Benue gov laments as suspected herdsmen kill nine

A statement by the governor’s media aide, Kula Tersoo, was in reaction to the killing of nine people on Tuesday night by suspected armed Fulani herdsmen in three communities in the Logo and Gwer West local government areas.

In the statement, the governor “frowned upon the nefarious activities of the herders who maimed and killed innocent Benue citizens in cold blood for reasons which are difficult to grasp and pin down.”
