No fewer than five persons have been reportedly killed within two days in Logo Local Government Area of Benue State by suspected herdsmen.

It was gathered that the attackers, who have taken over large expanse of forests in Logo, usually mount road blocks in the area before killing their unsuspecting victims, retreat and disappear into the forests.

No fewer than five persons have been reportedly killed within two days in Logo Local Government Area of Benue State by suspected herdsmen.

Confirming the attacks, the Chairman of Logo Local Government council, Mr. Richard Nyajo, said: “The killings in Logo have become a daily affair.

“Last Tuesday, two brothers, Cyprian Tsebo and Jonathan Tsebo both from Mobile barracks – Tombo ward, were ambushed and killed by the militant herdsmen.

“It was followed by the gruesome murder of Luper Abeva at Tse Audu Amo-Tombo ward and Iortumbur Atov at Tse Akombo, Mbaniange Mbagber ward, who was murdered at Barracks.

Reacting, the Benue State Police Commissioner, Fatai Owoseni, said the command was working hard to end such attacks, stressing that, “There is no way you can completely eradicate criminality in the society.

“Where you have isolated cases like that, it could be normal crime. In fact, there are so many dimensions to what is happening in that axis of the state. “But like the chairman said, we are certainly not sleeping; that is why peace has gradually returned to that area.”

“Nigerian pharmacist in Chicago shot his Cameroonian wife, their eight-year-old daughter and committed suicide. They are survived by their 13-year-old son and four-year-old daughter.

“This happened yesterday (Sunday) morning in Chicago. The eight-year-old died in the arms of the 13-year-old, who heard gunshots and went to call his mom that he had heard gunshots outside, not knowing that their dad had shot their mom.

“He saw his sister in a pool of blood, carried her to seek help only for her to die in his arms; horrible story. The wife’s parents are from Guzang – Mr and Mrs Mudoh. Good friends of mine,” he wrote.

A neighbour of the couple, Suzanne McCray, said her child and Olivia were classmates.

“This is so sad; I saw at least one of them every evening picking up their daughter from after-school the same time as I.
