Kaduna Councilors Forum Disowns Gunrunning Colleague, Said His Arrest Is Answered Prayers

 

The Kaduna State Councilors Forum has condemned their colleague nabbed with an AK 47 in Soba Local Government Area, describing his arrest by security operatives as prayers answered.

This was expressed in a statement signed by the Chairman Councilors Forum Kaduna State Chapter, Hon Auwal Sani Mohammed who doubles as Councillor Afaka Ward.

He called on the security operatives to investigate the issue thoroughly and if the accused is found wanting, he should be used as a scape goat for others to learn.

"What he did was not in the interest of councilors and the forum will never support such act.

"As you can recall, the forum met during Eid-el-Fitr celebration, where they prayed that God should end the insecurity bedeviling the nation," the forum said.

The chairman of the forum noted that God has started answering their prayers.

He said the accused did it on his personal capacity as Abdullahi Adamu not as councillor.
