The Kaduna State Executive Council has resolved to find a permanent solution to the perennial crises that keep erupting in Zangon Kataf Local Government Area.
A statement issued by the Special Adviser on Media and Communication to Governor Nasir El-Rufai, Mr Muyiwa Adekeye, saidMonday that the state government had set up a committee to draft a White Paper on the two reports of the Justice Rahila Cudjoe Commission of Inquiry into the Zangon Kataf riots of February and May 1992.
The statement further said that the White Paper drafting committee “will also consider the 1995 report of the Zangon Kataf Reconciliation Committee, chaired by Air Vice Marshall Usman Muazu.’’
Adekeye recalled that “violent clashes broke out in Zangon Kataf LGA on 11th June, 2020, between two communities that were reportedly disputing over ownership of farmlands whose place in the conflict is mentioned in the 1992 and 1995 reports.’’
The special adviser said that recommendations in both the Justice Cudjoe Commission of Inquiry and the Air Vice Marshall Mu’azu reports did not receive comprehensive response or attention.
