Three Persons Killed In Plateau Fresh Attack Hours Before IGP Disu’s Visit

At least three people have been killed in a late-night attack near the Barkin Ladi-Bokkos border in Plateau State, hours before Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Rilwan Disu, is scheduled to visit the state over persistent security threats. The latest attack, according to conflict reporter Masara Kim, occurred on Tuesday night near the border communities between Barkin Ladi and Bokkos Local Government Areas. The killings come as Plateau State continues to grapple with a wave of deadly attacks that have reportedly claimed at least 20 lives in different communities across the state within the past week. The latest incident is expected to further heighten security concerns ahead of Disu’s arrival in Jos, the state capital, on Wednesday, September 16.
