Buhari, who was in Plateau to condole with the government and people of the state over the renewed killings in the area, held interactive sessions with traditional rulers, community and religious leaders, representatives of youth and women groups as well as security chiefs.

The Speaker, who condemned the attack, affirmed that government cannot continue to tolerate the situation where innocent people were being killed in hundreds.

He also stressed the for Nigeria to sustain the fight against violence, noting that the nation cannot lose the battle and continue to keep its civilisation.

Dogara pointed out the level of devastation caused by Boko Haram insurgency in the North-east and advised the government to prevent a similar situation in other parts of the country.

On Tuesday, the police confirmed that 100 people were killed over the weekend in six villages of Xlands, Gindin Akwati, Ruku, Nhgar, Kura Falls and Kakuruk, all in Gashish district in Barkin Ladi Local Government Area.

He held an interactive session with the traditional rulers, religious leaders, representatives of youth, women and trade union groups among other stakeholders in the state.

The President ordered the security chiefs to be vigilant and ensure that the lives and property of the people were protected.
