Gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have reportedly abducted and killed a ward head in Kanam local government council of Plateau state .
Our correspondent gathered that Mal. Hudu Hassan Barau, the ward head of Shuwaka (Sarkin Shuwaka) from Kyaram District, Garga Community of Kanam Local Government Area, Plateau State who was abducted about six days ago was later killed by bandits .
A statement signed by the Kanam Development Association and jointly signed by Shehu Kanam the Secretary, as well as Barr. Garba Aliyu,the Chairman of the group alleged that the lifeless body of the body was recovered from the bush in the LGA on Monday morning
The statement reads that “We are consumed by grief and outrage as we received the tragic news of the death of one of our community leaders, We are still grappling with the shock and pain of this senseless killing and the continued bandit attacks across the communities in the GARGA area.”
This heart-wrenching incident is a stark reminder of the persistent insecurity and banditry that has plagued our communities for far too long.
We call on the Federal government,security operatives and the Plateau state Government to work towards tackling insecurity in the council.
