Governor Uba Sani has said that his administration will be fair and just to everyone, be they farmers, herders and traders, in order to achieve lasting peace and development in Kaduna State.
The Governor gave the commitment in Birnin Gwari, when he received the first set of repentant bandits and opened the cattle market which had been closed for about 10 years due to insecurity.
He disclosed that Kaduna State Government, in collaboration with some federal agencies, established The Peace Dialogue Group, which has been engaging stakeholders tirelessly.
According to him, these individuals are being enrolled in a rehabilitation programme designed by Kaduna State Government in partnership with the Federal Government.
The Governor warned that the rehabilitation of repented bandits is based on the principle of carrot and stick approach.
According to the Governor, his government is developing what he referred to as the ‘Kaduna Model,’ which is a comprehensive framework for sustainable peace and security.
