A team from the Kaduna State Security Council, which visited Kasuwan Magani, confirmed the cessation of hostilities.

The team, led by the General Officer Commanding, I Division Nigerian Army, Major General Mohammed Mohammed, included Commissioner of Police Austin Iwar; State Director of Department of State Services Mohammed Wakil; Commander Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, AM Bunu; Special Adviser on Internal Security, Col. Yakubu Yusuf (rtd) and Senior Special Assistant, Media and Publicity to the Kaduna Governor, Samuel Aruwan,

The GOC, while speaking to leaders of the community, tasked religious and traditional leaders to deepen the message of peace and integration, and warned residents against undermining and destroying the four decades of togetherness and peaceful coexistence in the area.

The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Austin Iwar, who also briefed journalists, confirmed the arrest of 18 persons, adding that they were undergoing interrogation while security presence is being strengthened in the area.


Iwar said 11 victims of the crisis were “buried around 12 midnight” while one person who sustained injuries later died at the hospital on Tuesday.


Our correspondent, who was in Kajuru, noticed that the centre of the town, which has the market and business places, has been deserted with only burnt structures littering the area.


There were also several burnt vehicles left by the road side.


Iwar said no stone will be left unturned in unravelling the immediate and remote causes of the crisis.


The commissioner said the police were aware of “skirmishes” in the area two weeks ago and had made some arrests “but we did not know that there was a grand design to carry out massive destruction as it happened”.


The police on Monday said seven people lost their lives in the fracas while 15 others were injured.

those people shouting chengi chengi, una see wetin una cause

God take charge!

wrong country, Failed shithole country.
....the usual suspects has taken to the street to kill innocent people and as we all know,it will soon be swept under the carpet. The street of northern Nigeria is watered by the blood of the innocent and its crying out for justice. In my own part of the country,those who kill people are known as miscreants,criminals and are made to face justice when caught but in the north miscreants(Almajiris) are usually above the law because there evil acts are often backed by either religious or political leaders. This is the story of Nigeria.
RIP to the innocent!

wow

Are you an ambulance?

Fish more of those an*mals out pleaseeeeeee

Too late to respond

good

And short man devil governor is busy cutting Tinubu to size than focus on solving crisis in his state. Cutting Tinubu will obviously increase his chances of getting to Aso Rock. Political ambition is more important to them.

"The commissioner said the police were aware of “skirmishes” in the area two weeks ago and had made some arrests “but we did not know that there was a grand design to carry out massive destruction as it happened”.....Incompetence at its peak!

This govt is a curse to Nigerian, BTW Muslims are terror

Since Christians are the ones that score more they will surely arrest.

congrats to the Muslims that died,sex galore awaits them in heaven..

They call it Kaduna. We call it home.I love Kaduna.

it might get worse before the storm calms...more deaths my happen

it won't be a surprise if the 18people that were arrested are Christians... we all know what El-Rufai(The reincarnation of Buhari) is capable of doing..

Great KD...only guys that hv lived in Kaduna knows how interesting the town can be

bobokeshington:
wow

You and wow are 5 and 6

Good riddance to bad rubbish

Southern Kaduna should not dull. You guys need to show that no Muslim have the monopoly of violence. Give them same dose or much more. Cut them to size. Don't shut you door as a defense, take the fight to their own house.The Benue should seize this opportunity to fight alongside the southern Kaduna. Don't just sit in your farms waiting for your yams to germinate. It won't! The Fulani won't give them that chance to be uprooted.






Let the Zoo burn!

Since Christians are the ones that score more they will surely arrest.
