The Police and other security agencies are deploying both kinetic and non-kinetic approaches to tackle the lingering crisi which look recurrent in the State. The IGP further admonishes warring groups, residents and the entire state to embrace peace, shun violence and unwarranted killings of innocent souls.

The IGP extends heartfelt condolences to the grieving families and loved ones of the deceased, who fell victim to these regrettable and preventable incidents, and to the Government and good people of Plateau State. He assures the public that the perpetrators of these heinous acts will face the full force of the law and shall know no peace until justice is served.
