‘Enough Is Enough,’ NSA Visits Plateau, Promises End To Killings

The Federal Government is determined to find a lasting solution to Plateau State’s ongoing attacks and killings, according to National Security Advisor (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu.

Ribadu made a promise to put an end to the killings while speaking at the state’s Bokkos Local Government Area LGA headquarters in Jos during an operational visit.

In attacks on five communities that left over three hundred houses burned by suspected herdsmen in a week, over fifty people were killed.

The Plateau State Government also made an official visit to some of the affected communities in the form of Samuel Jatau, the governor’s secretary, to find out the extent of the damage and provide relief supplies to the victims.

Adu emphasized the urgency of the Federal Government to stop the ongoing homicides and attacks.

The District Head of Manguna also wants the government to hire more security personnel in the affected areas to stop rural-urban migration in response to the killings.
