In another report, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue on Sunday, May 23, said he will no longer announce the deaths of those killed by herdsmen in the state.
Ortom, who made the remark at the Chapel of Grace in Government House, Makurdi, to round up a prayer and fasting programme said the people of Benue should rise up and defend themselves with weapons not prohibited by law.
The governor speaking further at the interdenominational church service urged residents to get a licence for dane guns from local government chairmen and use them to defend themselves. He went on to note that as long as he remained within God’s circle no weapon fashioned against him would prosper.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that the Benue government, on Thursday, May 6, approved the establishment of vigilante groups to combat the high rate of insecurity in the state.
Governor Ortom disclosed this when he briefed journalists attached to his office on the outcome of the expanded stakeholders’ meeting held at the new banquet hall of the Government House, Makurdi.
He said renewed attacks on the people by armed herdsmen had overstretched security agencies, stressing that his government had decided to enforce the law to establish vigilante groups.
