The temporary site of the UNIJOS Teaching Hospital was reportedly burgled, yesterday, and two oxygen cylinders were stolen by miscreants, while a foodstuff shop was equally looted.

 

 

IN other news, Governor Simon Lalong, yesterday, described the killings as acts of criminality, warning that the state government would not tolerate such.
