He called on the villagers of Barkin Ladi to be very vigilant not to be taken unawares by these killer armed men rampaging around communities of the Northern senatorial district of the state.

 

Pam expressed regrets that the way and manner these local miners were shot dead at Tin mining site of Razat Community of Kwock, Ropp district of the restive council by the attackers should be condemned by all peace-loving people of the state.

Rev Pam charged the state government and the security agencies in the state not to leave anything to chance in arresting the perpetrators of the evil acts in the state.

 

“Let me tell you that there is no resting place for the wicked, these evil men would definitely be caught by the law enforcement personnel s   very soon,”

 

He added that the killers of Gyang, Jillim,  Lamba, David and a woman by name Rebeca at the Tin mining site of Razat must be brought to justice so that other merchants of death planning such heinous crime against humanity be deterred from committing such crimes in any part of the state.
