He said the members of the council include the Commissioner of Police, Audu Ali, Director of Department of State Services, Abdul Eneche, Garrison Commander, 1 Division, Nigerian Army, Brig-Gen. Muhammad Kana.
According to Aruwan, in the company of security forces, they dismantled the road blocks erected and subsequently opened up the road for use by motorists.
He said, “The members of the Kaduna state security council while interacting with the community leaders, expressed dissatisfaction with the menace of blocking roads.
”It is a situation which infringes on the rights of the citizens and travelers using these roads and other public utilities.
“As of the time of this security update, citizens and motorists are plying the Gonin Gora axis of Kaduna-Abuja Road without obstruction.” (NAN)
