Chairman, Senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Southern Kaduna crisis, Sen. Kabiru Gaya, on Thursday said that the Senate did not reject the committee’s report as reported by some media.

Gaya, while briefing newsmen said, “I submitted a report on Southern Kaduna crisis and other states to the Senate. I was disturbed when some newspapers said the report was rejected.”

 “The committee is a very sensitive and important committee. We have eight more states to go.

 If you say that the reports from Kaduna and Zamfara were rejected, it means that you are going to cast doubt on the remaining eight states.

 “This may be very difficult for us to come up with very good resolutions,” he said.

According to the lawmaker, the committee members were well received by the government and the people of Kaduna.

 He said that “there were trouble makers living in the forest calling on the Kaduna State Government to find a way of evacuating them from the affected areas to enable the residents return to their farms.”
