*Plateau State - city gate to Jos

By Sam Kayode 
The Chairman of the Northern Governors Forum and Governor of Gombe State,  Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, has described as reprehensible and heinous, the Christmas eve attacks on communities within Bokkos and Barkin-Ladi council Areas of Plateau State.
The Governor, on behalf of his colleagues, expressed deepest condolences with the affected families and communities as well as the government and people of Plateau State.
A statement by his spokesman Ismaila Misilli stated that the governors were really miffed on hearing that the bandits terrorised the people in such a reprehensible manner.
“It is  reprehensible and disheartening to hear of the loss of over 100 lives and the destruction of properties that occurred during these attacks, especially at a time when residents were preparing to celebrate the festive season.
” Such acts of violence are not only cowardly but also run counter to the spirit of unity and coexistence that our region upholds”.
” We must all prioritise peace and harmonious living in our communities. Now, more than ever, we must reaffirm our commitment to peaceful coexistence and solidarity regardless of our differences.
“We must unite in our commitment to peace and security, and stand firm against all forms of violence and division”, inua remarked.
The Forum Chairman commended Governor Caleb Mutfwang for his leadership and responsible handling of the situation in the aftermath of those attacks, assuring him that the Northern Governors stand united in solidarity with him in the face of adversity and will work together towards lasting peace in Plateau State.
He commended the security agencies operating in the area, and implored them to redouble their efforts in safeguarding the lives and property of the people, harping on urgent need for increased vigilance and swift action to ensure the safety of all citizens.
“It is imperative that those responsible for the heinous acts are swiftly apprehended and made to face the full weight of justice.”
The Gombe State Governor urged members of the affected communities to remain vigilant and promptly report any suspicious activities to the security agencies for immediate intervention.
