The National Publicity Secretary of the Irigwe Youth
Movement, Joseph Chudu Yonkpa, confirmed the incident in a statement in
Jos on Saturday, April 12, 2025.
According to the statement, the gunmen launched a brutal
attack on Zogu village, resulting in the tragic deaths of three members of the
same family: Mr. Weyi Gebe, aged 55 (Father) Mr. Sunday Weyi, aged 25 (Son) and
Mr. Henry Weyi, aged 16 (Son).
“In a horrific act, Mr. Henry Weyi was beheaded by the
Fulani militias," he stated.
“This recent event brings to nine d3aths recorded this week
alone. IDA expresses its utmost displeasure on the deteriorating situation in
Irigwe land and calls on the security agencies to do whatever is required to
halt this barbarism on our land and get perpetrators apprehended to face
justice.
“The way criminal elements invade our motherland and kill
with impunity seems to suggest a more sinister motive than mere reprisals. IDA
therefore, calls on the Plateau State government and the security to do the
needful and stop the killing of innocent people in Irigwe land.”
