The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, has condemned the recent attack in Angwan Rukuba, Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State.
The attack claimed the lives of innocent citizens.
The IGP ordered the massive deployment of security assets to restore calm and ensure the arrest of those responsible.
The IGP commiserated with the Executive Governor of Plateau State and the people of the state, particularly the affected families and residents of the Angwan Rukuba community, over the unfortunate incident.
In response to the situation, IGP Disu had earlier deployed the Deputy Inspector-General of Police in charge of Operations, DIG Umar Shehu Nadada, to Plateau State to assess the security situation, coordinate ongoing operations, and strengthen the existing security architecture.
The Inspector-General of Police has now intensified operations through the deployment of additional tactical teams, Police Mobile Force units, and intelligence operatives, in conjunction with other security agencies, to tackle the ongoing security challenges and forestall any further breakdown of law and order across the state.
The Inspector-General of Police stated that these actions will continue until normal conditions return.
He has instructed all operational commanders to ensure visible policing and actively engage with vulnerable communities.
IGP Disu called on members of the public to remain calm and vigilant, cooperate with security agencies, and refrain from taking the law into their own hands.
He further urged citizens to promptly report any incidents or suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities to support ongoing operations.
