Information available to 247ureports.com indicates the true story behind the disappearance and death of General Idris Akali in Jos, Plateau State may have been more sinister than earlier thought. Available information suggests the death of the military General may have been related to his activities with the Jos communal clash between the Fulanis and the indigenes of Plateau State.

Speaking to a source who claims to be a security expert within the military, he revealed what he claims to be a public secret within the Berom community. The source claims that the youths within the Jos community had been monitoring the activities of the late General. They had held suspicions that the Military General was working in tandem with the Fulani militia who have been attacking the community in recent years.

The community had held suspicions of General Idris M. Akali having a close network with the Fulani attackers. They strongly believe he was facilitating resources and providing sensitive intelligence to the attackers.

Their suspicions was further strengthened by General Akali frequent visits to the area – and the unfettered access the Fulani attackers had into their communities and the ease with which they escape uncaught after each deadly attack on a whole community. They strongly believed Akali was providing military assistance to the Fulani attackers – which garnered them invincibility in the hands of the military. “They were always one step ahead of the Army”.
