Over 36 people killed by terrorist herdsmen in Katsina Ala, Benue State, early hours of Thursday morning.
Based on the recent massacre, over 150 people have reportedly been killed in Benue in the last seven days by heavily armed Fulani Herdsmen, according to local sources.
An observer noted:
Last time I checked there is a Special Forces Command in Makurdi, there is the Air Force Tactical Air Command in Makurdi, there is a Department of State Security (DSS) Command in Makurdi, and a Police Command to compliment.
“What do they discuss during the states security meetings? Who is lying to who?”
According to another observer: “There is a systematic genocide going on in the middle belt of Nigeria and it is largely under reported.”
An analyst noted: “Able bodied young men been slaughtered like chicken daily in Benue and Nigeria, and we are all comfortable going about our business… No value for human life. Oh! Nigeria is bleeding blood daily.”
While another added: “At this rate, I blame Governor Samuel Ortom. What is he waiting for before he gives these people arms to protect themselves from Fulani terrorists.”
