Just when Benue farmers were enjoying some respite from the activities of dare-devil Fulani herdsmen in some parts of the state, no fewer than 12 persons were late Friday night reportedly killed by suspect herdsmen at Tarfi village, Binnev Ward, in Buruku local government area. Sunday Vanguard learned that the attack also left so many villagers with varying degrees of injuries while several others were still reported missing and uned for.

According to a source, the armed men stormed the village in their numbers from neighbouring Tarka Local Government at about 11pm, shooting sporadically and burning down houses and huts in the community.

He said, “there is no doubt that it is this same group of herdsmen that have been terrorizing Tarka and Buruku Local Government Areas in recent times that are responsible for this attack.

“This time they stormed Tarfi village, Binnev Ward, in Buruku late last night at about 11pm, in a commando fashion shooting and killing anything that stood in their way.

“It was a well coordinated attack. They marched through the village burning down houses and huts, farmland, food barn and any property that belonged to the indigenous people.

“At the moment, the calls we received from home indicated that about 12 persons were killed while many sustained serious injuries and many others still missing and uned for. “As I’m speaking with you, the locals, including women, children and the elderly, have all fled their homes, trekking long distances to seek a safe place to hide, while the intruders have gone into hiding though their cows are still grazing in the village.

When ed, the Benue Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Assistant Superintendent, ASP, Moses Yamu, who confirmed the attack, said the Police recorded five deaths in the incident adding that the Command was on top of the situation. Yamu said, “yes I can confirm the attack on Tarfi village, Binnev Ward, in Buruku Local Government Area of the state by suspected Fulani herdsmen; so far we have record five deaths, two persons were killed in the village but three others who sustained injuries in the attack died on their way to the hospital.”

Well some nairalanders from this area will still come here worshiping Buhari, defending his ignorance and protecting " fulani" terrorist/herdsman, while his kinsman are slaughtered and molested by the hundreds.

They will some how blame Easterners, even though they suffered the same fate. They will never say one bad word about the perpetrators, killers and terrorist or the government protecting them...
RIP to the murdered...

Thank God I felt pressed at time...

All thanks yet again to vanguard for giving the iPod Yoots another wonderful news to celebrate. Watch how they invade this thread and dance their macabre dance all over the place at the break of dawn. The pomp would be out of this world as usual.

When a bomb goes off, when herdsmen kill, and when NDA strikes, they get instant erection and can't help wanking off till eternity.

Hope the people responsible for this are brought to justice and lasting peace return to the people of Buruku.

Fulani kill your brothers and sisters, first thing you do is to mock those alive before getting back to sympathise with your dead brothers.
Pathetic!

I didn't say it's bad typing by 4am on Nairaland, but mocking Ipad Yoots on what doesn't have anything to do with them before sympathising with your brothers is what is wrong by 4am.

Since FG said herdsmen are from Libya, there have been confusion regarding the origin of Niger Delta Avengers. Some think they're from Zimbabwe and some say they're from Morocco.


Fellow nairalanders, let's just put an end to this argument
If you believe Avengers are from United Nations or any other country click like, if you think they're Nigerians, click share

In another news, N940 million has been inserted into the budget for grazing reserves to help forestall herdsmen issue. They are pampered while on killing rampage while 5% peeps don't even have freedom of speech in their lands. Any agitation for biafra or niger delta republic must be crushed! I won't be surprised if buhari doesn't last his tenure or have Nigeria in one piece at the end of this tenure. Funny thing, N940 M is derived from the 5%.

The fulani carnage and disregard for life continues, while our C in C claims this herds men are from Libya, worst of all some of our resident APC e - warrior even decided to jump to the defense of this blood sucking monsters...

I don't know how some APC ers blindly. When something is wrong, we should all collectively say that it is wrong. Even in patriotism, wrong should be said is wrong. It shows the level of education we have in this country.

This is one attack too many. These herdsmen have really become law unto themselves.
Well...the president has done a "decent" job investigating who the herdsmen are--they are men from Libya.
We all have to wait for peace to return to Libya to see the backs of the herdsmen.
Somebody really needs to tell the President that a C-in-C does not kid with the security of his citizens.
