Shortly after the IGP issued a Security Alert on likely terror attacks on Jos and the FCT, the blood merchants have visited terror on DONG community adjacent Wild Life Park, Jos and KWI village, adjacent Yakubu Gowon Airport Heipang on Sunday night, 23/05/21 where 16 persons were butchered to dead, including children.

Senator Gyang of Plateau North whose constituency and constituents have been victims of sustained attacks, loss of lives and displacement from ancestral homes, condemns in strong terms the renewed attacks as being dastardly, wicked and unwarranted.

The Senator notes with concern that available information indicates that some persons at a meeting with the Police the week preceding the attacks vowed to visit mayhem on helpless communities. It is therefore incumbent on the Plateau State Police Commissioner to arrest and prosecute those very persons forthwith.

Senator Gyang further calls for decisive action against all those that are known to security agencies, the OPSH, Police and the DSS for the serial killings, displacemment and forceful occupation of ancestral homelands of communities in Plateau North. He says inaction on this matter will amount to condonation and complicity.

The Senator is sad that the peace which the people of Plateau North have been working hard to rebuild is adversely affected by this dastardly attacks. He urges vigilance and prayers by all well meaning and peace loving citizens.
