Alhaji Muhammad Rabiu, the Kaduna State Police Commissioner as described as false the recent news stating that 163 worshippers in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The police chief challenged the purveyor of such false claims to give a comprehensive list and particulars of the supposed kidnap victims. He gave this challenge while having a session with journalists after the State Security Council meeting at Sir Kashim Ibrahim House on Monday.
The Chairman of Kajuru LGA, Dauda Madaki, shared that when he heard rumors about an attack, he quickly coordinated with the police and other security agencies to check on the Kurmin Wali community. Fortunately, they discovered that no such attack had taken place..
“We visited the church where the so-called kidnap took place. There was no evidence of any attack. I asked the village head, Mai Dan Zaria, and he said there was no such incident.
“I also called the youth leader of the area, Bernard Bona, who was interviewed by the journalists that accompanied me, and he said that no such thing happened.
“So, I challenge anyone to name the people that were kidnapped. I have been waiting for this list, and no one has come forward with a name.
“I believe that the rumour of the kidnap is being sponsored by people who are not happy with the relative peace that Kajuru has been enjoying since the coming of this administration,” he added.
