“Those killed were Pastor Dauda Dalyop, 63 years, Mrs Chummy Dauda (his wife), 57 years, Mr. Chwe Ajuhs, 26 years, Mr. Joshua Kusa, 45 years, and Mrs Rikwe Doro, 43 years. Two persons were severely injured and are currently undergoing treatment.
“This sad incident came just two days after some disgruntled elements ambushed some Rigwe youths on a motorcycle while returning from the Gero mining site and killed instantly Mr. Irmiya Timbi and severely injured one other.”
Jugu appealed for calm and stressed, “We should upscale our vigilance, avoid night movements to distant destinations and suppress the urge for reprisal or taking the law in our hands and give the security agencies the benefit of the doubt. As much as we are quite saddened by this condemnable incident, we cannot afford to aggravate the situation by seeking self-help at this time.
“We call on the security agencies to do the needful by fishing out the culprits so that the affected will see justice being served as that’s the only way to restore the confidence of our people.”
The Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) in Plateau State calls for probe as gunmen kill pastor.
