 "YOUR PAIN IS MY PAIN"—GOV. MUTFWANG VOWS JUSTICE, OVER JOS KILLINGS, ORDERS FULL MEDICAL SUPPORT FOR VICTIMS 

Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has pledged swift justice following the deadly attack in Angwan Rukuba, Jos North Local Government Area, declaring that perpetrators will be tracked and punished. The governor also announced that the state will cover all medical bills for injured victims, as grief and tension grip the community.


In an emotional message shared after visiting the scene, Mutfwang said he stood with grieving families and felt their loss firsthand.


“Your pain is my pain, and the pain of Plateau State,” he said, assuring residents that justice would not be delayed.


According to the Plateau State Police Command, at least 12 people 10 men and two women were killed in the attack that has once again spotlighted insecurity in the state.


The incident triggered immediate government action, with authorities imposing a 48-hour curfew on affected areas in Jos North. The restriction took effect from midnight on March 29 and is expected to last until April 1, 2026.


In a move aimed at easing the burden on victims, the governor directed that:

All injured persons will receive free medical treatment funded by the state government.


Victims who lost their lives will be given dignified, state-supported burials

The intervention underscores the administration’s effort to respond quickly to humanitarian needs while restoring public confidence.


Mutfwang reiterated his administration’s commitment to justice, describing the killings as “heinous” and unacceptable.

“I assure you that those responsible for this evil act will not go unpunished. We will pursue justice relentlessly,” he stated.


The governor stressed that security remains a shared responsibility, urging traditional rulers, religious leaders, and residents to work closely with authorities.

He called for unity, warning that division only deepens the crisis.


The latest attack comes amid a troubling pattern of violence in Plateau State. Just weeks earlier, at least 20 security personnel and vigilantes were reportedly killed in an ambush in Kanam Local Government Area.

The back-to-back incidents have heightened concerns over safety and the effectiveness of current security measures.


With lives lost, a curfew in place, and fresh promises from government, attention now turns to whether authorities can deliver justice and prevent another tragedy in Plateau.
