Hundreds of natives of Southern Kaduna have started fleeing their communities to take refuge in other parts of the state, following fears of further attacks and killings by armed herdsmen.
Spokesman of the Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU), Luka Binniyat, who disclosed the new development, lamented the humanitarian crisis and exodus of many indigenes of the troubled areas, saying: “SOKAPU is now faced with serious humanitarian crisis created by the recent attacks and killings in the communities in Zangon Kataf and other villages where the invaders had a field day.
“Many of the natives in Zonkwa and other parts of Southern Kaduna, where the armed herdsmen have attacked and killed our people are now fleeing their homes to other parts of the state and the other neighbouring Jos in Plateau State to find shelters where they be safe.”
Binniyat, who recounted the ugly experiences of the recent attacks on natives in Zangon Kataf, said: “When the armed Fulanis invaded the communities, the armed security men who were deployed there were there, but they couldn’t intervene in the massacre of the people and the invaders had a field day under a 24-hour curfew that has been there. They were going from house to house, killing and maiming our people.
