Residents of about 10 communities in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State have reportedly been sacked by terrorists who have sustained incessant attacks and kidnapping in the communities.
It was gathered that most of the residents of the communities have relocated to safer communities within the local government area while others have moved to Zaria Local Government Area of the state.
The leaders in the affected communities identified as Malam Jafaru Anguwar Salahu, said that the residents of the affected communities, mostly farmers, are now living in their new environment as internally displaced persons (IDPs).
Salahu listed the displaced communities to include Sabon Gida, Anaba, Anguwar Salahu, Guberawa, Garu, Rafin Iwa, Gidanduki, Anguwan Najaja, Kunza, and Anguwan Magaji.
He was quoted as saying that “All these villages I mentioned used to have people, but now we were all displaced from our houses and farms. As we speak, we are now living as refugees in Gwada ward and other villages.
“We are only living, but we don’t know what to do.”
Salahu therefore called on the state government to come to their aid by getting rid of terrorists from the communities to enable the residents return to their homes and continue farming and normal life.
