Gov Mutfwang apologises to Plateau community attacked by bandits

As communities in Bassa Local Government Area (LGA) bury their loved ones k!lled by marauding gunmen, Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State has commiserated with victims’ families

In the Zikke community of the LGA, over 50 people were gunned down in the early hours of Monday, April 14, with houses razed.

Two weeks earlier, scores of people were gruesomely k!lled in the Bokkos Local Government Area of the state.

During his visit to the Zikke community to commiserate with the people, Mutfwang, speaking at the palace of the Paramount Ruler of the Miango community on Tuesday, admitted that the government has failed to protect them.

He begged the people of the state to forgive him, saying he’d been crying since the latest killings happened.

“I will tell you the truth: I have been crying since yesterday because I had trusted God that all the arrangements were put in place, that this will not happen again. We have made investments in security.

“But like all human arrangements, sometimes they fail. I want to admit that on Sunday night into Monday morning, we failed you. Please, forgive me,” Mutfwang begged.

The governor and the entourage also visited some of the families who lost their loved ones in the attack.
