The Deputy Governor of Kaduna state, Dr Hadiza Sabuwa Balarabe, has led Kaduna state government’s delegation to Zangon Kataf Local Government Area (LGA), following the attacks which led to the loss of several lives, and injuries to many others.
The deputy governor conveyed the condolences of the Kaduna state government and condemned the killings in strong terms, when she arrived the palace of the Agwatyap, HRH Dominic Gambo Yahaya.
She further stated that the state government had since last week been working with the military and other security agencies on the unfortunate situation.
