A father and his two sons have reportedly been killed in Zogu village, Miango District, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State.

The spokesperson of Irigwe Development Association, Sam Jugo, confirmed the incident to journalists in Jos on Saturday.

Jugo gave the names of the victims as Weyi Gebeh, Zhu Weyi, and Henry Weyi.

According to Jugo, the victims were killed while they were asleep.

Describing the incident as barbaric, the community leader said, “The leadership of Irigwe Development Association has been notified of yet another attack on Zogu village, Miango which claimed the lives of a father and two of his sons namely: Weyi Gebeh, 56 years; Zhu Weyi, 25; and Henry Weyi, 16.

“This recent event brings to nine deaths recorded this week alone. IDA expresses its utmost displeasure on the deteriorating situation in Irigwe land and calls on the security agencies to do whatever is required to halt this barbarism on our land and get perpetrators apprehended to face justice.

“The way criminal elements invade our motherland and kill with impunity seems to suggest a more sinister motive than mere reprisals. IDA therefore, calls on the Plateau State government and the security to do the needful and stop the killing of innocent people in Irigwe land.”


Spokespersons of Operation Safe Haven, Maj Samson Zhakom, and the state police command, Alabo Alfred, were yet to respond to confirmation messages from our correspondent.

Governor Bala Mohammed said they have invited Fulani from all over Africa to see Nigeria as their Homeland, they need fertile lands with water to graze their animals and survive and the areas of focus to resettle the invading Fulanis is the North Central middle belt region of Nigeria.

Minority tribes in the above areas should prepare for war because the Fulanis are not going to relent soon, they occupy command positions in the mid-level ranks of our armed forces and Igbos who fight bravely when confronted by Fulani on level playing field seems to have avoided recruitment into the military as complained this week by our Chief of Defence Staff as our military is overstretched after several years of discrimination against Igbos in recruitment and their numbers in the Armed Forces is now quite small.

Benue Plateau indigenes in the military are dying in the fight against Kanuri led Boko Haram in Sambisa where they are posted by their Fulani commanders and are not being sent to defend their own people at home.

Tinubu is more concerned about scuttling the ongoing coalition of Fulani politicians for 2027 than saving minorities from Fulani terrorists seeking to occupy their lands, waiting for him will cost more lives, state governments must find a way to acquire military grade weapons for vigilantes (not pump action cock and shoot which Fulanis don't use and see it as Toys) to defend their communities
