Troops have been ordered to go hard on those disturbing the peace of the Plateau and neutralize any terrorists annihilating people and burning or destroying property and other economic valuables in the state.
The order came from the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, who equally ordered the troops to adopt a more aggressive posture and stamp out terrorists wreaking havoc in Plateau State and other states.
Specifically speaking during an operational tour to the Plateau, following a fresh wave of violence in the Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State that left over 30 persons killed, Lagbaja tasked the troops to “Go hard on those disturbing the peace of the Plateau and neutralize any terrorist annihilating people and burning or destroying property and other economic valuables.”
While expressing confidence in the troops, the Army Chief tasked them to “leave no stone unturned in ensuring that peace is restored in the Plateau and other parts of the country.
“Our operations and activities must comply with the rules of engagement and devoid of sentiments.”
It would be recalled that there have been recurring attacks in Mangu LGA of the state, leading to loss of lives and property.
