Reacting, the lawmaker wonders what becomes of people of the state.

In a statement signed by his Special Assistant, Emmanuel Eche-Ofun John, Moro said: “If the Governor, the Chief Security Officer of the State, is not safe and can be attacked by criminals in broad daylight, what then becomes the fate of the defenceless and unarmed citizens in their villages and on their farms.”

Moro also appealed to security agents to ensure the protection of lives and properties of Benue people.
