Governor Samuel Ortom has canceled all his engagements for tomorrow including the scheduled swearing-in of new members of the State Executive Council.
The Governor's directive is in respect of recent attacks in the Sankera area of the state particularly today's murder of innocent people at the Zaki-Biam market in Ukum local government area.
He condemns the attack and restates his call on the people with useful information that will lead to the arrest of notorious criminals in the area including Terwase Akwaza, alias Ghana to contact security agencies, assuring that information sources will be protected.
Governor Ortom commiserates with families of the victims, promising that the state security council would redouble efforts to apprehend the culprits and bring them to justice.
He says the latest development underscores the need for all good spirited individuals and organizations to join hands with government to confront and surmount the security challenges.
Governor Ortom regrets the inconveniences the cancellation of scheduled engagements may cause those affected but craves their understanding of the circumstances.
