APC condemns dastardly attack, killing of 10 persons in Plateau community

The Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Plateau State, Hon. Rufus Bature has condemned in strong terms the renewed cycle of attack on the unsuspecting people of Ta’agbe in Miango District of Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau state.

Bature in a press statement signed and issued on Saturday by the State Publicity Secretary of the Party, Hon. Sylvanus Namang said the party was deeply saddened by the latest orgy of violence visited on the people which led to the loss of several lives with many others maimed and unquantified property destroyed in its wake.

“It is disheartening that this dastardly act came at a time when the Plateau State government has been working round the clock to ensure the restoration of permanent peace in the troubled community and the state at large.

“These courier of death and agents of destruction who attack the people at will must be trailed, apprehended and brought to face the full wrath of the law.

“This latest attack should seen by the security agencies as a serious wake up call, especially the Third Armoured Division of the Nigerian Army where these incessant attacks are embarrassingly perpetrated at its backyard.

“The APC in Plateau state calls for greater synergy between and amongst the various security outfits in the state who have been adequately supported and equipped by the state government to protect the lives and property of the people of the state”.

The Party also called on the entire good and peace- loving people of the state to cooperate with the state government in its efforts to stem the tide of attacks by unwanted and wicked elements who sneak in the dark of the night to terrorise the people.

The APC leadership in the state frowned at the blame game of some notable politicians from the state, who instead of cooperating to collectively profer solutions to these sad occurrences, choose to always throw needle blames on the state government.

“While our hearts are with the entire harpless Ta’agbe community, we call for vigilance which is a viable a way of arresting these incessant attacks”.
