 And as the attack on villages and farmers increase in Benio State, the all-progressive Congress, the APC in Benio State, has accused the governor, Samuel Utham-led government, of being responsible for the killing of innocent Benio citizens by Hertzman militia across the state. Chairman of the party, Austin Agada, made a legation while condemning the renewed killings in the state at press conference in Makaldi. Correspondent Francis Teh reports the party chairman in the state alongside party leaders and critical stakeholders alleged that this livestock guards acting on destruction of the governor have engaged in rustling cows belonging to the full-on new herders, thereby frustrating them which led to a reprisal attack on innocent Benio citizens. The increased waves of killing of innocent citizens of Benio State, especially the people of the Ihariv Nation or a structure and appeal to both Governor Samuel Utham and the full-on new militias to trade the part of peace and refrain from all activities that have led to the escalation of these cuts and breaches of the affirmation local government areas. This appeal has become necessary in the light of the renewed rustling of cows by the governor or termed life-score guards and the community volunteer guard under the disguise of enforcing the open-grazing prohibition law on the other hand and the full-on new militias counter-attack against our innocent people who have no link with neither rustling of the cows or so-called the enforcement of the law. It must be emphasized that the implementation of the open-grazing prohibition law weak-target cows instead of the full-on new who are shepherd the cows live much to be desired. It is therefore our contention that Governor Utham should immediately review the mood of under any circumstance that cows are to be arrested then Governor Utham's life-score guards should provide a war of defense for the innocent helpless villagers who are attacked shortly after the arrest of flying cows that is our position. Reacting to the allegations, Governor Samuel Utham said the enactment of open-grazing prohibition law was a decision of the people of the state and was unaware why the APC will accuse him of the herdsmen killings. The trans-communist council, the stakeholders are here, they gently told me I didn't sit on my own and enacted any law and it went through due process to the state executive council to the House of Assembly and the House of Assembly went and did public hearings in four designated places instead of three and we came out with a law I signed and we had to enforce it everything we are doing I'm a man that believes in the rule of law, I'm not a lawless person. Some people who are on the air making press conferences who have run away from their people, they cannot even go to their villages and we've been working hard here the security agencies have been working themselves security agencies 2017 over 130 security personnel soldiers, police, civil defence, DSS have been killed in Benway State in the course of the keeping peace for us and these people have run away they are drinking cold water and beer in Makudin, they don't even go to their villages and you go and make reckless statements that we incite people. In a soft reaction the special advisor to government media, Mr. Samuel Kasse, said the open grazing prohibition and ranches establishment law and the livestock guards which the APC and the herder allies desperately want to see scrapped have come to stay. In Benway State is concerned the lives of cows are more valuable than human lives. This is why in the third press conference yesterday there are emphasis for some council as they try to justify why the Benway State open grazing prohibition and ranches establishment law should be reviewed to crack easy passage and access to fuller the herders with their animals to lands across the state. The APC's line of reasoning resonates with the thinking of fuller the pastoralists such as Miyeti Hala who insist that until the law is repealed they will not stop sponsoring attacks on the state. The APC in Benway State has again proven that it has no value for human lives and as long as they get the power Benway can go out inflamed a political party that turns to accuse the people of the state which hope to govern last humanity and the conscience to lead.
