Mr Tinubu ordered the security agents to hunt criminals terrorising Benue State
“The number of people who were casualties of the war is not in millions. The other side also refused all attempts to send aid into their camp,” Mr Gowon claimed.
“My deepest apologies for the incorrect or confusing guidance. I recognise the importance of clear and accurate communication,” said Mr Alia’s aide.
What Mr Adefarasin brandished was a stun gun, prohibited anti-riot equipment, the police said, hours after grilling the pastor.
Mr Tinubu pledged his administration’s commitment to ensuring that INEC was fully equipped to carry out its constitutional mandate.
The President’s visit is coming amid global outrage over killings in Benue State by lethal gunmen.
The police noted that no one was above the law.
Mr Alia said, “Each time I speak about this, I get very passionate about it.’’
Mr Tinubu is seeking reelection in 2027 and will likely rely on his unusual ally, the former Rivers governor, for another electoral success.
“I thank him (Mr Tinubu) even as I make further request that similar gesture should be extended to Niger state,” said Mr Obi.
