will visit the blood of people killed by suspected herdsmen on their
killers and sponsors.
Fayose spoke in Makurdi, the Benue State capital during his visit to
commiserate with the State Governor, Samuel Ortom over killings by
suspected herdsmen.
His comment was contained in a statement by his Special Assistant on
Public Communications and New Media Lere Olayinka.
He also declared support for the Benue State Anti-Grazing Law and
urged the people of the State to stand by the law.
The statement sent to DAILY POST, quoted Fayose as saying, "Since the
law is for the Benue people by the Benue government and not for
residents of other States, there should not be any problem about its
enforcement."
The governor enjoined the people of Benue State to be united in
prayers, noting that "whosoever that is in government during the time
of peace, posterity will remember him while those in powers when
innocent people are being killed in the most barbaric manner will not
be forgotten too.
He advised the people of Benue to "change vehicle since the present
vehicle of change has broken own."
Fayose visited the Genabe, Makurdi mass grave where the 73 persons
killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen in Guma and Logo local government
areas of Benue State, were buried. Prayers were offered for the repose
of the souls of the victims by the Ekiti State Deputy Governor, Prof
Kolapo Olusola.
Governor Fayose also visited the former Governor of the State, Gabriel
Suswan in his residence.
