun and Kajuru Local Government Areas in Southern Kaduna.
*It is with much concern that the leadership of the CDAs Forum views these threats as dangerous because such threats have occurred many times over the last ten years, and they have almost unfailingly been followed by devastating attacks by terrorists in the Southern Kaduna region.
“We are concerned because we have seen no visible efforts being made by the federal, state and local government to apprehend these threats,” the statement said.
The forum further alerted security agencies that hundreds of people have been taken into captivity in these very Local Government Areas in the last three months.
The CDAs Forum said that it is aware that the threats of attacks are coming from different quarters, and must be taken seriously by the government.
“While the leadership of the CDAs forum is aware of some of the efforts by the government to ensure peace across the nation, it still becomes necessary to call the attention of the government and security agencies, as well as other critical stakeholders in Kaduna State to intensify efforts to ensure the entire Kaduna State and Southern Kaduna in particular are kept safe.”
