Jos — Bokkos stakeholders have reported that armed men have once again invaded various communities in the Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State, killing at least ten people. Farmasum Fuddang, the Chairman of the Bokkos Cultural Development Council, or BCDC, told Vanguard that the attacks occurred on Wednesday night and began in Mongor and proceeded to Daffo, Manguna, Hurti, and Tadai communities, despite the fact that the state Police Command and Operation Safe Haven had not yet responded to the situation. Recall that six days ago, during a wake-keep ceremony in the Ruwi community, ten people were shot dead and three others were injured in a similar occurrence.
Regarding the most recent event, Fuddang stated: "On Wednesday, there were attacks that affected five villages." It began in Mongor, but security personnel chased the attackers away. After that, they relocated to Daffo and launched an attack on the neighbourhood, but security quickly came in and chased them away. They attacked the villages of Manguna, Hurti, and Tadai after Daffo. We have lost more than 20 community members in a single week as a result of these roving terrorists. They killed more than ten people on April 2 alone. We are grateful to the Nigerian police and military for responding quickly to distress calls, which reduced the number of victims. We offer our sincere condolences to the
victims in Ruwi, Hurti, Daffo, Manguna, Mangor, and Tadai of the recent invasions. We urge emergency organisations like the Nigerian Red Cross, SEMA, and NEMA to act quickly to aid the injured and displaced.
