The Senate has urged the Federal Government to intensify efforts aimed at the safe rescue and release of all abducted women and children from Woro communities in Kwara State.
The Senate also called on the federal government to redesign and comprehensively clear the forest reserve of criminal elements and consider the strategic establishment of security formations where necessary.
The Upper Chamber further urged the federal and state governments to provide comprehensive support, resources and well-structured programmes for displaced farmers and residents of the Woro community in neighboring areas.
The call followed renewed concerns over killings and insecurity in Kaima Local Government Area and sequel to a Point of Order raised by Sadiq Umar on the “Killings of Over 100 innocent persons in Wora Communities of Kaima Local Government Area.” According to Umar, this move is to restore the people’s livelihoods, rebuild economic resilience, and enable them to regain sustainable economic stability.
