Bitrus verified the tragic incident , stating that the assault occurred around 9 pm on Sunday, leaving the community in a state of mourning.

He also indicated that scheduled activities in honor of Nigeria’s 63rd anniversary had been cancelled. “Regrettably, as the rest of the country observes Nigeria’s 63rd independence, we are convening in Kwal to inter our fallen community members”, Bitrus shared.

Bitrus employed the occasion to urge government officials at all levels to take necessary actions to prevent further attacks within Bassa communities.
