Traditional head of the Gwer West people of Benue State, Ter Nagi,
Ayua Abomtse, has blamed the government of Nasarawa State over the
spate of killings in parts of Tiv land by suspected herdsmen and
called on the federal government to call Governor Tanko Al-Makura to
order.
He alleged that the governor and authorities of Nasarawa State were
aiding the suspected attackers to carry out mayhem in Tivland by
allowing them use their domain as passage route.
“The Nasarawa government is consciously allowing this to happen,” he said.
Chief Abomtse, who said nothing concrete has come out of the several
peace committees set up by both states in the past, accused
Al-makura of insincerity in ending the crisis.
