President Muhammadu Buhari will today meet with Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom and other stakeholders from the state – in a bid to resolve the crisis sparked by the herdsmen killings.
No fewer than 73 victims of the herdsmen’s actions were buried at the weekend. Over 60,000 displaced persons are in five camps.
About 60 injured people were on admission at the Benue State Teaching Hospital in Makurdi. Some of them have been discharged.
A victim with a broken skull has been taken to Primus Hospital in Abuja for referral service.
The state government has released more than N100million to take care of the victims and the displaced.
