A 12-year-old herder, Isa Abubakar, has been killed in Kitago community of Miango district of Bassa local government area of Plateau state.
The state chairman of Gan Allah Fulani Development Association of Nigeria (GAFDAN), Garba Abdullahi, who confirmed the incident to Daily Trust, said the victim was killed after his elder brother left him to get food for them from home.
The GAFDAN chairman said the corpse of the victim was recovered at a Banana plantation in the area, calling on the security to investigate the incident before it escalates.
He said, “We are peace-loving people but our members are being killed by the day. We don’t know our offence. We are witnessing isolated killing. Security agencies should rise up to the occasion and put a stop to it. We are still hoping that security agencies will do the needful and get the perpetrators arrested.”
