The Nation Newspaper Alia, Benue will overcome insecurity, Onjeh assures
) senatorial candidate for Benue South Comrade Daniel Onjeh, has decried the recent surge in deadly attacks on innocent Benue residents.
Onjeh lamented that some politicians and public office holders have abdicated their responsibility of serving their people, and made the use of violence to serve and advance their political interests their sole preoccupation. He noted that the recent spike in violence in Benue State has a clear political undertone, stating, “the recent spike in violence in Benue State has some heinous political colouration.
According to him: “The Governor is focused on development, while some politicians are focusing on 2027. This is why they are doing everything they can to destabilize and discredit his performing administration and derail him from his focus.”While Onjeh condoles those who lost loved ones or their property to what he termed “the recent politically-orchestrated violence”, he called on Benue people not to give up hope but to have faith in Alia’s administration.
Onjeh urged citizens of Benue State to come forward with useful information about the whereabouts of criminal elements and their hideouts to help the security agencies flush them out of their lands. He stated that some unscrupulous politicians use these criminals to terrorize the citizens.
