Abuja, March 17, 2024 –
Senator Isah Jibrin, representing Kogi East Senatorial District, vehemently condemns the escalating hostility between the Ayeke and Enweli communities of Ibaji, Kogi State. The violence has resulted in heavy casualties, causing great concern and distress among the populace.

It is imperative to restore law and order, protect the lives and properties of innocent citizens, and prevent further escalation of violence.
