President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called for a return to peace and stability in Jos, urging residents and leaders to restore the harmony the city was once known for.
The President made the appeal on Thursday during an engagement with stakeholders following recent attacks in Plateau State.
According to theReportersNG, the Ungwan Rukuba community in Jos North Local Government Area came under attack on Sunday, leaving several people dead and many others injured.
Speaking at the meeting, Tinubu said no amount of mourning could bring back those who lost their lives, stressing the need for leaders to prioritise peace and prosperity over actions that lead to violence and suffering.
He noted that his intervention goes beyond condolence, emphasising the urgency of achieving lasting peace and warning that such attacks must not be allowed to recur.
He also announced plans to strengthen surveillance across the state, revealing that over 5,000 CCTV cameras would be deployed to improve monitoring and enhance rapid response to security threats.
Tinubu reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to restoring peace and ensuring accountability for the violence.
