The Commander of the taskforce, Major General Anthony Atolagbe, said this when he visited the affected village for on-the-spot assessment.
He confirmed that the taskforce has summoned for questioning, the soldiers on duty at Nkiedonwhro village, Bassa Local Government area where the killings took place.
The soldiers were said to have abandoned their duty posts when the suspected gunmen invaded the community and killed the villagers.
He confirmed that the alleged soldiers have been sent to the headquarters of the task force in Jos for proper investigation on how the attack took place in the village under their watch, especially given the curfew imposed on the area by government which restricted movement of persons.
