It added that “While sympathizing with the victims, we are calling on the Kaduna State government and security agencies to take immediate action to secure the safe release of the abducted individuals”.

“This recurring kidnappings in our local government area are a cause for concern, despite the presence of military formations in, Dokan Karji, in Kauru chiefdom,  Damakasuwa, in Tsam and kwassam in Kumana chiefdom, which is very close to where the incidence happened.

“This is uncalled for, and we, urged the authorities concerned to intensify efforts to apprehend the perpetrators of this unfortunate act, and bring them to justice”, CDAs lamented.

The association also appealed to the government to as a matter of urgency find ways of ending “this barbaric act of kidnapping and killing of innocent people, by intensifying more security surveillance, as many communities can not longer sleep with their two eyes closed due to fear of the unknown”.
