It has been two months since gunmen attacked Bindi Jebu community in Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State, killing at least 27 people in a midnight raid. The tragic incident left behind widows, orphans, and displaced families struggling to pick up the pieces of their lives.
According to Mediaplusng.com, the victims of the massacre were buried in a mass grave amid tears and grief. But weeks later, survivors say they still live in fear as their calls for help and security assurances have yet to receive any meaningful response from the Federal Government.
Residents told reporters that the community has been left vulnerable, with little or no security presence to prevent another attack. Many say they now sleep in shifts, fearing a repeat of the bloodshed that claimed their loved ones.
Mediaplusng.com also reports that local leaders are calling on both state and federal authorities to urgently intervene. They are demanding relief materials for displaced families, stronger security measures, and long-term support to rebuild the devastated community.
For the people of Bindi Jebu, the memory of the massacre is still fresh, and the silence from government authorities has left them feeling abandoned. Their plea is simple: they want justice, protection, and the assurance that such a tragedy will never happen again.
