A community leaders in Plateau has said seven communities in the state were invaded and renamed by the invaders.
The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the Middle Belt Forum, Stanley Kavwam made this claim in an interview he granted Arise television on Thursday, where he also said that the terrorists intimated the community he hails from, Pushit, of a fresh attack, saying, “While driving down from Jos to this place, I received a call. A letter was sent to my village by the terrorists that the attackers were going to invade on the 29th of this December (today).
“All the attacks that were orchestrated, there were letters to that effect that were dropped by an anonymous person, intimating the residents of the Mangu LGA that there would be attacks.”
On the claim that the marauders renamed seven communities upon invasion, he said, “Let me give you a classical example. How could a community be invaded, the inhabitants dislodged, and that community is renamed and they still inhabit that community and the security agencies do not do anything about that?’’
Recall that 195 persons were killed by the terrorists on Christmas eve in the attacks on some communities in the state with over 10,000 others displaced while a lot are left injured.
