” I am in Kwapre to see things under the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari and to symphatise and condole with the community.

” I have seen the level of destructions which is tragic of monumental dimension.

” I am deeply saddened by what I saw and am assuring the community, government will do all what is possible to protect lives and property of the citizens,” he said.

He said that from information available, over 78 houses ,12 shops, schools and four worship centres were destroyed.

He said that securing communities was a collective responsibility adding that members of communities had a great role to play.

” Government is going to take steps that will be quite effective to curtail the menace as much as possible.

” Government is going to help the community to reconstruct places destroyed, “ he said.
