PPF Hails Gov Mutfwang’s Swift Response To Mangu Attack

The Plateau Patriotic Front (PPF) has commended Governor Caleb Mutfwang for his swift and compassionate response to the tragedy that followed the mob attack in the Mangun District of Mangu Local Government Area, which claimed eight lives on Friday evening.

In a statement issued Sunday, the PPF National Coordinator, Mani Imman, praised Governor Mutfwang for his immediate visit to the victims and his firm stance against mob violence that led to the tragedy in Mangu. 

The victims of the Mangu tragedy mostly travellers en route to a wedding in Quan’pan LGA from Zaria, Kaduna State, were mistaken for intruders amid heightened tensions in the region.

Preliminary reports confirmed that the travellers had lost their way and inadvertently entered the Mangun community around 6:00 p.m., only to be attacked by an irate mob spurred by recent terrorist incursions in the area.

Governor Mutfwang, visibly distressed by the tragedy during his visit to the General Hospital in Mangu where survivors are receiving treatment, described the incident as “deeply painful and entirely avoidable.”

PPF emphasized that the Governor is focused on delivering good governance and urged citizens to give support to the governor by being law-abiding and not allow frustration to make them incur more problems that would derail the Governor’s focus.
