Plateau State has endured a season of sustained bloodshed this year, with Christian residents and local associations increasingly describing the violence as coordinated rather than isolated. Data compiled by the Berom Youth Moulders Association shows that at least 121 people were killed between May and July 11, 2026, in communities across Barkin Ladi, Riyom, Bassa, Jos South, Pankshin, and other local government areas.
