Following the fresh attack by unknown persons on Wednesday in Barkin-Ladi Local Government Area of the state which led to the death of a 17-year-old Fulani herder and 35 cows, the Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang has directed security operatives to immediately fish out the perpetrators of the act.
