The Kaduna state government (KDSG) has debunked rumours on social media that bandits are barricading the Kaduna-Abuja road and kidnapping citizens plying the route.
Commissioner, Internal security and home affairs, Samuel Aruwan disclosed in a statement that the rumours are false, and was presented by a group of social media enthusiasts who celebrate negative news.
He said the preliminary operational feedback showed that fleeing bandits escaping a military onslaught attempted to pass through a narrow corridor around Kasarami general area of Kaduna-Abuja road.
The troops, on receving this intelligence, hurriedly moved to the location and engaged them in the adjoining forest.
KDSG, while not denying the security challenges in the state, said it would update members of the public when more detailed feedback is received.
