The Kaduna State government has come out to say that sexual immorality is partly to blame for the state’s security challenges.

Recall that the Kaduna State Urban Planning and Development Authority (KASUPDA) recently demolished a hotel allegedly for being the proposed venue of a sex party advertised on social media.

Defending its action, the agency revealed that Governor El-Rufai ordered the immediate arrest of the organisers of the party, and the collapse of the building was meant to be a deterrent to others.

The agency added that the advertisement of the sex party showed a very high level of immorality which is against the country’s socio-cultural, religious, and traditional values.

The agency wrote, “This act of immorality is partly the reason why we are bedeviled with security challenges in our dear state.”
