Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has said that some herdsmen shot at him last week.
Although he did not give details of what day and what hour, he said this happened when he was on his arm.
He told journalists during a session in Makurdi:
“Just last week I was on my farm that is situated on the outskirts of Makurdi town when armed herdsmen came there and shot at me. They also shot at the vehicle of our Livestock Guards who came there and shattered it. We had to call the joint military security team, Operation Whirl Stroke, OPWS, who came and saved the situation” Ortom said
