No fewer than 48 persons have beenkilled as gunmen attacked Zango Kataf and Kaura local government areas in South Kaduna State within 24 hours of unrestricted bloody violence.

While eight persons were said to have been killed in Zango Kataf on Monday, 40 had earlier on Sunday evening lost their lives to gunmen inKaura, while many houses were set ablaze.

Speaking on the killings inKaura LGA, the spokesman for the Southern Kaduna Peoples Union, Mr Luka Binniyat,confirmed that no fewer than 40 people were killed Sunday evening in Madamai and Abun communities under Malagun in Kaura LGA.

Speaking with The PUNCH , Binniyat, said the gunmen took position at various vantage points around 4 pm when the locals where at home, others in the farm and some at the local market.

“Whileitwas raining, they beganto open fire at the same time. As people were running, they (gunmen) were shooting,” Binniyat said.

He further explained that the attackers moved into the village and started burning houses and cutting down women and children who were trying to escape into the bush.

“As of thisafternoon,40 corpses of mostly women and children were recovered and they are being conveyed to Kafanchan General Hospital mortuary,” he added.

He said operativesof Operation Safe Haven were few to be effective inview ofthe size of Southern Kaduna.

“The locals also confided in us that the attackers were Fulani. It is also unfortunate that both the police and Operation Safe Haven do not have asimple drone to help them in area surveillance and it looks as if it is deliberately so.

“SOKAPU strongly condemns the lack of seriousness by the Commander, Operation Safe Haven, Maj. Gen. Ibrahim Sallau, who is also the GOC, 3Division, Nigerian Army Jos.

“It is alsounfortunatethat boththepolice and Operation Safe Haven do not have a cheap and simple drone to help them in area surveillance and it looks as if it is deliberately so.

“As of now, the most protected areas of Southern Kaduna are the Hausa and Fulani settler communities. They’ve heavy presence of Operation Safe Haven, police and related security agencies,” he said.

“We are therefore calling on the Nigerian Army to look into this allegation and do the needful. We’re also calling on our youths to remain vigilant, defend their communities, cooperate with security agencies andnever take the law into their hands.”

However, the Kaduna State Government,in a statement on Monday, said the eight persons that lost their lives on Monday in Kacecere village, Zango Kataf LGA,in what appeared to be a reprisal.

Seven villagers, it was gathered were also said to have sustained injuries during the attacks.

The state Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, expressed Governor Nasir El-Rufai’s anger over the renewed attacks in Southern Kaduna.

The commissioner said, “TheKaduna State Government has received reports from security agencies of an attack by unidentified persons in Kacecere village, Zangon Kataf LGA, which has resulted in the deaths of some citizens.

“According to thereports, this attack was in reprisal to earlier attacks in Jankasa village, Zangon Kataf LGA, where one Mr. Yakubu Danjuma was killed, and also in Madamai in Kaura LGA, where 34 persons were killed.”

However, the spokesperson for the Kaduna State Police Command, Mohammed Jalige did not response to several calls put across to him as of the time of filing this report.
