Plateau killing: Kebbi Govt to immortalize two indigenes

The Kebbi State Government, Atiku Bagudu says he will immortalize two
of its indigenes, Zayyanu Gwandu and Zayyanu Shalla, who were victims
of the recent Jos crisis and were killed while on their way from
Bauchi to Abuja.

The state governor, said this when members of the State Executives
Council, SEC, paid him a visit over the recent dismissal of the court
case challenging his election.

He said that the government would set up a peace foundation in their
honour to promote peace and unity in the state.

Bagudu emphasised his commitment to increase awareness on security by
joining hands with communities to ensure the maintenance of peace and
order in the state.

He described the two victims as very productive young men, who died
leaving behind three children each over an incident they knew nothing
about.

He said that, "It is painful to see them go in such a gruesome and
untimely manner," adding that the peace foundation would help to
sensitise people against such unholy action.

"These people were coming from Bauchi State to Abuja after they had
attended a wedding, they were very productive and energetic youths."

"Zayyanu Gwandu was the Special Legislative Assistant of Sen. Adamu
Aliero while Zayyanu Shalla was a staff of the National Communications
Commission," Bagudu said.
