Kaduna State Government has imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on the troubled Kajuru Local Government Area.

The government said this in a statement by Governor Nasir El-Rufai’s spokesperson, Samuel Aruwan.

Aruwan said the curfew would be from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily until further notice.

The government directed security agencies to ensure strict enforcement of the curfew.

The government appealed to the residents in the affected areas to bear with it the inconveniences the curfew might have caused and urged them to cooperate with the security agencies on the directive.

Kajuru is in Kajuru Local Government while Kujama and Maraban Rido are in Chikun Local Government area of the state.

Kaduna State Police Command on Monday said no fewer than 16 persons were killed by gunmen at Barde Village under Maro in Kajuru Local Government Area of the state.

Sabo said at about 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, some unknown armed men entered Barde Village under Maro in Kajuru Local Government Area and started shooting sporadically which resulted in the death of 16 persons.

He said on receipt of the information, the command mobilised teams of police operatives led by Kajuru Divisional Police Officer (DPO) alongside military personnel with a view to apprehend the perpetrators and restore normalcy to the area.

He added that the operation was ongoing and the situation had been brought under control.

”While investigation is in progress, the Commissioner of Police, Ahmad Abdurrahman, has vowed to uncover the masterminds of this dastardly act and bring them to justice,” he said.

He appealed for calm and extended his heartfelt condolences to the families of those who were affected by the recent carnage.(NAN)

As far as Muslims and Christians are living in Kaduna, there will never be peace there

El Rufai should just leave, he has lost control of the state!
If it was Obj, he would have declared a state of emergency and remove the joker governor!

Peace that is all we need here in kaduna

Some of you just open your mouth and say gibberish

God will punish Hell-Rule-Fire.
A useless governor went into town claiming that Fulani men had been killed in Kajuru without a single corpse to show but has gone mute since the people of Kajuru have come under the attack of his Fulani brothers. God will punish this religious and ethnic bigot.

Kill yourself!

That is a good effort for the affected areas.

It did not occur to the NPF to provide round d clock protection for the people of that village as a preemption against reprisal attacks since it is d modus operandi of these Fulani militias? Why do we always rely on medicine after death in dis country? Can’t our security forces be proactive for once!?

Thunder fire you there!

Hypocrisy is the caused of all these menace in kaduna!

As long as no arrest is made the suspicion of ethnic cleansing will always be there. In addition the murderers are further emboldened by the Muslim Muslim ticket composition. This sends a direct message to the killers to continue killing because the southern will now be looked at as inconsequential.

I heard EL rufai had an accident, pls is it true? if yes then I pray its a fatal one.

For how long will this last.

Then can Nigerian Government divide that state to reduce the conflict? The new broadly christian state Governor might do something better to protect the people than relying on El Rufai.

I didn't hear Hell-Rufai mention the tribe that was killed this time around or are they tribeless?
But he was quick to mention that "...Fulanis were killed",when it was assumed Fulanis that were affected.
A devil of a governor!

I pray they do this some day.

The short devil call elrufai is on a killing mission

The elections are over, so Elrufai allowed his kinsmen to now go on reprisal attack which he claimed he prevented them from doing in Kajuru

This thread is still on page 1 after several hours, how come Yoruba Muslims are not commenting on it?

No one deserves to be killed because of difference in ideology or belief
