Through the concerted efforts of stakeholders in the One Family under God Campaign, leaders from seven native districts and the only local Fulani district in the Chiefdom have agreed to end hostilities after a prolonged peace process brokered by Global Peace Foundation Nigeria in a meeting held on June 6.
Since December 2016, many of the districts made headlines for what would be remembered as the “Southern Kaduna Killings,” a series of ethno-religious killings and counter-killing between members of Nigeria’s indigenous populations and the predominantly nomadic, Muslim Fulani people.
Faith, women, and youth leaders from the eight districts unanimously agreed to forgive each other and make continuous effort to promote closer collaboration for conflict prevention and sustainable peace.
