Tinubu Orders Security Forces to Hunt Down Kaduna Attackers and Free Abductees After Brutal Village Raid

President Bola Tinubu has issued a stern marching order to the nation’s security architecture following a devastating attack on Naridon Village in Kaduna State that left approximately 30 residents dead and several others abducted.

The violent assault, which occurred during the early hours in Kamaru Ward of Kauru Local Government Area, saw armed men descend on the quiet community, burning down multiple homes and leaving a trail of grief among defenseless families, including women and children.

Reacting with urgency to the tragedy, President Tinubu condemned the onslaught as a barbaric and cowardly act of terror. In a statement released through his office, the president made it clear that the federal government will spare no effort in bringing the perpetrators to book.

“I have directed the Armed Forces, police, and relevant intelligence agencies to intensify operations across the affected areas to track down the perpetrators swiftly, secure the release of abducted individuals, and restore normalcy to the region,” President Tinubu declared. “Anyone seeking to undermine the hard-earned peace and security enjoyed in Kaduna State will not escape justice.”

Reassuring residents of the federal government’s unyielding commitment to safety, the president emphasized that ongoing security reforms and asset deployments are designed to neutralize criminal networks attempting to terrorize rural communities. He also called on local residents to break the silence by working closely with security operatives.

“I urge our local communities to cooperate with security forces by providing actionable intelligence that would help early response efforts,” the president added.

As security forces pivot toward aggressive rescue and manhunt operations, President Tinubu extended his deepest condolences to the families of the victims and the Kaduna State Government under Governor Uba Sani, promising that the state will receive full federal backing until the missing residents are safely reunited with their loved ones.
