A six month old baby, a seventy year old grandmother and
a twelve year old boy as well as a man and his two wives
are among members of the Dakinban family that were
murdered in cold blood early Friday morning in Tibiu village
of Kumbun ward in Mangu local government area of Plateau
state.
One of the villagers explained that the incident occurred at
about 3:30 am on Friday as suspected Fulani herdsmen
invaded the village with sporadic gunshots which led to
pandemonium and in the process killing six members of the
family while four escaped with injuries.
The villager, who lamented to the Speaker of Plateau State
House of Assembly, John Clark Dabwan said the entire
village now lives in fear of possible attacks.
Mr Clark while commiserating with the community described
the incident as “a set back to the peace process in the
state” describing the action as a disaster to the community
as well as barbaric and ungodly as those killed were
murdered in cold blood without the community at war with
anybody.
He appealed to members of the community not to take laws
into their hands and avoid any reprisal attack on their
neighbors.
