According to reports reaching me, the brutal attack by suspected bandits claimed the lives of six innocent people, while eight others sustained injuries and are currently receiving medical treatment.”
He continued emphasizing the need for solidarity and resilience in the face of such heinous acts, stating, “It is unacceptable that our people cannot live in peace without fear of being attacked by these criminal elements. We must continue to promote peaceful coexistence among our diverse communities, irrespective of our differences.”
Amos reassured the residents of Sanga LGA of his commitment to their safety and well-being, promising to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to ensure security measures are bolstered in the region.
