There is widespread public outrage and mounting tension in Benue state as no fewer than 42 persons were Thursday reportedly killed by suspected armed herdsmen in Katsina-Ala and Gwer West Local Government Areas, LGAs of Benue state.
Findings indicated that 36 of the victims whose corpses have been recovered were killed in Katsina-Ala while six others were murdered Gwer West LGA.
The attack which left several persons injured and some also missing is coming on the heels of a similar attack which claimed over 100 lives in four Council Wards of the same Katsina-Ala LGA last week.
