President Mohammadu Buhari will today meet with religious and traditional leaders as well as other stakeholders in Kaduna in a bid to find lasting peace in the state.

Thelagostimes recalls that the state has witnessed renewed crisis as a result of the gruesome murder of the paramount ruler of the Adara, the Agom Adara, Dr Maiwada Galadima, by kidnappers.

The arrival of the President is currently being awaited at the popular Murtala Square, venue of the meeting located in the city center. Already, religious and traditional leaders have arrived the venue even as security has been heavily beefed up with both plain and uniform operatives.

The traditional ruler was said to had been shot “immediately the ransom was delivered to the kidnappers” at a point that they chose.
