Update From . COM

Yet-to-be-identified Gunmen invaded Zaki Akpuuna 1 and Diom communities of Mbaterem district in the Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State, killing 24 residents, Reports.

It Was Gathered By , that the gunmen, suspected to be bandits, invaded the communities around 8am on Saturday, July 8, 2023.

Locals said the attackers also burnt several houses in adjourning villages.

The council Chairman, Mr Kartyo Tyoumbur, confirmed that 24 bodies were recovered from the two attacked villages.

“I learnt that after they attacked Akpuuna and Diom, the armed gang went to Tine-Nune community on Zaki Biam-Wukari Road, where the military confronted them,” he said.

"Though no one knows how many of them were killed, I believe some of them must have been neutralised in that exchange.”

The chairman, who decried the attack, said no one knew the motive behind it.

Spokesperson of the state police command, SP Catherine Anene, confirmed the attack in a statement on Saturday.

“Today 8/7/2023 around 12pm, a militia gang invaded Akpuna village, Ukum LGA of Benue State, and shot sporadically. Upon receipt of this information, police teams, in collaboration with other security agencies, rushed to the area and engaged these bandits, who were eventually repelled,” the PPRO stated.

"Eight corpses were recovered at the scene while many other injured persons were taken to a hospital for treatment. Operation is ongoing in the area.”

Are these bodies lying life less that of humans?

Can we really say we have rulers in this country?

How can lives of Nigerian citizens be this cheap?

As it is in Benue State so it is in Platuea State and all their neighbouring states.

Is it safe for one to say there is no government in this country.

Since over 15 years ago Nigeria has lost more of her citizens than all the countries of the world that are fighting various wars put together.

The most painful aspects is that Nigerian politicians are going about as if nothing is wrong.

You will never see Hell-anus, Omenka, SeunMsg on this thread.

The above mentioned people are the most useless propagandists since the history of mankind.

Let it be that this news happened in the East, they will riddle the whole place with news of how the South East is going underwater.

But this is Benue right here undergoing a violent wave of ethnic cleansing due to saying no to Fulani taking over their lands for cow grazing.

But what do I know? Fulani should do with them as they please. These iddiotic Benue people are same that was used by Fulani the most during the civil war. They can burn to ashes for all I care.
