President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday held a closed-door meeting with Plateau State stakeholders led by Governor Caleb Mutfwang at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The high-level meeting, which lasted several hours, is believed to be a follow-up to the President’s recent visit to Plateau State after the deadly Palm Sunday attack in Angwan Rukuba.
Although details of the deliberations were not disclosed, the engagement comes amid ongoing concerns over security in the state following the March 29 attack in Jos, where gunmen killed dozens, including students and staff of the University of Jos.
The attack, which later saw the death toll rise, triggered widespread fear and unrest, leading to temporary closure of the university and deployment of additional security personnel.
During his earlier visit, President Tinubu met with victims’ families and stakeholders, assuring residents of the Federal Government’s commitment to restoring peace and bringing perpetrators to justice.
As part of broader national security measures, the President also announced plans to deploy about 5,000 surveillance cameras across the country, with oversight assigned to the Minister of Communications, Bosun Tijani.
Despite ongoing security interventions, tensions remain in parts of Plateau, with fresh attacks reported in communities such as Riyom, Barkin Ladi, Bokkos, and Kanam, resulting in further casualties.
