El-Rufai cries to Buhari, says terrorists gradually taking over in Kaduna

The Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai has cried to Presient Muhammadu Buhari, alleging that terrorists are gradually taking over the state.

According to El-Rufai, bandits have formed a parallel government in some parts of Kaduna State.

The governor, who made this known in a memo issued to President Muhammadu Buhari, said members of the Jama’atu Ansarul Musulmina Fi’biladis Sudan, popularly known as Ansaru are hibernating in Kuyello district of Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of the State.

The terrorists, according to reports, moved to Birnin Gwari in 2012 when they broke away from Boko Haram.

He wrote, “According to actionable intelligence, members of the Jama’atu Ansarul Musulmina Fi’biladis Sudan (aka Ansaru) are hibernating in Kuyello district of Birnin Gwari LGA, which recently conducted a nuptial ceremony, during which they married two yet-to-be-identified female residents of Kuyello village.

“The ceremony was attended by various Ansaru members and witnessed by residents of the area. After the marital rites, insurgents in attendance reportedly conveyed the brides to the dreaded Kuduru forest, in the same District.”
