ABUJA: Transporters in Kaduna State have paid a glowing tribute to the galant Armed forces of Nigeria for dexterity deployed in checkmating activities of bandits and kidnappers along the Kaduna-Abuja expressway.

The transporters gave the commendation during a Peace and Development sensitization led by the Ayudantes Empowerment Initiative (AEI) in the city on Friday.

This development was disclosed via a press statement issued by the Executive Director, AEI, Amechi Chuks Oyema which a copy was obtained by New Era newspaper on Sunday in Abuja.

Oyema said the Peace and Development sensitization took the team to Rigasa, Central Market, Kano Road, Barkin Ruwa bypass and Abuja park, all in Kaduna.

According to the group “The transporters commended the Military under the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Chris Musa for making life unbearable for criminals along the route.

“During the sensitization, the transporters commended troops of the military for interception of terrorists attempting to migrate from Alawa Forest in Niger State to Birnin Gwari in Kaduna State.

“The transporters lamented that the activities of the criminals on the route and other areas in the state have affected their business and economic development.

“They appealed to the military to ensure that they comb the bushes to fish out the kidnappers and their conspirators.

“The transporters welcomed the sensitization campaign, saying it is a step in building support for the troops of the military who are not relenting in returning peace and stability not only to Kaduna but entire North-West.

“The Peace and Development sensitization has so far taken Ayudantes Empowerment Initiative to Lagos, Keffi and Kaduna.”
