Expressing his deep concern, President Tinubu lamented the tragic loss of innocent lives, including that of an eight-month-old baby in the Farin Lamba community of Vwang District, Jos South Local Government. The President stressed that conflicts of this nature bring immense sorrow and underscore the necessity for tolerance and forgiveness to foster vibrant, peaceful, and prosperous communities.

He reaffirmed his government’s unwavering determination to eradicate violent crimes and all forms of criminality throughout Nigeria. The President has directed security agencies to identify and apprehend the masterminds behind these despicable acts, ensuring they face the full force of the law.
