Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by nairalandankrah(op): 7:04pm On Dec 03, 2025
The National Coalition Against Mass Killings and Impunity (NCAMKI), supported by the Gani Fawehinmi Memorial Organisation, has criticised the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Christopher Musa, over his claim that residents of Benue State “provided food, shelter and even women” to the armed killers behind the Yelwata massacre.

In a statement by its National Secretariat, the group described the remarks as “reckless, insensitive, and highly provocative.” It condemned the “dangerous and insulting narrative,” arguing that it re-victimises grieving communities while deflecting attention from the government’s failure to protect lives and property.

The coalition warned that such comments amount to victim-blaming and risk fuelling division and distrust between security agencies and traumatised communities.

Benue insecurity is mostly reprisal back and forth attack

They pay bandits, herdsmen to attack each other

Late Gana revealed a little before he was silenced

Is this a joke or something, if it’s true then something is fundamentally wrong with our people from that part of the country irrespective of their religion

You sure say this one no go worse pass the former?

Like how are supposed to benefit from this information? Your job is to eliminate the terrorists and the enablers too
Re: Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by Musty112:
They are enablers. No stranger knows the grave of a blind man. Remember the Owo massacre, everything was traced back to the root, to the house in the community that provided shelter for the goddamm terrorists. May the curse of God be on all perpetrators and enablers of violence on Nigeria.

NB: Before you criticize the man, know that he is not your average Nigerian, he was in a position to know what he is saying.

It seems oga Musa knows a lot about these bandit terrorists activities. He appears fits for the job

There's nothing reckless about what he said.
He just started the obvious.

This kind of narrative only deepens distrust. Benue residents deserve protection, not blame. Leaders should focus on accountability, justice, and real solutions not statements that worsen the wounds.
Re: Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by jaxxy(m): 8:44pm On Dec 03, 2025
what is he trying to insinuate? From the attackers are not from Nigeria to this nonsense yet not one bandit caught.

They keep saying different things and confusing themselves. mind u with no single evidence. undecided

If what Musa said is true, considering your opinion above, that means we will eliminate all living souls in Benue.

Dey play. It's all over the country. They are getting abetted by indigines of anywhere you see them terrorising

Residents of Benue he said..

Fulanis are also residents of Benue. They are the ones who provide Intel to the militia group.

Citizens would cooperate or be wiped out.
The new CDS should roll up his sleeves already.

This is the sad reality on ground. Many locals are conniving with bandits to harm their people. Sometimes, they even commit the crimes themselves and blame it on Fulanis.
Re: Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by BondRiv: 8:55pm On Dec 03, 2025
I called for the sack of Musa when he was CDS. I have no confidence in him making any positive difference as Minister of Defence. The man is a "politician".
Re: Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by Gandollar(f): 8:56pm On Dec 03, 2025
Yet these residents since they are known for their roles in the unfortunate incident were not apprehended and prosecuted.
Re: Residents Of Benue State “Provided Food, Shelter And Women” To Bandits- CDS MUSA by potent5(m): 8:56pm On Dec 03, 2025
Radio without battery. So who killed first? Let us start from there. And what took folanni there in the interior villages in the first place? Why is the violence restricted to rural areas and not in the urban areas?

But why is this story now coming out after he became minister? Someone wants to soil baba's name

Pure whitefaced lies. I lived in Gwer West for a couple of years and stayed a while in Makurdi as well. They will say anything to deflect blames from themselves for their inability to tackle the menace in Benue state. Now they are attempting to push the blames to the indigenes.
