Troops of the Special Forces deployed by the Defence Headquarters arrive Southern Kaduna on August 14, 2020.

The Special Forces approved by the Defence Headquarters to halt the senseless killings and restore peace in Southern Kaduna have arrived Kafanchan ahead of their deployment to the various flashpoints in the area later today.

They were received at Sector 7, the headquarters of Operation Safe Haven, by the Kaduna State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Mr Samuel Aruwan.

Addressing the troops, the Commissioner charged them to take the battle to the bandits and ensure that peace and security are restored to southern Kaduna.

He also thanked the Defence headquarters for graciously approving the deployment of the troops to Southern Kaduna, and however, assures the support and cooperation of the state government in making the operation a huge success.

Aruwan also called on non-state actors, especially residents of the affected communities to give their maximum support to the troops during the period of the operation through intelligence sharing mechanism.

Kaduna has been experiencing a series of attacks with a recent one carried out four weeks ago.

On July 19, 21 people were killed while 28 others sustained various degrees of injuries when gunmen attacked Kukum Daji Village of Kaura Local Government Area of the state.

According to the President of the Community, Mr. Yashen Titus, the gunmen suspected to be herdsmen, invaded the venue of a wedding party in the community at about 10 pm.

We have seen too many make belive scenarios that we have lost hope in this government.
While we hope against hope that this is a genuine effort to help the good people of southern Kaduna (at least at the moment), we still encourage the likes of Dr Malaifa to announce the name of that Northern Governor...very important.

Deprofessional:
This is a charade. I for one will never fall for this.

Southern Kaduna should request for only Christian soldiers in the special force to protect them. Then will they be protected.

You cannot bring a Muslim to stop a Jihad they so much believe in.

It has been revealed that a sitting governor in the north is the commander of Boko haram, and the current governor of Kaduna once paid bandicts to stop killing Nigerians.

Southern Kaduna should as a matter of urgency set up a militia for their survival.

It is painful that what Ojukwu saw in 1967 is what some Nigerians are seeing now in 2020 and many more are blind to the realities of the present.

The only solution to Nigerias problem is division if the country. That's the only solution.
