15 Houses Burnt As Tiv, Jukun Clash In Makurdi by Nobody: 8:50am On Jan 21, 2019
Several houses have been burnt in Abinsi town Benue State following a clash between Tiv and Jukun ethnic groups.

The clash is coming less than 12 hours after Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom and his Taraba counterpart, Dairus Ishaku promoted peace through a book launch in Wukari, Taraba state.

Abinsi town is located on the busy Makurdi – Gboko federal highway, near the bank of River Benue in Guma local government area.

The clash, it was learnt, started around 6:30pm. But there was no confirmation of death or casualties as at the time of filing this report.

An eyewitness Peter Uke told The Nation about 15 houses belonging to Tiv and Jukuns have been razed down.

Uke said the violence started among suspected cults groups but later turned to an ethnic clash between Jukun and Tiv people.

Ortom and Ishaku on Wednesday launch a book at Federal University of Wukari, in Taraba state to promote peace between Tiv and Jukun.



There was traffic gridlock on the busy Makurdi – Federal Highway as passengers traveling along put up for police arrival.

Our correspondent gathered the new Commissioner of Police Omololu Bishi, who is barely two weeks in the state, has been mobilising his men to bring the situation under control.

NB: communal clashes between jukun and tiv people has occured over the years. it is widely believed that that fights between the two tribes is as old as the time tiv people settled in the benue valley.

PDP looted our treasury, failed to save and placed us on the threshold of recession. This admin took us out of recession, is saving a lot in our reserve and unprecedentedly investing on infrastructure and social investments etc. They want to come back and drag us backward again.

Clashes, strive, anger, suicide and death. ..

The world is packing up. ..


But there is an assurance... The greatest assurance..

Jesus said... "if anyone believes in me, I will raise him up on the last day. "

He repeated this twice for emphasis.... No one has given us this rock solid assurance... Except Jesus.

So, there is no reason to be scared of what the world is turning into... Accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour and live a life of Jesus...

Kai Buhari has turned this country into a blood bath


“Muhammadu Buhari is an agent of destabilisation, ethnic bigot and religious fanatic who, if given the chance, would ensure the disintegration of the country. His ethnocentrism would jeopardise Nigeria’s national unity.””----- Bola Tinubu 2003

for Buhari to boycott a debate which is our only means of holding him hostage and demand for accountability of his government yet he denied us that opportunity as a tyrant he have always bn...APC is busy selling an illitrate, mentally and physically challenged tyrant to us and all u people could do is continuing shifting blames and evading accountability...

I have always wondered why the slave trade lasted so long, it seems blacks are quick to adjust to their unjust predicament, so with the state of the economy and poverty level you believe we are out of recession ? You have accepted the prices of food, the ratio of debt doesn't match infrastructure, security is in shambles but hey we are blacks, built to suffer and slave.
French govt increased tax we all saw what happened and how the govt reversed their actions but here we hail our oppressors and make excuses for them
