 Alia Launches Probe into Destruction of LG Secretariat, Traditional Palace in Benue


Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has set up a committee to investigate the destruction of the Gwer West Local Government Secretariat, the Ter-Tyoshin palace, and several private properties in Naka town.


During a visit to the affected areas on Thursday, Alia condemned the violence—allegedly triggered by protests over repeated herdsmen attacks—and urged residents to support government efforts to restore peace.


He warned that anyone found colluding with external attackers would face the full weight of the law.


Ter-Tyoshin, Chief Daniel Abomtse, described the attack on his palace as a calculated sabotage, questioning the authenticity of the protest. He praised the governor’s visit and called for the perpetrators to be brought to justice.


Meanwhile, local government staff Christiana Gbagbul and Civil Protection Guard Commander Nyiuma Nicholas accused the military of complicity and called for their redeployment, urging that the police take over internal security in the area.
