The Executive Chairman of Ado Local Government Area of Benue State, Hon. James Oche, has commiserated with the Clan Head of Ikpomilokpo Clan of Ogege Ward of the council, Chief Michael Oche, over the attack on his palace.

IDOMA VOICE gathered that the Palace of the Clan Head of Ikpomilokpo Clan was attacked by hoodlums in the early hours of Monday, leading to the death of his son, Mr. Thompson Oche and the abduction of his daughter, Rose Oche.

The Chairman in a statement he personally signed on Wednesday described the unfortunate incident as “most unconscionable, inhuman and barbaric act”.

Hon. Oche while condemning the attack, reassured the people of his undeterred commitment of his administration in partnership with security agencies to bring the perpetrators of the dastardly act to book and to restore the sanity of the area.

“I make bold to inform you that, the Local Government Council is working assiduously with the security agencies, the state government and relevant stakeholders to ensure the safe release and return of the abducted Rose Oche within limited time,” the statement partly read.

“I urge you all to remain law abiding, calm and to cooperate with us and the security agencies through volunteering of useful information that will better advance the efforts we are putting in to arrest and bring the perpetrators to answer the call of Justice,” it added.
