Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang orders a crackdown on alleged “illegal” HISBA activities in Jos North, instructing security agents to stop what he describes as unauthorized operations. He also calls for arrests of those involved and says the state will prosecute offenders.
The reports frame the governor’s action as a public security measure and a response to activities he considers unacceptable under state authority. Both outlets describe the HISBA group’s operations in Jos North as the immediate trigger for the crackdown, and both attribute the order to Mutfwang’s directive to halt the activities and pursue legal action. No detailed information is provided across the sources about specific incidents, timelines, or the group’s stated position. The overall emphasis differs mainly in wording—one outlet characterizes the activities as “unauthorized,” while another highlights the order to “halt” activities and effect arrests—but the core substance is the same: Mutfwang publicly declares the activities illegal and directs enforcement in Jos North.
