President Bola Tinubu has condemned the escalating violence and killings in Plateau, charging various sociocultural and religious bodies in the State to take steps to halt the carnage.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Special Duties, Communication and Strategy, Mr Dele Alake, President Tinubu particularly, in strong terms, condemned the most recent internecine killings in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State and parts of Benue State.
Tinubu found very depressing the festering reprisal attacks, needless and avoidable bloodletting among communities in the two States.
“It is most unfortunate that in this orgy of violence, an innocent eight-month-old baby in Farin Lamba community of Vwang District, Jos South Local Government, died in a conflict she knew nothing about.
“A major consequence of perennial conflict is always the tragic loss of innocent lives.
