After more than three months break, Kaduna State Governor, Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai on Tuesday , ordered his bulldozers to resume knocking down houses built on government acquired land.
El-Rufai had vowed to recover all plots of land owned by the state government.
The KASUPDA team which stormed the Dan Bushiya area of the New Millennium city to demolish the houses were seen accompanied by Seven Hilux vans of Operation Yaki filled with security personnel, heavily armed.
Residents who were around while the demolition was going on, watched helplessly.
One of them, Adamu Mohammed ,a Dan Busgiya resident , who spoke to journalists, said they were not aware that the demolition team was coming today , but they were aware a notice was given to owners of the affected houses.
El-Rufai commenced the demolition sometimes last year and took a break after a court order restraining him from continuing with the exercise.
