The Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) Plateau State council, said its condemned in totality the resurgence of violence in Bokkos, Mangu and Barkin ladi LGAs in the state.
The condemnation was made Tuesday, by the JNI State secretary, Dr Salim Musa, in Jos.
“It is unfortunate that this cycle of violence is resurfacing after many spirited efforts by all relevant stakeholders including the government,” it said.
The JNI said it extend their condolences to the families of the victims, people of the affected LGA’s, and the state. We pray for the speedy recovery of the injured victims.
“We call on the communities to take the lead in nurturing and sustaining their peace. An enforced peace is no peace at all,” it said.
The JNI said the security agencies seemed to be overwhelmed by the skirmishes in the communities.
“They need the support of everyone to succeed and bring the perpetrators to justice. It is a collective responsibility for all to contribute towards sustainable peace,” it said.
The Islamic group called on the government to immediately swing into action by providing relief materials to all affected communities in order to ameliorate their suffering.
It prayed Allah SWT in his infinite mercy, to bring succor, peace in our communities, and restore the lost of humanity, amongst people.
