 BENUE: GOV. ALIA ANNOUNCES PLANS TO HOLD SECURITY SUMMIT 


12th April, 2025      |      9:04 PM


The Executive Governor of Benue State, Rev Fr Dr Hyacinth Iormem Alia has announced plans to hold Benue State Security Summit in his attempt to end insecurity in the state.


Governor Alia made this known Saturday, April 12, 2025 at Government House Makurdi while interacting with the Advisory team sent by the Chief of Defence Staff to look into the security situation in the state.


He said Benue State has faced increased attacks in recent times with a target on specific local government areas.


"Benue has experienced increased attacks in recent times and those are mostly coming from very specific local governments, and the heat of it all is Kwande, Ukum, Katsina-ala, Logo, and Gwer-West.


"I am aware that Benue State is not the only state that is affected by this but I want you to know that we have suffered quite intensely, and the Benue people in those local government areas have undergone what is beyond imagination."


The Governor added that his administration has held series of important meetings with the office of the Nigerian Security Advisor, adding that a committee was already in place working with the state and private sector to have a Benue State security summit even as he has strengthened the civil protection Guards to help the conventional security Agencies to put an end to the killings and displacement of people in the state.


"As I speak, we have a team that is working in conjunction with the state and private sector on having a Benue security summit 


" We want to hold that first and then I'm already in talks with my colleague Governors in the North Central for us to hold a North Central Security Summit." He added.


Governor Alia who thanked the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa for his efforts in ensuring that peace returns in Benue State, advised the Advisory team to extend their visit to the neighbouring states of Taraba and Nasarawa.


This is a good one to our Governor.
