PRESS RELEASE. 11/01/2020.
The members of Southern Plateau Youth Congress (S-PYCO) wishes to express their shocked and total dismay over the heart ugly news of an unprecedented and unprovoked attack on innocent souls in Kulben village of Kombun District, Mangu LGA some days back.
This sad event occurred when Plateau state is on the verge of fastly restoring it’s peaceful nature as the slogan implies “Home of Peace and Tourism.”
We want to make our position known that this nonsense must stop because 99.99% of the people of Plateau State want to live in peace. The 99.99% of us across all religious and tribal divides have found ourselves in the middle of the crossfire coming from the 0.01% of the troublemakers from among us. We urge all to speak with one voice and condemn the gruesome murder of 13 of our brothers in the locality.
We therefore, render our heartfelt sympathy and condolences to the bereaved families, Mwagavul nation and the entire state as a whole and pray that God almighty will rest their souls and that of the faithful departed in peace. May the curse of God be on whoever is against peace on the Plateau.
In as much as we condemned the destardly and inhuman act by the hudlums, let’s demystify the sound of the drums of war by beating our drums of peace we stands for even louder to the dismay of haters of peaceful coexistence.
We also urged the government and all security outfit in the state not only to arrest and prosecute the papetrators of this dirty act but be proactive in dealing with such ugly occurrences in the future.
Long Live Plateau State
(JESUS OUR SAVIOUR.).
