Shocking as Terrorists Sends Letter of Another Attack to Plateau Community….details
…notifying them to brace up for attack on friday –Middle Belt Forum.
Report has revealed that a particular Group terrorising local towns in Plateau state, north-central Nigeria, has reportedly written a letter withour remorse of its evil melted on this particular part of Plateau state, informing inhabitants of Pushit village in the state’s Mangu local government area that they will invade the community on Friday, December 29, 2023.
Dr. Stanley Kavwam, Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Middle Belt Forum, who claimed to be from the village, confirmed this during a live interview session on AriseNews TV, monitored by SaharaReporters on Thursday.
According to him, while on his way to Arise News, he received a call from his people in the Pushit community telling him that they had received a letter from an anonymous source revealing that a group of terrorists would invade their community on Friday.
He said, “While I was driving down from Jos to this place, I received the call. A letter was sent to my own village that the terrorists, attackers are going to invade on the 29th. This December.”
He went on to say that this was not the first time that terrorists gave notice before invading a community in the state. According to him, despite such notices, Nigerian security personnel still failed to put adequate security measures in place to protect people’s lives and property.
He continued, “For instance, the military relocated an entire community of over 11,000 people, leaving the entire Damboa Road free for the terrorists to operate freely. They even collect tolls on the road as if we were in the Banana Republic.”
He continued: “All the attacks were orchestrated. There was a letter to that effect that was dropped by an anonymous person intimating the residents of Mangu Local government to be precise that they would be attacked.”
He added that about 37 distress calls were received by the security personnel before the terrorist attack on Bokkos and Barkin Ladi areas of the state where they killed over 100 people during the Christmas season.
He added, “They received about 37 distress calls, that is Operation Safe Haven or the joint task force. About 37 distress calls, yet nothing was done.
“And we already know the security forces know the attackers. They even know their hideout; for the past two decades, they know where they orchestrate all of these attacks because that autonomous community called Mahanga” which is at the foot of the hills bordering Wamba in the Nasarawa state, to the south is where “these attacks are just orchestrated just the same one we have in the Mandarin Hills in Borno State”.
He continued, “For instance, the military relocated an entire community of over 11,000 people, leaving the entire Damboa Road free for the terrorists to operate freely. They even collect tolls on the road as if we were in the Banana Republic.”
He reminded the government that the Nigerian Constitution stipulates that the welfare and security of the people shall be the primary purpose of government, “without which the government loses its legitimacy,” he added.
Stanley also berated the Nigerian Army and other security forces for allegedly colluding with terrorists, saying it had enabled the killing of Nigerians.
He said, “And yes, still nothing, nothing is done to protect the people. And these attacks could last for long, 12 hours to 24 hours and there is no security presence whatsoever all the time. Pushit community in Mangu local government area of Plateau State, a letter was signed today that they’re going to attack on the 29th.”
He revealed further that despite President Bola Tinubu’s directive to strengthen security in the state, terrorists continue to operate with impunity.
“The attacks are still going on. There is no response from the security authorities and I want you to know something. Gen T. Y. Danjuma alleged that the military colludes with these insurgents or terrorists to unleash terror on unsuspecting innocent citizens; the entire Nigerian space was caught up with a lot of accusations, name-calling and all of that. Are we not seeing that happening today?” he added,
