No fewer than 15 people have been reportedly killed, and several houses set ablaze following a communal clash between the Mbakine and Ojumole communities in Gwer East Local Government Area of Benue State.

Sources told newsmen that the violence erupted over the weekend after a minor disagreement between two women at a local market spiraled into a deadly conflict, leaving scores dead and properties destroyed.

The warring groups are said to be Igede and Tiv-speaking residents of the area, who have coexisted peacefully for over a century until the latest crisis broke out.

Confirming the incident, the Igede National Youth Leader, Mr. Andyson Egbodo, expressed deep concern over the scale of destruction and loss of lives.

“We are shocked about what happened. The crisis occurred between the Ojumole and Mbakine communities in Gwer East LGA. Akpacha Council Ward is an Igede-speaking area, and for over 100 years, they’ve lived peacefully with their Tiv neighbours like brothers and sisters,” he said.

Egbodo added that the conflict, which began on Friday, intensified on Saturday, leading to the complete destruction of Ojumole and the killing of at least 15 people, including women and children.

“The entire Ojumole community was burnt down. The scale of the destruction is unimaginable,” he lamented.

Efforts to reach the spokesperson of the Benue State Police Command, DSP Udeme Edet, for confirmation were unsuccessful, as her mobile line was unreachable at the time of filing this report.

This has to stop, as if the killings and destruction Fulani herdsmen are causing daily is not enough


Government unwillingness to address such conflict and sometimes deliberately ignore it is the reason we continue to have the reoccurrence

My people in Benue should wake up


No meaningful development will occur when there's no peace and unity

We are one people whether you are Igede, Tiv or idoma, let the hatred stop

I think well-meaning Nigerians should rise up

It takes two greedy fools to start this kind of communal war,

60 years ago they joined the north and south west to force the south east to be part of their union and today they can't even live amongst themselves

Karma . . . It's a bit•`ch*

Chai ! Too bad

Instead of facing your common enemies you're fighting each other. You have weapons to kill yourself but you are powerless in the hands of herdsmen.

Mmm

We used to have 'Rivers of blood' but now it's ' Benue of blood.

Horrible! They can't fight the herdsmen but can kill themselves

Benue people Sha. Fulani is their common enemy, instead of these people to unite to fight their enemy, they rather fight their selves. It is either Tiv and Tiv or Idoma and Idoma or Igede and Igede or cultist fighting each other. You people should wake up

This one no b Fulani heardsmen this one nah dem day kill themselves...we don't behave well in this country

This man follow criticise Urtom ooooo..


Seems persons killed within his two years pass 8 years of Ortom.. Allegedly.
