Soldiers protecting herdsmen killing us – Benue youths cry out
Some youths of Apa, Benue State have raised an alarm that operatives of the Nigerian Army posted to the area are protecting the killer herdsmen ravaging the local government.
Recall that suspected herdsmen recently murdered no few than 100 people in Apa local government area, including traditional chiefs.
The attack prompted a mass protest by youths of the area who blocked the Oweto-Loko/Abuja expressway.
A youth leader in the area, Ahmed Ocheje who spoke to journalists called on the Commandants of the NASME Barracks and 72nd Special Forces Battalion Makurdi to tell Nigerians what they sent their men to do in Apa.
