By Akudiang Comfort, Jos
Senator representing Plateau South Senatorial District Simon Lalong has condemned the recent attacks in villages of Hurti, Ruwi and others in Bokkos Local Government leading to deaths of innocent citizens.
Lalong called the attacks barbaric, unesquesable and condemnable saying the unfortunate situation must be brought to an end.
This was contained in a statement by Dr. Makut Simon Macham, Special Adviser on Media to Senator Lalong.
While sympathising with the families of the victims and the entire people of Bokkos Local Government, Lalong said the continous onslaught against the innocent citizens cannot be allowed to go unpunished.
He appreciated President Bola Tinubu for giving stern directives to security agencies to fish out the perpetrators, urging them to leave no stone unturned in ensuring that the merchants of death are held to account.
Senator Lalong also acknowledged the directives by the President to Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda to deliver relief materials to the victims and ensure that they get succour.
The Senator said he is working with his colleagues at the National Assembly to ensure that the such attacks never occur again.
He asked the state Government to deploy all its might in tackling the condemnable action of wicked persons determined to jeopardise the peace and security of Bokkos and Plateau State at large.
