Fight Against Banditry: Kaduna State Begins Training 1,000 Forest Guards

FIC Report (Kaduna State) – The Kaduna State Government Building on improved security in Kaduna State under the leadership of Governor Uba Sani, the state has commenced a rigorous six-week training program for 1,000 newly recruited forest guards at the Police College, Kaduna.

Coordinated by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA), this critical initiative aims to aggressively strengthen surveillance in dense forests and rural communities that criminal groups frequently target.

The guards will work alongside conventional security agencies and will be well-armed, operating strictly under ONSA rules of engagement.

Once trained, these officers will be dispatched to key flashpoints across eight local government areas, including Birnin Gwari, Giwa, Kachia, Kagarko, Kajuru, Chikun, and Igabi.
