Some unidentified gunmen have attacked Agan community, in Makurdi local government area of Benue State on Friday, leaving nine persons dead.
One of the locals, Terkimbi Shom, told newsmen, yesterday, that nobody knew where the attackers came from.
These attacks are becoming too frequent. This is the second time in less than three weeks that the attackers launched attacks on our community. We hardly sleep well nowadays for fear of attacks.
I appeal to the Federal Government to please send security operatives to our area to safeguard our lives as well as our property, he pleaded.
The Benue Police Command’s spokesman, Sewuese Anene, confirmed the attack.
