Security: Reps seek Federal Intervention After Taraba Bandit Attac

The House of Representatives has called on the Federal Government to strengthen security cooperation among agencies in Taraba, Plateau and Bauchi States to prevent further attacks on communities.

The call comes after a bandit attack on Binnari community in Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State, which claimed lives.

The resolution followed a motion sponsored by Representative Mohammed Audu.

The House also urged federal humanitarian agencies, including the North-East Development Commission and the National Emergency Management Agency, to provide relief materials to affected communities and support families of victims and survivors.
