Rev Dachomo who led the repentant looters to the new Government House in Rayfield, Jos appealed to Governor Simon Bali Along to temper justice with mercy by granting forgiveness to the looters. 

Receiving the items on behalf of the Governor, Secretary to the Government of the State Prof. Danladi Abok Atu commended Rev. Dachomo for appealing to the consciences of the affected persons who came forward to ask for forgiveness. 

He said the action of the looters was a great disservice to the State as not only food items were looted, but heavy machinery, public infrastructure and businesses worth billions of naira were stolen and also destroyed but promised to forward the plea of the repentant persons to the Governor for further consideration.
