The frightening security beef-up around the area may not be unconnected with the planed demolition of Gbagyi Villa, as tension has trailed the whole area today.

Children have refuse going to school, so also workers and business men in Gbagyi Villa stayed back to observe what will happen, as all property owners in the community have vowed to defend their property with their last blood. This happening as the state house of assembly will be deliberating on the matter of the planned demolition of Gbagyi Villa in the floor of the house this morning.

Recent news about Kaduna state has notably been full of controversy, due to governor El-Rufai’s draconian and “elitist” laws which have made the State very notorious.

The community leaders have pleaded with the youths to remain calm to avert breakdown of law and order.
