Report: Plateau Attackers Infiltrate from Nasarawa, Kaduna, Bauchi, and Taraba

A report reveals that attackers responsible for incessant killings in Plateau State often infiltrate from neighboring states like Nasarawa, Kaduna, Bauchi, and Taraba. The committee investigating the violence, led by Governor Caleb Mutfwang and retired Major General Rogers Ibe Nicholas, found evidence of attackers establishing cells in bordering villages, forcing Plateau communities to flee.
Motives for the attacks include territorial expansion, political destabilization, and criminal activities like cattle rustling. The report highlights the exploitation of unmonitored routes along Plateau's porous borders with several states, facilitating the movement of attackers.
