Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged the people of Plateau State to unite in order to combat insecurity throughout the state.
Yilwatda issued the warning during a visit to Kanam Local Government Area on Sunday in the wake of recent attacks in which bandits killed a number of people, including soldiers and vigilante officers. He urged locals to take part in bolstering security measures in their communities so that everyone can live in peace and without fear.
In addition to visiting Alh. Muhammadu Mu’azu Muhammadu, the Emir of Kanam, at his palace, the APC Chairman consoled the attack victims and offered his sincere condolences to the impacted families and the entire emirate, emphasizing that he stands in solidarity with the people during this trying time.
At a moment like this, Yilwada said, his thoughts were firmly with the impacted families and he stood in solidarity with the entire Emirate, praying for the quick restoration of peace, harmony, and stability across Kanam as well as comfort for those who had lost loved ones.
“The people of Kanam continue to inspire me with their unwavering courage, unity, and resilience in the face of adversity,” he said.
These attributes serve as a potent reminder that hope and teamwork can triumph even in trying times.
Therefore, he continued, “it is incumbent upon all of us, leaders and citizens alike, to renew our commitment to fostering peace, strengthening security, and building a future where every community can thrive without fear.”
