The Plateau Youth Council Northern Zone believes recent attacks target their people's money through land grabs. They point to over 50 deaths in two communities of the Bassa Local Government Area. Youth leader Samson Chiroma asks why these attacks always happen just before farming season starts. He thinks someone wants to keep them off their farms to create money problems.
Chiroma sends a message to the attackers that nothing will stop their people from using their land for farming. He says Plateau people welcome others but warn against seeing their peaceful nature as weakness. The youth group asks the federal government to find those behind the killings in the northern Plateau areas. They want these people arrested to teach others not to try similar attacks.
The youth also ask Plateau State leaders to strengthen Operation Rainbow's security group. They want better equipment for this local security team. Chiroma calls for adding more security workers to help existing police groups. The youth think these steps can help keep their communities safe from further attacks.
