“The Tiv Professional Women Initiative (TIPWIN), has received with rude shock, the gruesome murder of a great son of a Tiv, Chief Dr. Terkura Suswam, the older brother to Distinguished Senator Gabriel Suswam.
“We have observed that the murder of Dr Terkura Suswam, is yet another murder that adds to the numerous killings across the Tivland, especially in the Sankera axis, which do not only desecrate the land but portray our people in a bad light.
“We as mothers, join other well-meaning Nigerians, to condemn in the strongest of terms, this barbaric act and call on the Benue State government to ensure that the killers are brought to book.
“We also call on the Tiv Traditional Council, to convene “IJIRTAMEN”, to bring the spate of heinous killings in Tiv land, to a stop”, they stated.
