The OPSH also accused Berom, Tarok and Fulani groups of breeding militias usually used to launch attacks on innocent citizens in the state.
The commander of the operation, Major General Augustine Agundu, made the disclosure as an update of prevailing criminal activities in the area during the 2nd edition of Plateau Youth Summit.
The summit was an annual event organised for youths drawn from the 17 local government areas of the state as a sensitisation towards peace in the respective communities. During the summit, disturbing episodes of massacre of men and women were shown on the screen in which Berom, Tarok, and Fulani militias were displayed perpetrating the acts.
OPSH displayed how Berom, Tarok and Fulani militias perpetrated killings against one another, adding that “all tribes” involve in the conflict. The essence of showing the pictures was to let everyone know the degree of bloodshed committed by same people of the state.
General Agundu however further blamed parents and traditional leaders for their refusal to tell their children the truth, adding that at some instances, communities shield their children after committing crime.
