The Plateau state Government has strongly condemned another unprovoked attack by gunmen on Zike and Kimakpa communities of Kwall district, Miango, Bassa local government council of the state.
The Commissioner of information and Communication, Hon Joyce Ramnap, who spoke to journalists on behalf of the government, said the attack is one too many as the series of attacks pose an existential threat to the lives and livelihoods of the peace-loving people of the state.
“It is sad that in less than two weeks after our people were killed in Bokkos local government, this sad incident is reoccurring in another community in Bassa local government,” the Commissioner said.
She further described the attack as another attempt to puncture the peace that has gradually returned to the state.
Hon. Ramnap maintained that the attacks are provocative, but called on the peaceful people of the state particularly in the attacked community to remain calm and equally vigilant.
The Commissioner emphasised that the Gov. Caleb Mutfwang’s administration is determined to deal decisively with anybody or groups found culpable in attacking innocent persons in the state.
She also advise against reprisals and urged security operatives to go after the perpetrators of this dastardly acts.
