 UNACCEPTABLE – GOV. ALIA BLASTS MBALOM KILLINGS, ASSURES JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS 


Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has condemned the latest attack on Mbalom community in Gwer East Local Government Area, describing it as barbaric and unacceptable, while assuring residents of intensified efforts to protect lives and property.


In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Tersoo Kula, the governor reacted to reports of an assault by suspected armed herdsmen on the community, an incident that adds to recurring security concerns in parts of the state.


Alia said the attack represents a direct threat to the peace and security of Benue, noting a disturbing pattern of what he described as calculated and selective assaults.


He expressed sympathy to affected families and reiterated his administration’s resolve to confront criminal elements.


The governor also commended the Nigeria Police Force and other security agencies for their swift response, adding that operatives are already pursuing the attackers with a view to ensuring their arrest and prosecution.

He urged security agencies to intensify operations to prevent further attacks.


Alia said the government “will not relent or leave anything to chance” in safeguarding communities.

He added that measures are being strengthened to improve intelligence gathering and security collaboration.


Residents were urged to remain calm, vigilant, and support authorities with credible information as efforts continue to restore peace.
