Benue youths in their thousands have matched round major streets of Makurdi to protest against the move to militarise the state in the coming Governorship and State Assembly elections.
The youths carried placards, some of which read “we say no to the militarization of Benue”, where was the military when our people were butchered by armed herdsmen”, “don’t use the military to rig Benue elections”, APC doesn’t drag the military into politics”.
The founding member of the Movement Against Fulani Occupation, MAFO, Pastor Dave Ogbole who spoke on behalf of the youths said that they were aware of the plot to send top military personnel for the coming Saturday election.
