Nigerians await Tinubu’s action as herdsmen spread terror in Benue, Enugu, Abia
President Bola Tinubu will today, Wednesday, visit Benue State following the brutal killing of over 200 villagers in the state by suspected herdsmen.
Tinubu recently announced that he would reschedule his appointments to pay a condolence visit to the people of the state on Wednesday, following last Friday’s attack in the Yelewata community that left scores of residents dead.
SOCIETY WATCH reports that many had criticised the president for not visiting the people of the troubled state despite the killing of scores of residents by suspected herdsmen.
He also came under attack after he charged Governor Hyacinth Alia to convene reconciliation meetings and dialogue among the warring parties to end the incessant bloodshed.
SOCIETY WATCH reports that a fresh wave of deadly attacks being carried out by armed herdsmen have spread to parts of Enugu and Abia states, leaving residents gripped with fear and anxiety.
The attacks intensified just a few days after a gruesome massacre in Benue that claimed many lives, including children, women and the elderly.
