Suspected armed herdsmen have killed no fewer than 13 people and two Catholic priests in Ayar-Mbalom community in Gwer East Local Government Area of Benue State.

The armed men reportedly stormed the St. Ignatius’ Catholic Church, during an early morning mass on Tuesday, killing the priests and 13 others.

The Bishop of St Murray hospital Makurdi where the corpses were deposited confirmed to Channels Television that 13 bodies have so far been recovered.

The attack comes barely four days after the murder of 10 persons by suspected herdsmen in Guma Local Council.

However, the Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, who is said to be out in the field, is yet to confirm the attack.
