Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, has met with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, where discussions focused on security, infrastructure, and key development priorities critical to the state’s stability and growth.
During the meeting, the governor briefed the President on the safe rescue of worshippers abducted from churches in Kurmin Wali, Kajuru Local Government Area, in January 2026. He explained that the victims were freed through coordinated, intelligence-led operations involving state and federal security agencies, underscoring the effectiveness of joint security efforts.
