It started From Mongor but the attackers were chased out by security forces. The attackers then moved to Daffo and attacked the community but security swiftly responded and chased them out.

On April 2 alone, they killed over 10 people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll thanks to the Nigerian military and police for their swift response to distress calls, which helped minimize casualties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe extend our deepest sympathies to the victims of the recent invasions in Ruwi, Mangor, Daffo, Manguna, Hurti, and Tadai. We call on emergency agencies such as NEMA, SEMA, and the Nigerian Red Cross to swiftly provide relief to the displaced and injured.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The latest attacks have forced residents of the affected communities and their neighbors to flee for their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the Plateau State Government has condemned the attacks in Mangor Tamiso, Daffo, Manguna (Tagai), Hurti and Tadai communities of Bokkos Local Government Area of the State on the night of April 2nd, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Commissioner of Information and Commissioner, Joyce Ramnap, also pleaded for calm among citizens of the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI extend the State Government\u2019s deepest sympathies to the victims of the recent invasions in Ruwi, Mangor, Daffo, Manguna, Hurti, and Tadai.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am calling for calm and restraint.
