The Kaduna State Government has condemned the attacks on the Zangon Kataf Local Government Area of the state which led to the loss of several lives.

Speaking at the palace of the Agwatyp, Balarabe, who conveyed the condolences of the Kaduna State Government to the people of the area, said the state government had since last week been working with the military and other security agencies on the killings.
