President Bola Tinubu has condemned what he termed “heinous and brutal” attacks in Bokkos and Barkin-Ladi Local Government Areas of Plateau State, which resulted in the tragic loss of many lives.

According to reports, the attacks started on Saturday and got worse on Sunday as locals were getting ready for Christmas.

According to reports, the gunmen destroyed homes and stole belongings from the locals, particularly in Mushu village.

According to a statement issued by Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, the President directed security agencies to immediately move in, scour every stretch of the zone, and apprehend the culprits.

President Tinubu also directed the immediate mobilisation of relief resources for surviving victims of the primitive and cruel attacks as well as medical treatment for the wounded.

While condoling with the government and the people of Plateau State, he assured Nigerians that “these envoys of death, pain, and sorrow will not escape justice.”
