He insisted that if a peaceful community is to be formed, criminality must be jointly denounced.

The commander emphasised the significance of Operation HAKORIN DAMISA IV and said that the continuing operation has seen notable successes in the greater Mangu area and throughout Plateau State.

He urged decision-makers at all levels to work together with security personnel to purge local communities of criminals and outside forces determined to wreak havoc on the country.

In order to sustain peace on the Plateau, he informed the stakeholders that OPSH will continue to be equitable and fair to everyone.

Brigadier General DD Shippi (Rtd), the special adviser to the governor of Plateau State on security, stated in his remarks that the circle of violence in the general region of Mangu must end for the peace process to be successful.
