The Federal government has drafted special security forces to Benue State to tackle the terrorists and halt the spate of killings and other forms of violence across the local governments in the state

The combined security team is made up of intelligence agencies, the police and the military. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu mandated them to take control of the security operations.

Their deployment followed a fresh directive by the President to the security chiefs to implement without delay his earlier instructions that lasting peace should be restored to the troubled Northcentral state.

President Tinubu also implored Benue political leaders to close ranks and cooperate with security agencies in their bid to put an end to the tension.

“The latest news of wanton killings in Benue State is very depressing. We must not allow this bloodletting to continue unabated. Enough is now enough.

This is the time for Governor Alia to act as a statesman and immediately lead the process of dialogue and reconciliation that will bring peace to Benue.

Our people must live in peace, and it is possible when leaders across the divides work together in harmony and differences are identified and addressed with fairness, openness and justice,” the President said in a statement by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
