SECURITY ALERT: IMPENDING ATTACK BY FULANI MILITIAS

INTRODUCTION

This alert serves to inform all relevant authorities and stakeholders of credible intelligence received regarding a planned attack by a militia group of Fulani extraction, led by their leader in the Qua’an-pan county of Plateau State. The target of this imminent attack is the residents of Manja Community in the Bokkos county and surrounding areas in Plateau state.

IMPORTANT REVELATIONS

Intelligence sources indicate that this planned assault is in retaliation for alleged cattle rustling incidents which the Fulanis believe were perpetrated by the residents of Manja. The targeting areas include:

  • Manja Community, Bokkos county
  • Kerang, Mangu county
  • Gobshak, Mangu county

The primary objectives of the attackers are to inflict harm, destroy property, and incite chaos within these communities.

ASSESSMENT

The timing of the attack is imminent, although a specific date has not been disclosed. Further investigations reveal that the militia group is seeking support from their counterparts in Rukubi, Doma, and Wamba LGA of Nasarawa State to enhance their capacity for the planned assault. A traditional gesture of commitment to this plan has been noted, wherein Kola nuts have been distributed among the group, indicating a strong intention to proceed with the attack. The primary targets appear to be Christian-dominated communities, including Gobshar and Kerang, along with other neighboring areas.

PREDICTION

In light of the serious concerns raised regarding these plans, it is imperative that the police high command collaborates with other security agencies to thwart the militants’ objectives and prevent the execution of this attack.

RECOMMENDATIONS

  1. The Commissioner of Police should urgently direct Dopts to warn ACPOLS Pankshin/Langtang, tasking them to engage stakeholders in immediate preventive measures against this impending threat.
  2. Given the attack’s intent to disrupt peace and stability in the region, the protection of lives and property must be prioritized by the police and allied agencies.
  3. An early warning system should be activated to monitor developments closely, ensuring ongoing intelligence gathering.

This alert is issued for your immediate attention and action to safeguard the communities at risk. Please remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities promptly.
