The leadership of the umbrella body of the native tribe in the Mangu local government area of Plateau State, the Mwaghavul Development Association, MDA has enjoined the natives to refrain from any kind of protest and allow the security agencies to do a holistic investigation to unravel the circumstances behind the alleged killing of a Fulani leader in the Panyam District of the LGA, Ardo Adamu Gabdo.
For fairness and justice, the body also urged the security agencies to dig further into the sporadic killings which are still on going in the area, especially the killing of three persons, Panshak Peter, Ishaku Zumuk and Yakubu Sokyes, in the Panyam and Pushit districts of Mangu.
“As peace-loving people, we are not happy about any life lost, having gained a significant milestone in the peace building efforts. We want to commend security agencies in the state especially the Operation Save Haven, the Police and allied agencies – DSS, Civil Defence, Operation Rainbow, over their proactive steps in preventing the crisis from escalating.
