Terrorists have killed two persons – a father and his son in another attack that has become routine in villages across Plateau State.
The location of the latest attack is Durbi village of Shere district, Jos East local government area.
According to Channels Television, Transition Implementation Committee chairman Markus Nyam confirmed the latest attack on Sunday revealing that the attackers invaded the village on Saturday night and killed a father and his son.
Nyam also said that the efforts of the vigilantes in the community who engaged the assailants resulted in the death of one of the attackers as others fled.
The attack is coming when the state is yet to recover from the death of over one hundred ninety persons in the Christmas Eve attacks on Bokkos and Barkin-Ladi local government areas of the state.
It is not exactly clear why the frequency of the attacks in Plateau, and other areas of the Middle Belt.
Bishop of the Sokoto Diocese of the Catholic Church, Mathew Hassan Kukah said the attackers seek political power which they intend to use in running Nigeria according to their ideology.
