Moshood said that the team, which had started arriving, were already working with the police command in the state to restore peace and sustain normalcy in the affected areas.

“The police special intervention force will ensure full enforcement of the curfew imposed on the affected areas by the Plateau Government.”

The same one he deployed to Benue, make una they deceive unaself

Make no mistake they are going there to disarm Berom people and preventing them from being able to mobilise for any reprisal

Too little too late. Whatever happened to pre-emptive thinking and action?

Cant they start with arresting the culprits whom have taken responsibility?

Can this irresponsible IGP please explain the rationale behind deploying about 5000 policemen + surveillance helicopters for the recent APC national convention in Abuja a city already under police protection(excluding the ones attached to the VIPs)?

Good one.

And can we move from being reactive to being proactive please?
For the sake of Nigeria and her ciitizens!!

Thank you.

Wondering what this man is still doing in service..

A welcomed response but precious minutes already wasted.

zombies will tell themselves anytin.



idiot Apc police man

To continue transmission apprehension

Abokki and their pretences.


Deployment of "Special Forces" after the damage has been done.

Medicine after Death.


No one is fooled by this shenanigans!!!

Let them continue deceiving themselves

Medicine after death mtcew

Nobody should talk about this cow when talking about security

Na so, this is Nigeria!

What will has he been doing all these while? Please don't transmit your mission into this transmitted killings. Non sense

These fools have taken us for granted for too long. How has Benue faired after same or even much more were deployed and our able transmission man failed to relocate for fear of his life to Benue as was instructed by the dullard.

We are wiser.

So why then are you expecting the government to do anything since whatever they do is seen to you in this manner?

IPoB juwus are the greatest liars you will ever know, Jos violence peaked during the regime of OBJ which made him declare state of emergency. The killings are unacceptable, but stop pretending you care for the murdered they simply are political gains to you.

What I don't understand is, deployment never take place before the evil has been perpetrated by those terrorists - fulani herdsmen. Imagine the number of lives that has been wasted of which most will be Christian locals. All of a sudden, IG is deploying Force to the scene. Will that bring the dead?

The government is sponsoring this inhumane activities of Fulani herdsmen, and unless we rise up and start to agitate against it, nothing will be done, and the killing continues.

But MACBAN has claimed responsibility of course. They said it was as a result of cattle rustling... ...That it was retaliatory.

They are going their to protect the herdsmen.
