Some suspected herdsmen have reportedly killed four farmers in a fresh attack on Tse- Dzungwe, Logo Local Government area of Benue State.
The victims have been identified as Terlumun Uke, Samuel Dwem, Draba Dwem, and Apaaga Mlanga.
Tse- Dzungwe, which is located on the banks of River Benue, has been repeatedly attacked by herdsmen with residents just recovering from a recent invasion before the latest onslaught.
Tyovenda Gbumsy, the spokesman for the community, told newsmen that herdsmen moved into the area with hundreds of cattle which destroyed crops.
Tyovenda, who fled to a neighbouring community, continued: “the invasion was reported to soldiers drafted to the state and they chased the herdsmen away.
“Soon afterward, the herdsmen regrouped and launched an attack on our community,” he stated.
