Security in Kajo-Keji County has been stepped up following a fatal attack in Nyianga-Muda Village, Bori, Kangapo II Payam, claiming lives of three people.<\/p>\n

According to the county commissioner, Wani Jackson Mule, one other person was also injured in the incident that occurred over the weekend<\/p>\n

Commissioner Wani stated that suspected armed youths, believed to be from hold-out groups, carried out the violent attack.<\/p>\n

Thos killed include 82 years old Julius Loke, a traditional chief of Nyianga-Muda Village; Standly Wani Phili, a medical worker from the same village; and 27 years old, Simaya Ladu James, all residents of Liwolo Village, Liwolo Payam.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, 19 years old Tunda Bosco, the fourth civilian victim, sustained a gunshot wound to his left lateral foot when the attackers opened fire. The injury caused damage to his tarsal muscles, leading to an open fracture on his left leg.<\/p>\n

Kajo-Keji county commissioner described the event as startling and impediment to development.<\/p>\n

“These acts of violence are not only inhuman but also destabilize the county, spreading fear among residents and obstructing progress towards sustainable development,” the commissioner said in a press release.<\/p>\n

Despite the attack, the Commissioner encouraged the population to resume normal activities and coexist peacefully. He assured Kajo-Keji residents of the government’s capacity to quell the current security situation in some parts of the county.<\/p>\n

He further called upon residents of Kajo-Keji County, particularly those in areas experiencing insecurity, to cooperate with the Joint Operation Forces deployed to protect lives and property.<\/p>\n

“I call upon all community leaders, including religious and traditional leaders, businesspeople, civil society activists, and political elites, to unite to support peace and development in Kajo-Keji County,” the statement added.<\/p>\n

The Commissioner concluded by stating that the assailants are still at large.<\/p>\n
