Atiku, writing on his Twitter page, called for the arrest and prosecution of “criminal elements” causing trouble in communities.
“The crisis in Kaduna is condemnable. But prompt arrest and diligent prosecution of criminal elements fomenting trouble in our communities will give confidence to Nigerians and discourage those who may want to thread the path of criminality,” he tweeted.
