Management Committee Chairman Decries Attacks, Killings In Jos-North

The Management Committee Chairman of Jos-North Local Government Area, Shehu Bala Usman, on Wednesday warned that “enough is enough” on the killing of innocent citizens in Jos-North Local Government Area of Plateau State.

Usman issued the warning on the heels of Tuesday night’s attack in Yelwa Zangam in Jos- North.

He described the killing as barbaric, inhuman and unac­ceptable and regretted that the attack happened when normal­cy was returning across the lo­cal council area.

He emphasized that his administration would not go back on its commitment to ap­prehend any person or group of persons suspected to be connect­ed to the attacks.

Usman cautioned the inhabi­tants of the area not to take laws into their hands as the govern­ment and security agencies are doing everything possible to bring the perpetrators to justice.

He appealed to the residents to be calm and law-abiding, se­curity-conscious and to help the various security agencies with information that could lead to the arrest of the attackers.

He called on religious and community leaders to engage their youths and relevant stake­holders in their separate com­munities to avert any escalation of the attack to other areas.
