Islamic Group reveals why Southern Kaduna crisis continues

Apex Islamic Group, Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) has revealed the reason behind the persistence of  Southern Kaduna crises.

OnyxNews Nigeria understands that the Secretary-General, Dr. Khalid Abubakar Aliyu, JNI said in a statement that, unguarded utterances of some citizens including elder statesmen, whom it believed were making economic fortunes out of the Southern Kaduna crisis, were making peace difficult in the region.

The apex Islamic body in the North also said in the statement that, both the federal and state governments should act fast to ensure that such groups do not destroy situation, but increase the efforts to end the crises.

The statement added: “It is very clear that some interest groups cried wolf than the bereaved in the present circumstance and thus, the need for government to quickly act before such interest groups exacerbate the already precarious situation, that could jeopardize frantic efforts aimed at restoring law and order, through dialogue and commitment for peace, with all relevant stakeholders in the state.”
