Five of them were said to have been killed on Tuesday at Gana-Ropp village, while the other three, including a Pastor were also attacked and killed at Nding village of Barkin Ladi LGA on Thursday morning.
Agundu, while reacting to the murder of three soldiers working with the Special Task Force, Operation Safe Haven, described the killings in the state as precarious and an act of lawlessness.
He vowed that the troops were set to deal with the situation decisively.
He said, “The peace on the Plateau has been disrupted to a situation that is no longer acceptable.
“I lost some men yesterday because certain persons have decided to take laws into their hands.
“I have declared enough is enough. What happened in Barkin Ladi will never repeat itself again. I’ve locked down Barkin Ladi completely and no human being is going to cause further havoc in that local government.
“Whatever is going on in Barkin Ladi local government, Riyom Local Government, Bassa Local Government, Bokkos Local Government, that is enough. My troops are resolved to bring the situation decisively under control,” Agundu added.
