Arewa urges FG to re-introduce policy

The Arewa Defenders Forum (ADF) has urged the Federal Government to immediately re-introduce the suspended Rural Grazing Area (RUGA) programme as a critical measure to address insecurity. Besides, the group also cautioned the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Chief John Nnia Nwodo; Fani Kayode and a former Senator, Shehu Sani, over their statements on RUGA.

President of the group, Nurudeen Alkasim, in a statement after an emergency meeting in Kaduna yesterday, said that the suspended programme was designed to bring an end to the reign of killers.
