Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, has ordered a full investigation into the shooting in Sabon Gero community in Chikun Local Council by the men of the Kaduna Vigilance Service (KADVS).

It was said that KADVS was allegedly trying to push back residents attempting to stop the Kaduna State Urban Planning and Development Authority (KASUPDA) from carrying out demolition in the community.

In a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Muhammed Lawal Shehu in Kaduna, yesterday, “the governor expressed deep concern over the incident and directed relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to determine the facts of the matter and ensure that justice is served.”

Besides, the governor reiterated his commitment to ensuring the safety and security of all citizens, adding that: “The development negates the safety and security agenda of his administration.”
