In a protest by civil society groups against the invasion of the state, leader of the protesters, Pastor Dave Ogbole said the Federal Government had failed to provide security for lives and property and called for a full fledge military operation to flush out insurgents out of Benue.Pastors Fred Ikyaan of NKST High Level, Mike Angou, PFN Chairman Benue State, Christopher Adeyi of Zion Methodist Church High Level Makurdi and Moses Ugoo, all prayed God to cause confusion in the camps of the invaders and bring permanent peace in Benue.More photos below.
