A social media commentator has slammed the Chief of Defence Staff, General Olufemi Oluyede, over his remarks likening terrorists to “prodigal sons” who deserve rehabilitation rather than elimination, following a deadly Palm Sunday attack in Jos, Plateau State.

The criticism comes in the wake of a violent attack on March 29, 2026, in Jos North Local Government Area, where gunmen stormed Angwan Rukuba and killed at least 20 people.

The incident intensify panic in the community and renewed concerns over the worsening security situation in the region.

The attack also led to public outrage, with residents taking to the streets in protest. In response, the Plateau State Government imposed a 48-hour curfew to restore order and prevent further violence.

Governor Caleb Mutfwang visited the affected area shortly after the attack, arriving in an armoured vehicle amid tight security.

His visit was aimed at assessing the situation and reassuring residents of the government’s commitment to restoring peace.

Public reactions on social media intensified following the circulation of a satirical cartoon by BusinessDay, which mocked the Defence Chief’s comments and reflected widespread frustration over the handling of insecurity in the country.



Many users expressed anger over the repeated attacks in northern Nigeria, with some accusing authorities of failing to take decisive action against armed groups.

This backlash spotlight the ongoing tensions and concerns over the government’s approach to addressing insecurity.

The latest attack adds to a growing list of violent incidents in Plateau State, raising fresh questions about the effectiveness of Nigeria’s security strategies and the safety of residents in affected communities.
