Benue State Governor, Rev Fr Hyacinth Alia on Thursday night said his administration would soon set up a panel to investigate the recent killings and violence in the state.
The governor also said his government had ordered full military intervention to tackle the security crisis in the state’s troubled Ukum Local Government Area.
Recall that the state government had earlier declared a curfew in the affected local government following violent protests which led to the destruction of personal and government properties.
The protest was triggered by the killing of some people in Ayati village.
But addressing the people during a broadcast on Thursday night, Governor Alia said that his administration was intensifying efforts to collaborate with the security agencies to bring the perpetrators to justice.
Alia said the commission of enquiry would be mandated to investigate the remote and immediate causes of the mayhem.
