The Plateau State police command has confirmed 22 people killed in Saturday’s attack on commuters around Rukuba Road in Jos North Local Government Area.

Suspected militias reportedly opened fire on a convoy of Muslim faithful in the area, with 22 killed of the 90 people travelling.

Police’s spokesman Ubah Ogaba, in a statement said at about 08:28 a.m, the Plateau State police command received a distress call that a group of attackers along Rukuba Road of Jos North Local Government Area attacked a convoy of five buses with Muslim faithful who were coming back from the Annual Zikr prayer in Bauchi State and heading to Ikare in Ondo State.

He added that 22 people were killed and 14 injured in the attack.

He said: “Upon receipt of the report, a team of police personnel, the military and other sister agencies were immediately mobilised to the scene where seven victims were rescued and six suspects arrested.

“The Commissioner of Police, Plateau State Command, CP Edward Egbuka, along with the GOC, 3 Division, Major General Ibrahim Ali, also visited the scene and ordered for a discreet investigation to fish out other perpetrators of this barbaric act at large.”

He added that normalcy has returned to the area.

“The CP warned that those that perpetrated this dastardly act and others that incited it will be made to face the full wrath of the law.

“The Command urged the public to remain calm and to furnish the police with useful information that will aid the investigation.”
