Southern Kaduna youths vow to defend communities against attacks

The Atyap youths in Zangon Kataf have vowed to defend their communities against the attack and killings of their kinsmen by Fulani militias. Besides, the youths, under the umbrella of Atyap Community Development Association (ACDA) yesterday, blamed the military for not carrying out the orders of President Muhammadu Buhari against the Fulani militias who used sophisticated weapons in destroying lives and properties in their communities. The President of ACDA, Samuel Achie, who addressed a press conference at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Council Secretariat in Kaduna, said the “attacks by the Fulanis militia has been ongoing across the Atyap dominated districts in the Chiefdom, as if it was a deliberate act.”

Nigeria TV, radio cautioned on reporting terror attacks

Nigeria’s state-run broadcast watchdog on Friday ordered TV and radio to stop airing details of terrorist attacks in a measure media groups feared would be used to muzzle the press. The decision came a few weeks after the government banned the use of Twitter following the social media platform’s removal of an alleged offensive message by President Muhammadu Buhari. Security forces are battling a Islamist insurgency in the northeast, a surge in mass kidnappings by criminal gangs in central and northwestern states and separatist tension in parts of the south. The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) in a statement ordered television and radio stations operating in the country to desist from revealing “details” of the activities of bandits, terrorists and kidnappers in their reports.
