Special FEC Meeting For Buhari Postponed Over Funeral Clash

Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia, has announced on Thursday that his state is experiencing relative peace, enabling farmers to return to previously abandoned farms due to farmers/herders clashes.

He made this statement while briefing State House correspondents after meeting with President Bola Tinubu.

Alia visited the President to update him on Benue’s state of affairs, highlighting the high levels of peace during the current farming season.

“Since 1999, our people have paid less attention to farming, but since last year, and particularly this season, they have returned to the farms.

“We need to produce more and fill our basket to capacity.”

He said that Benue had made significant security strides, with minor skirmishes persisting in two to three local governments.

Alia emphasised the need for attention in these areas to eradicate all skirmishes.

Regarding the federal government’s flood warning, Alia said his administration had implemented measures to prevent flooding.

“We are prepared to tackle flooding, having carried out adequate sensitisation for riverbank residents.

“We seek the Federal Government’s assistance to dredge the River Benue.

According to the governor, the Benue State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) is equipped to handle flood-related challenges.

“We are prepared, not just waiting. We have SEMA, an emergency management team, and they are armed to respond.”

The governor noted that in spite of warnings, some residents refused to evacuate flood-prone areas.

“However, the government will persist in appealing to them, simultaneously highlighting the risks associated with staying in these vulnerable locations,” he said. (NAN)
