This followed additional security measures, including the deployment of 15,285 policemen, put in place by the Nigeria Police Force in Southern Kaduna.
Sources said the acting president demanded an explanation over the recent resurgence of violence that resulted in the deaths of 21 innocent Nigerians again.
It was learnt that Osinbajo invited the IGP to the Presidential Villa to find out what the police was doing to end the crisis and to issue further directives on restoring law and order.
The outcome of the meeting with the acting president was the decision to intensify security with additional measures that would help contain the situation and stop the killings.
Besides deploying over 15,000 police officers in the area, it was also learnt that the Police High Command had concluded arrangements for the establishment of a new police squadron in Kafanchan, Kaduna, as part of broad measures adopted to curb the violence.
It was further gathered that 18 Armoured Personnel Carriers and a unit of Belarus-trained Police Special Forces had been deployed in Southern Kaduna.
The police, in addition, were said to have increased helicopter surveillance in the entire area to prevent a recurrence of violence in the communities.
No fewer than 38 suspects were said to have been arrested in connection to the violent attacks, while 29 firearms were recovered.
Acting President Osinbajo got a commitment from the IGP that police would double their efforts.
