He also pledged the National Assembly’s full support in backing the president’s efforts to restore peace and security.
Offering his condolences, the deputy speaker extended sympathy to the families of the victims, Governor Caleb Mutfwang, and the people of Plateau State.
He further urged the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and other relevant bodies to immediately provide relief materials to those affected.
Kalu stressed the need for swift intervention to ease the suffering of the victims.
