Madam Mbanengen Lase was allegedly killed in her farm by Fulani herdsmen
Some suspected Fulani herdsmen have reportedly killed a mother of seven identified as Madam Mbanengen Lase, in her farm. The sad incident took place at Adam settlement of Kendev-ya, TURAN, Kwande local government area.
According to Apiah Ephraims, one other lady involved in the incident is yet to be found. This incident occurred seven days after the governor, Samuel Ortom restored security to Jato Aka. Also, a man identified as Officer Ikyanyon, commander, Vigilante Group in Nzaav was also murdered too.
Ephraims added: “On a daily basis, defenseless and law abiding taxpayer’s of Turan in Kwande local government area are killed by Fulani militia. These killings are too numerous to list here.
“But some captured to buttress the point and call for immediate deployment of security personals could not escape the lens of my camera.
“Governor Samuel Ortom’s directive that security be deployed to the flashpoints of the attacks still disobeyed by Col. Jando Edwin, the security adviser.
“Benue people, Tiv people, Idoma people, Igede people, Etulo people, help us beg Col. Jando to do the needful as a desperate situation demands a desperate remedy.”
