The apex northern sociocultural group, Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has described the recurring attacks, abduction and killings of innocent people on the Abuja-Kaduna highway as a national shame.
The ACF, through its national publicity Secretary, Mr. Emmanuel Yawe, expressed worry that on a daily basis, Nigerians are being terrorised, kidnapped and killed without let on this road.
One of the latest victim of this act of terror is Hamida Sagir, a retired director of protocol at the Federal Capital Development Authority and a governorship aspirant in Zamfara State who was shot and killed at Rijana, a village along the Abuja-Kaduna highway.
Yesterday, a joint team of security operatives led by the Kaduna state Commissioner of Police, Mudashiru Abdullahi visited the scene to assess the situation on the highway.
According to Mudasiru, 11 travelers were rescued.
