One dead, three injured in Jos Sara-Suka fight

Published on April 02, 2025 at 04:45 PM

One person was killed, and three others sustained injuries in a violent clash between rival groups known as Sara-Suka in the Yantifa community of Jos North Local Government Area, Plateau State.

According to residents, members of the rival gangs, armed with machetes, attacked one another on Tuesday evening, causing panic and forcing people to flee.

A local vigilante, Lawan Chizo, confirmed the incident and said security forces, including soldiers, were deployed to restore order.

He noted that the clash involved members of the Sara-Suka groups from Anguwan Rogo and Yantifa, who have been engaged in ongoing conflicts.

“There is still fear among residents, but normalcy has been restored,”;; Chizo stated.

In response to the violence, the Plateau State Commissioner of Police has called for an emergency meeting with community leaders to address the activities of Sara-Suka in the area.

The latest violence comes just two days after three members of Sara-Suka were killed in another clash near the Al-Mohap praying ground.
