Unidentified gunmen attacked Kogwom village in Vom district of Jos south local government
area, Plateau State, Thursday night killing 10 individuals of the same family, less than half of whom were under 6 years, including a 2-month-old baby! Dear Lord! It takes someone or something who isn't human at all to take the life of a baby like this.Two members of the family survived but were
fatally injured. The family had gathered for the
preparation of the funeral of their grandmother who died a few days ago which was why there were so many
members of the family in the compound and they had just finished a family meeting at night when the gunmen attacked them.
Eye witnesses claim the attackers were dressed as soldiers and were armed with guns and machetes and are suspected to be Muslim Fulani herdsmen. The military spokesman in Plateau has assured that no soldiers were involved in the attack and that the attackers only managed to gain access to their old uniforms. The question is, how did they manage to get their old uniforms if no soldier was involved at all? Dear God, when will this stop? When will this country know peace again?
