Beware, Bandits Preparing to Attack on December 27th – Judd Saul Warns Plateau Communities
The Executive Director of the United States-based humanitarian organization Equipping the Persecuted, Judd Saul, has issued an urgent security alert warning some communities in Plateau State to remain vigilant against a potential attack by Fulani bandits on Saturday, December 27th, particularly at midnight.
In a post on his verified X account, Saul, whose NGO provides essential support and resources specifically to persecuted Christians in Nigeria, stated that he has privileged and authentic information indicating that the bandits have finalized plans to attack communities such as Kara-Bisichi, Rassa, and Mararaban Foron of Foron District, all in Barkin Ladi Local Government Area, as well as Latyi of Du District and Kuru in Jos South LGA.
In the post, Saul noted that the bandits had initially planned simultaneous attacks on these communities on Friday, December 26th, but postponed them and are now preparing to carry out the attacks on December 27th.
“People of these communities and surrounding areas, such as Latyi of Du District in Jos South LGA, Rassa village of Foron, Mararaban Foron, and Kuru, should be on high alert on December 27th, especially at midnight, because Fulani bandits and terrorists are planning a massive attack,” Saul wrote.
This is not the first time Saul has raised such an alarm. On December 14th, he warned of planned Christmas Day attacks in several Plateau State communities, notably in Riyom, Bokkos, and Barkin Ladi local government areas.
He also lamented that his warnings of planned attacks by bandits and terrorists in the state, especially during the Christmas season, were dismissed by Nigerian authorities and security agencies, who branded him a liar and an alarmist bent on creating chaos.
In the security alert, Saul stated:
“They are gathering forces around the Plateau-Nasarawa border, along the Nasarawa-Benue border, and along the Nasarawa-Kaduna border. They are planning to strike on Christmas Day in Riyom, Bokkos, and Barkin Ladi.
“We received very reliable information that they are weaponizing for a Christmas Day massacre. I am imploring the Nigerian government and President Donald Trump to take action so we do not witness a mass killing of Christians in Nigeria.”
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced Morocco as winners of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The CAF Appeal Board ruled in favour of Morocco, declaring that Senegal forfeited the AFCON final by walking off the field during the game.
Morocco were awarded a 3–0 walkover victory.
This decision upholds Morocco’s appeal following the chaotic events in the match.
DAILY POST recalls that the Senegal team briefly walked off the pitch in protest after a controversial penalty was awarded to Morocco late in regulation time.
They were called back to the field by their captain, Sadio Mané, and later won the game 1–0.
CAF determined that this action constituted a violation of Article 84, or the equivalent regulations concerning refusal to play or abandoning the field.
Under AFCON rules, a team that refuses to continue playing or leaves the field without authorization faces elimination and forfeiture of the match.
A total of three operatives of different security agencies in Anambra State collapsed during the inauguration of Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, on Tuesday.
The incident happened during the parade at the Dr Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka.
The three operatives are one male police operative, another male operative of the Directorate of State Services (DSS) and a female operative of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC.
The police operative collapsed first, followed by the NSCDC operative, who slumped towards the end of the event and was later escorted to an ambulance, after she refused to be moved in a stretcher.
A source said the police operative was later resuscitated, but was still not stable, and was taken in an ambulance to Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, Amaku Awka.
The collapse of the service officers was attributed to fatigue and the long period of parade under harsh sunny weather.
