13 killed as bandits attack Benue communities

Bandits have killed a woman identified as Mrs Shoni Michael in Plateau State.

Residents said her daughter, who was with her, escaped when she was also shot by the terrorists before they fled into the bush.

It was learnt that the victims were cooking food in their house in the Mangu community when the gunmen attacked them, killing the woman on the spot while her daughter sustained injuries.

The incident, According Metro further gathered, happened in Kikyau village in Mangu Local Government Area on Wednesday evening.

A resident of Kikyau village, Charity Jatau, confirmed the attack to According Metro in Jos on Thursday.

Jatau said, “An aged woman was killed in our Kikyau village last night after she was shot by armed men who we know to be Fulani terrorists. Her name is Shoni Michael but her daughter sustained gun shot injuries.

“It’s very sad because the victims were at their residence while preparing food for the family at 4:30 pm on Wednesday when the terrorists suddenly appeared and opened fire on them.”

The resident who condemned the attack called on the security agents to beam their searchlight on Kikyau and the neighbouring communities to stop the activities of the terrorists that had become more regular in recent time.

The spokesman for the Plateau State Police Command was not readily available when contacted on the incident as his phone indicated that it was unreachable.
