Southern Kaduna celebrates annual festival after 5 years

Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has reaffirmed his commitment to completing abandoned road projects in Southern Kaduna within a few months.

He made the pledge at the Southern Kaduna Annual Festival held in Kafanchan, Jama’a Local Government Area of the state.

For over five years, annual festivals celebrated by the 66 diverse ethnic groups in Southern Kaduna had been suspended due to insecurity.

However, with the emergence of the current administration at both the state and national levels, relative peace has returned to the area, allowing the people to once again celebrate their annual festivals.

The event brought together diverse ethnic groups from Kaduna and neighbouring states of Nasarawa, Niger, Plateau, and others, who showcased their cultural heritage to promote peace and unity across Nigeria.
