Killers of Plateau residents will be brought to book – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that those behind the recent killings in Plateau State will be arrested and made to face the full wrath of the law.
The President sent heartfelt condolences to families who lost loved ones in the brutal attacks on Ruwi, Hurti, and Tadai communities in Bokkos Local Government Area, as well as Manguna and Dafo villages. The attacks resulted in multiple deaths and widespread destruction of properties.
President Tinubu sympathized with the Plateau State Government and Governor Caleb Mutfwang, urging the affected communities to support security agencies by providing useful information that could lead to the arrest of the attackers. He pledged his administration’s full backing to Governor Mutfwang in efforts to end the ongoing violence in the region.
He also instructed the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to join hands with the state authorities to offer urgent help to survivors and provide relief materials. According to him, efforts will also be made to assist affected communities in rebuilding and recovery.
In his words: “The report of another violent attack in communities in Plateau State by mindless gunmen saddens me. The latest attacks on defenceless citizens are unacceptable. I have directed security agencies to hunt down the attackers, and they will face severe punishment when apprehended. These intermittent attacks should have no place in our country at a time when we are working so hard to restore peace and order in all parts of our country. This unfortunate incident will never dampen and slow us down in our duty to protect every Nigerian citizen. Instead, we will work harder to exterminate forces of evil wherever they are lurking in our country.”
He added: “Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims’ families and all those affected by this senseless violence. No community should have to endure such tragedy. We all must unite to foster peace and stability. I urge all citizens—regardless of ethnic, religious, or political affiliations—to uphold the shared humanity that binds us all, embrace peace, and reject retaliation.
