No fewer than seven persons have been confirmed dead and some others injured in what is described as a resurgence of terror attacks in the Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State.
Confirming the incident to Channels Television on Wednesday, the Special Adviser on Security to the Governor Caleb Mutfwang, Brigadier General (retired) Gakji Shipi, stated that the attack occurred after a long while with relative peace recorded in the affected areas.
“We have not had this kind of attack in a while until yesterday, so I would not say it’s been an increase, and there have been many reasons for that,” he said.
“We are looking into it, to be able to profile what the real issue is and then provide solutions, but I think it’s just one of those things where people who are not happy when they see there is peace in the land and where people are happy.
“Unfortunately, yesterday we had two separate attacks, one in Kwata and then Daffo. So far, we have casualty rates of seven dead and some injured.”
