The President of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has today, at the commissioning of the the Greater Abuja Water Supply Network, Loops 1, 2, 5 & 6 of the Federal Capital City, FCC, announced his plans to visit Benue on Wednesday following the continued killing of some residents by suspected Fulani pastoralists.
He said, “While I sympathise with the Benue people, I have spoken to the governor, the leadership and people of Benue to accept our condolences and try hard, very consciously, to maintain peace and harmony among themselves.
“I have always said we are one single, huge family living in the same house, say in different rooms but living together in harmony which should be the result of our diversity for prosperity. We should be able to manage our anger and frustrations.
“I will adjust my programme and go see Benue people on Wednesday.”
