Herdsmen attack Samuel Ortom's village, the former governor of Benue.

Following an attack by suspected armed Fulani herdsmen in the Adeor settlement, Ndzorov Council Ward, Guma Local Government Area of Benue State, two farmers, Nensha Adeor and Kator Gbenge, have sustained serious injuries. 


The attack occurred in the hometown of former Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom. The victims tried to stop the herders from allowing their cattle to graze on and destroy their farmland, according to local sources. 

The herdsmen, reportedly armed with machetes, launched a violent assault, leaving both men with deep cuts. The victims are said to be in critical condition by medical personnel at the General Hospital in Gbajimba. 

At the time this report was filed, neither a contact nor a ransom demand had been made. Residents of the community have raised the alarm, calling on security agencies and the state government to intervene urgently and strengthen security in Ndzorov.
