    Plateau State Governor, Caleb Muftwang, has banned night grazing and motorcycle movement from 7pm to 6am across the state.

    Mutfwang declared the ban in state-wide broadcast issued on Wednesday.

    This is coming few days after unknown gunmen attacked Zikwe village in Bassa local government area, killing over 47 people.

    The killing which has been heavily condemned across the country came barely three weeks after similar attack was launched across several communities in Bokko LGA, leaving over 50 dead.

    Mutfwang, in his broadcast message, held that attacks were calculated, persistent, and painful.

    He, however, maintained that the state remains unbroken while declaring the prohibition of night grazing.

    The Plateau governor also disclosed the provision of free medical care to victims, and relief materials.

    He urged traditional rulers and youth leaders to revive local vigilante patrols in partnership with security forces.

    “I speak to you not just as your Governor, but as your brother one who deeply feels the pain and sorrow that has again darkened our land.
    “In the late hours of Sunday, April 13th, the peace of Zikwe Village in Bassa LGA was shattered by a brutal attack that claimed the lives of innocent men, women, and children.
    “This comes while we still mourn the tragic loss of over 50 lives in Bokkos.
    “The scale, the frequency, and intent of these atrocities are not mistakeable.
    “Let us be clear, this is not random violence. This is not an isolated conflict between farmers and herders. What we are witnessing is a systematic and premeditated campaign.
    “One that seeks to displace, destabilize, and instill terror and fear on our people and communities. These attacks are calculated, persistent, and painful but Plateau remains unbroken.
    “I commend our emergency responders and security agencies for their swift action and thank President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for directing security forces to pursue justice with urgency.
    “In response to these attacks, the following measures take effect from Wednesday, April 16th: Night grazing is strictly prohibited; Transportation of cattle after 7 PM is banned; Motorcycle movement is restricted from 7 PM to 6 AM statewide.
    “All hospitals in affected areas will provide free medical care to victims, and relief materials are already on their way. I call on traditional rulers and youth leaders to revive local vigilante patrols in partnership with security forces.
    “We must be united in protecting our land, guided by justice and law. To the grieving families in Zikwe, Bokkos, and beyond your pain is ours.
    “We mourn with you, and we will not rest until peace is restored. Let us remain calm, vigilant, and united. Together, we will rise beyond this grief stronger, safer, and more determined than ever.” Mutfwang state.
