Presidency Kicks, Akeredolu Warns As Military Arrests 12 After Gunmen Kill 22 Commuters In Jos

The Special Task Force, Operation Safe Haven (OPSH) in Plateau State yesterday arrested 12 suspects over the killings at Rukuba Road, Jos North local

Takwa said the commander of the task force, Maj.-Gen. Ibrahim Ali, urged members of the public to volunteer credible information that would lead to the arrest of other suspects currently at large.

While calling for calm among the people of the state, Akeredolu said nobody should take the law into their hands and urged the people to refrain from any hasty colouration of the incident.Presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, said it was widely known that Plateau State had been one of the states affected by herder-farmer clashes, which have, in a significant way, been curtailed following the intense peace-building efforts of the administration of Governor Simon Lalong.

“The Presidency stands steadfast with both Christians and Muslims at this time in condemnation of this latest attack and expects and insists that justice is swiftly – but fairly – delivered to the perpetrators. At the time of filing this report, soldiers drafted from the Special Task Force had restored order and stepped up patrol, amid palpable fears and tension.
