Senator Shehu Sani, the senator representing Kaduna Central has
disclosed that one of his personal aides, was recently attacked by
herdsmen along Abuja-Kaduna Expressway.
The Chairman of the Ad-Hoc Committee on Mounting Humanitarian Crisis in
the North, however, did not provide further details into the alleged
incident.
Sani made the disclosure at yesterday's plenary while contributing to a
motion on the need for the reconstruction and dualisation of the
Markurdi-9th Mile Trunk “A” Federal Highway, sponsored by Senator
Chukwuka Utazi (Enugu North).
“With all the security on that road, my own personal aide was attacked
by herdsmen on that road," he said, and lamented that issues such as
bad roads only receive attention when the elite are affected.
Sani added that the federal roads that link different states to each
other, should be prioritised for upgrade and rehabilitation, by the
federal government.
