Suspected herdsmen on Monday evening launched fresh assaults in Agatu and Apa Local Government areas of Benue State, leaving several people dead.

DAILY POST gathered that in Agatu LGA, one Sunday Dutse, a native of Odejo and younger brother to a former chairman of the local government, was killed along the Odugbeho-Ogbaulu road.

Dutse was reportedly displaced from his community in an earlier herdsmen attack and had been taking refuge in Ogwule-Kaduna, also in Agatu LGA.

Earlier in the day, a separate attack occurred in EdikwG’Icho, a community in Apa LGA, where three youths were ambushed and killed.

Two of the victims were reportedly from EdikwG’Icho, while the third hailed from Ugbokpo.

These attacks came despite the recent visit by top military authorities, including the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), who promised increased security measures in troubled parts of the state.

This is heartbreaking, Benue is bleeding everyday and Mr president is not even concerned at all

Just like his predecessors, history will not be kind to him.

He would have declared State of emergency if Benue had crude oil or the state is being led by the opposition party

Imagine the foreign killers terrorists snuffing life of the citizens of a sovereign nation while the politics of 2027 is the obsession of the powers that be.

Benue, Plateau, Borno are among the state the duncehead should have declared state of emergency but partisan political sentiments and consideration will not allow him to be rational. Rivers state is what need ER.

The worthless chief of army staff said he has relocated to Benue, so why the continued attacks? Benue people had better devise a way of defending themselves like forming secret militias because most of the conventional Nigerian security agencies are working with the herdsmen.

Why is it taking the national assembly this long to a bill that will lead to the establishment of state police?

You should be asking why most of Tinubu's bill es 1st, 2nd and 3rd reading in one day into law but state police bill has not ed even 1st reading, is Tinubu not concerned about his citizens?

If it is not failure on Tinubu's part to secure his citizens, would we even be talking about state police?

Here we go again, blaming the wrong people for the government’s failure to secure our country.

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country

Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

Nigerians are busy going to greet the President in his Lagos house. Whether to seek favour, beg for money, praise him or be friends with him.
Nobody talks about how Nigerians are being killed daily for no just reason. This is one of the reasons why People take up arms. When the people of Benue, Kogi etc decide to take up arms finally, then the Government will have bigger problems on their hands.
For now, the Government is enjoying these killings and feel unconcerned about it.
