Suspected herdsmen kill 7, injure others in fresh Benue attack


Makurdi—At least seven persons were feared dead in fresh attacks by suspected herdsmen in Arufu, Mchia and Chembe communities of Logo Local Government Area of Benue State.[/b]


The attack also left several persons injured while others are reported missing.



It was gathered that the marauders had, Sunday evening, laid ambush for commuters on Arufu-Chembe road and shot indiscriminately at unsuspecting commuters plying the road after which they stormed Mchia community at night and killed seven passengers.

Confirming the incident, a community leader in the area, Chief Joseph Anawah, said the attack was unprovoked.

He said: “Armed herdsmen in collaboration with some militia on Sunday shot at a commercial vehicle heading to Iorza where some passengers suffered injury. They also invaded Mchia where they murdered eight people.”
Chairman of the LGA, Rev. Jonathan Adagbe, who also confirmed the attack, said seven corpses had been recovered while several others were still missing.

He said: “It’s true that armed herders in collaboration with Jukun militias attacked my people yesterday (Sunday) at about 9 pm

“With the help of policemen, we were able to recover five corpses Sunday night while two corpses were recovered this morning (Monday morning). They also shot at a commercial vehicle where two people were injured.



“As I am talking to you now, the two people who sustained injuries have been taken to the hospital at Anyim but many people are still missing.”

Omenka will not write anything about the killer herdsmen. But he has time to threaten Seun with a lawsuit.

And this senseless carnage continues. Meanwhile, it is not time to have a sovereign national conference in Nigeria? Will this shit continue to diminish some nationals while the failed state continued to totters? So so sad.

Kyase I hope it's still Ortom that is still killing your people.
all in the name of defending fulani herdsmen killing your people just because of Apc.
what politics can do to a man.
you'll support evil finish, then run to sports section to evade your conscience.
I hope you're happy with these killings of your people.
now Ortom is out of power I hope you don't claim it's Alia when he eventually falls out with Apc?
what a crying shame.

The killing in Nigeria is now on different level.

Can't those being attacked repel the attacks?

The solution remains state and local government police armed with military grade weapons to match those fulani terrorists.

The language has changed. Nobody mentioned Buhari again on Fulani menaces.

This is reason we say stop playing politics with security.

Soon, SouthWest would be no different. The way and manner they believe Fulani & Yoruba's are ONE is funny. More like they not seeing what's happening in other regions.

...and Fulanis' are good at being HUMBLE, till their wings & bones are fully matured, then they start their wahala

When the head is Rotten
The head is clueless
The head is incompetent
The head is only interested in his 2027 reelection

This is what you get..
Destruction of lives and properties
Hunger and poverty
Unemployment and infrastructural decay
Renovation of National Assembly with 30b
Renovation of VP house with 10b
buying of yatch and SUVs
Widespread corruption
What Betta Edu did is what all Tinubu appointees are currently doing.. she was unfortunate to have been caught...

Buhari is gone
Tinubu has to put a stop to this nonsense
You’re not the president Nigerians elected but you’re the one they have, you better step up before factions like ipob begin to emerge across the country to protect themselves. At that stage it’s chaos
