The governor of Benue State, Hyacinth Alia has accused Abuja-based politicians of instigating some of the attacks and killings in the state.
Alia while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today said politicians and lawmakers in the National Assembly are sponsoring the deadly attacks in Benue.
Describing the gruesome killings of many and maiming of Benue residents as unacceptable, Alia said his claims are backed up by recent findings by a judicial panel set up by the state.
While the governor did not mention the names of the politicians sponsoring these attacks, he said that the interim report from the panel indicted several top Abuja politicians.
He also assured that his administration will address the matter squarely once he receives the full report by next week.
“We set up a judicial panel to sort out for us why we kept having attacks from within and from without and we have received an interim report.
“Between Tuesday and Wednesday next week, I am going to get a full report from the panel,” Governor Alia said.
Speaking further, Governor Alia also stated that the killings in the state can no longer be likened to farmer-herder conflict anymore.
He said these politicians specialise in harbouring the killers and take care of their basic needs and bills while putting the lives of innocent Benue residents on the line.
“It is very unsettling because some politicians who are very functional and are in the National Assembly and are in Abuja are the architects and arrowheads of not just instigating but harbouring and keeping these people, keeping them in the bushes and taking care of all their bills and buying all the gadgets for them.
“This is extremely unacceptable. If they do not like the lives of the people and are fighting for their own political position, I think I am serving the interest of the common masses and it is my right to protect them,” he added.
