 By Martins Lord Williams 

The Senior Special Assistant to the Benue State Governor on Entertainment Mr Nyikwagh Bat Hills yesterday moved in to avert a major face- off between Benue Musicians and the Nigerian Breweries Plc for ill treatment and non-payment of artists and union fees at the ongoing Star Trek holding in Makurdi.

The Musicians under the auspices of Nigerian performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN), Benue Chapter, numbering over 50 stormed the offices of the SSA on Entertainment, carrying placards with various inscriptions demanding the intervention of the State Government to compel Nigerian Breweries to comply with payment of PMAN Union fees as enshrined in their constitution for Star Trek Music jamboree organized by Nigerian Breweries for the promotion of their beer products.

The artists also lamented non-payment of their performing fees as over 25 of them have so far performed at the event without fees.
