Benue killings: President Buhari orders the Inspector General of Police to relocate to Benue state.
The IG will be moving in with five additional units of PMF personnel and other police special forces. The relocation of the IG became necessary after an increase in the clashes between farmers and herdsmen in the state.

According to the Sole Administrator of Agatu Local Government Area, Mr. Mike Inalegwu has stated that over 5,500 lives were reportedly lost in the bloody crisis between Agatu farmers and Fulani herdsmen since the outbreak of the crisis in 2013.
