Two vigilantes killed during Wednesday’s attack on Rantya community in Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State have been laid to rest amid growing concerns over insecurity in communities surrounding Jos, the state capital.
The burial ceremony, marked by grief and tension, attracted family members, youths and local security volunteers, who lamented the recurring attacks in parts of Jos South and called for stronger security measures.
Speaking at the funeral, the National President of the Berom Youth Moulders Association (BYM), Barrister Dalyop Solomon Mwantiri, expressed concern over what he described as the increasing spread of insecurity towards communities within the Jos metropolitan area.
