The NYSC, through its Director of Press and Public Relations, Eddy Megwa, in a statement issued on Monday, July 10, 2023, said the new location is now Waye Foundation By Buken Academy, Doi-Du in the Jos South Local Government Area of the state.

Plateau State and Mangu especially has been embroiled in crisis and killings, between the locals and the armed militias, while security agencies continued to look on helplessly.

Only on Sunday, the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) yesterday said 15 people were killed following an alleged invasion of their communities in the Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State.

The group also said 78 houses belonging to their members were burnt while over 2,000 cattle were still missing after the invasion.
