Terrorists Posing As Hersdmen Use Chemical Weapons To Kill In Benue State?

 Governor Gabriel Suswam of Benue State

Benue State Commissioner for Information, Mr Justin Amatse, has disclosed that about 200 people have so far been killed with what is believed to be chemical weapon since the attacks began.
Benue has been under the grip of suspected Fulani herdsmen in recent times. However, state governor Dr. Gabriel Suswam had earlier declared the attackers as terrorists who use herdsmen as smokescreen.
Over 10 persons, including women and children, were found to have died of poisonous substance suspected to be chemical weapon. The victims had no cuts, gunshot wounds nor bruises on their bodies but were found dead after gunmen attacked their village at Sengev community in Gwer West Local Government Area of the state.

The Information Commissioner said the death toll from the poisonous substance suspected to be chemical weapon was 200.

"The use of suspected chemical weapon on our people has been on for few weeks now while the state government is taking measures to manage this, though the frequency is rising by the day.

"Let me tell you that about 200 people with the latest one in Gwer West have been killed with

poisonous substance. When you go through their bodies no cut is seen; neither gun shot or bruise in their body anytime they were faced with these gunmen which shows that they died of suspected chemical weapons."
The state government had directed the ministry of health to carry out autopsy on the victims to ascertain the cause of such death.
