A resident of Kawel village in Mushere Chiefdom, Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State, has recounted the harrowing experience of losing his younger sister to suspected Fulani b@ndits who att@cked the community on Sunday, June 21, 2026.
The grieving man, Daniel Nanle, shared the painful ordeal with Plateau State Deputy Governor, Ngo Josephine Piyo, during a condolence visit to the community on Thursday.
Nanle narrated that his pregnant younger sister, Larai Danjuma, had gone into labour that night and was rushed to the community’s Primary Health Centre, where she was taken into the labour room in preparation for delivery.
However, the family’s anticipation was cut short when t3rrorists invaded the facility and k!ll3d her, along with other patients and health workers present at the time.
“My immediate younger sister, Larai Danjuma, was married to Mr. Danjuma Damial.
She was taken to the hospital because she was due for delivery.
Unfortunately, the att@ckers came and k!ll3d her in the labour room,” he told the Deputy Governor.
Nanle used the occasion to appeal to the state government, the federal government, and security agencies to take urgent and decisive action to prevent further att@cks on the community.
