The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has decried the attacks, and killings in Dabna village in Hong Local Government Area (LGA) of Adamawa State.

In a statement signed by Mustapha’s Director of Information, Willie Bassey, on Monday, the SGF expressed gratitude to security agencies for containing the attacks.

Mustapha said the attacks had been repeated, and led to the loss of lives, property, and livelihood of Dabna people, and their neighbouring communities.

Recall that some unknown gunmen, on Sunday night, attacked the community, and fired shots indiscriminately at people.
