A CALL FOR PEACE As the secretary of SANGA PEACE COMMITTEE, I want to, on behalf of the Sanga Early Warning Early Response (EWER) committee & the interfaith Mediation center, call for peace in Sanga Local Government. This call is coming at this time following the incident at Ungwan Dauda yesterday, Monday 16 December between herdsmen & farmers which resulted to the lost of 2 lives (1 live from each party). A resident of that community who spoke to me said, a strife ensued between the herdsmen & farmers who were harvesting rice. The strife then became a kind of fight that led to the casualties & eventual lost of 2 lives in all with other 2 people wounded. Good enough, a soldier man was nearby & quickly intervened. So the army has helped to bring the situation under control. This ugly development is strongly condemned by the peace-loving people of Sanga LGA, both Muslims & Christians in all the 3 Chiefdoms of the LGA. This is a time we are trying to built on the peace that we all desire. Therefore, nothing should be allowed to truncate the process. In another development, there are rumours in some areas that certain people are planning to unleash terror on Sanga LGA during this Christmas season. We wish to call on all residents of Sanga LGA that all those who have substantial evidences to support such rumours should report to their district heads & law enforcement agencies. Let us be our brothers keepers & stop peddling all sorts of unfounded rumours. Let us also be security conscious & report strange & suspicious movements to the appropriate authorities. Wish you all the best of Gods blessings & protection at this season & always. Long live SANGA LGA Long live Kaduna State Long live Fed. Rep. of Nigeria.
