Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate Michael Aondoakaa, SAN, condemns the killing of four people in Abaashwa community, Mbaasar, Nzorov Council Ward in Guma Local Government Area, Benue State. In statements issued following the attack, Aondoakaa describes the incident as barbaric and points to the worsening security situation in the state.
Across the reports, Aondoakaa criticises what he characterises as “endless condolences,” saying Benue residents deserve practical security measures rather than repeated expressions of sympathy after attacks. The two outlets both attribute the remarks to a statement made through Aondoakaa’s media aide and both refer to suspected armed herdsmen as the perpetrators.
The reports do not provide additional details on arrests, investigations, or whether authorities have responded beyond the condemnation. Both accounts, however, agree on the location, the number of victims, and Aondoakaa’s call for improved security for residents of Benue.
