Tragedy struck Yelewata on Friday night as suspected armed herdsmen launched a deadly attack around 10:00 pm, leaving several people dead and many others injured.

According to early reports received around 4:00 am Saturday, at least 16 individuals sustained varying degrees of injuries in the assault.

The exact number of fatalities is yet to be confirmed, as authorities continue to gather information from the scene.

In response to a distress call, operatives of the Nigerian Army and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) moved to the area. Still, they were ambushed in Daudu while en route.

The ambush resulted in the tragic death of two soldiers and one Civil Defence officer.

“These brave men paid the ultimate price in service to our people. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten,” a community source stated, mourning the fallen security operatives.

Survivors of the attack are currently receiving treatment at the Benue State University Teaching Hospital (BSUTH) in Makurdi. Medical personnel have made an urgent appeal for blood donations to save the lives of the injured.

Citizens and humanitarian organisations have been urged to provide immediate support to the victims, especially through blood donations and medical assistance.

“My heartfelt condolences go to the families of the victims, especially our fallen heroes in uniform,” said a concerned resident, who also refrained from sharing graphic images from the scene out of respect for the victims and community standards.
