“We cannot allow violence to continue to steal lives and destroy our communities. The Federal Government stands with the people of Benue,” Tinubu said.
The President’s message was delivered by National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu, who met with state leaders and victims’ families in Makurdi. He reaffirmed Tinubu’s commitment to strengthening security operations and ensuring that those behind the attacks are brought to justice.
According to voice of the people (voptv) Tinubu ordered immediate security reinforcements across vulnerable parts of the state and directed top security chiefs to review current strategies. He also emphasized the need for stronger federal-state collaboration and urged community leaders to support peacebuilding efforts.
This marks the President’s most direct engagement with the Benue crisis since assuming office, following criticism over delays in addressing the escalating violence in the North-Central region.
