As I sit to ponder the above theme, I couldn't contain the pain ravaging me. At a time when the good people of plateau are beginning to heave a sigh of relief following the wave of peace blowing across the state, Wednesday the 26th of June 2013, saw another release of "hells fury" on the unsuspecting people of Langtang South Local Government Area of the state. It was a bloody attack that left scores of people dead, injured, hopeless and homeless. The attack was said to have been carried out by hoodlums suspected to be Fulani Mercenaries. These same assailants having wreaked unprecedented havoc on the people of Riyom, Barkin Ladi, Jos South and Bokkos LGAs in recent times are now swinging the pendulum of deadly attack to the people of Taroh in Langtang South LGA. According to reports, about 6,000 people have been rendered homeless and are currently taking refuge at the Council Secretariat.

According to the member representing Langtang North and south in the federal House of Representatives Hon. Beni Lar, more than 60 people were killed. Interestingly, the special task force (STF) troops were able to kill about 20 of the attackers but some disappeared in the thin air. The questions increasingly agitating the minds of Plateau people are: who are these assailants? Where do they come from? And why do they plot evil against the good people of Plateau?
