Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Nigeria===Kwara State visited the community, commiserated with the victims and the Emir of Kaiama, Muazu Sheu Omar, and directed the Nigeria===State Emergency Management Agency to mobilize support. President Bola Tinubu approved the immediate deployment of a battalion of soldiers under 'Operation Savannah Shield' to the area to enhance security and address the challenge, which extends to Kainji National Park in Niger State.
