Gunmen attack a busy vegetable market in Mangu town, in Plateau State, killing three people and injuring scores of others. Reports say the victims include two women and a young man, and the assault triggers panic among traders and shoppers.
Local officials urge a response from security agencies. The MDA calls for action after the attack, which both outlets describe as occurring on a busy market night in Mangu Local Government Area. While both accounts focus on the same location, casualty figures, and the resulting injuries, they differ slightly in phrasing and the emphasis on public appeals for security measures.
