Suspected bandits have attacked Zurak community in Plateau State’s Wase local government area, killing at least five residents and a soldier.

The incident occurred on Monday around 3:00 pm, with reports indicating that three soldiers are missing after a gun battle with the attackers.

The bandits, who had earlier burnt down houses in Sabon Gari community, also looted shops and carted away food items and valuables.

Shapi’i Sambo, a youth leader in Wase, confirmed the attacks, stating that the body of the slain soldier has been moved to Jos.

“This incident is devastating, and Zurak community is currently deserted as residents have fled to neighboring villages for fear of further attacks,” said Jibrin Isa, a resident of Zak community.

The attack is part of a larger wave of banditry and kidnapping in Wase LGA, with 28 travelers abducted on December 21, 2025.

Community leaders are calling on authorities to intervene and restore law and order.

Neo-black Problem: Must Blacks Be Ruled by Whites in Order to Prosper?

In short, the neo-black dilemma may be framed as follows: is it better to live under white rule without political dignity but with basic life-sustaining standards for many;

or to live under black rule with illusory political dignity and without basic life- sustaining standards for the majority?

The path forward for Africa lies in cultivating higher and adequate levels of personal and communal agential integrity as well as full personal responsibility and productivity. Not to mention creativity (including epistemic creativity), productive justice (such as merit and freedom), harmony and reconciliation at local and international levels, and a proper domestication of capitalism and other related values and institutions.

Africa must stop wasting her time on dreams of socialism because it is a system of wealth distribution primarily. Whereas, capitalism is a system of wealth creation primarily, and wealth has to be produced before it can be distributed.

The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Wednesday said
President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration lacks the wherewithal to tackle the country’s security
challenges.

The former Lagos State governor therefore asked Jonathan to resign as Nigerian president.
The APC chieftain spoke in Ilorin, Kwara State, during the formal declaration of Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed’s
bid for second term in office.
The event was attended by former head of state and APC’s presidential aspirant, Muhammadu Buhari,
former vice Abubakar Atiku and governors of Imo, Rivers, Kano, Sokoto and Edo States.
Also in attendance were – the Speaker of House of Representative, Aminu Tambuwal, Senator Bukola Saraki,
former governors of Kwara and Ekiti States, Alhaji Shaaba Lafiagi and Dr. Kayode Fayemi, APC’s
spokesperson, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, member, Board of Trustees of the party, Alhaji Abubakar Baraje and
Speaker of the Kwara State House of Assembly, Razak Atunwa.
Tinubu said, “I saw the sea of refuges caused by the Boko Haram insurgents and the lies coming from
Jonathan’s administration. They have exhibited failure, lack of capacity, vision and creativity. The lies of
yesterday are what they repeat today and are what they will repeat tomorrow. They are lying to you.
“They are lying about the security, toying about the security of this country. I don’t have time to explain the
logic of their lies.
“But if you control the armed forces and you are the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal
Republic, why should any part of this country be under occupation? And you give us excuses every day. In
any civilized country Jonathan should have resigned. But if he will not resign, he should wait for our broom,
we will sweep him away. I will come back.
“This is just the endorsement of Governor Ahmed, that he will be re-elected by the grace of God with the
support of you people here and those outside there. The unemployment situation will be conquered by this
administration of APC. We have the vision for the security of the lives of our children.
“The thieves that daily steal your money have not given you any job, they cannot create jobs and they are
starving states of funds to pay workers salaries. The best thing to do is to sweep them away through broom
revolution. APC is a party of the masses.
“It now behooves on you to begin a house to house campaign that this is a party of the masses.”
