Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) George Akume condemns the killing of Alhaji Ardo Risku, the Benue State chairman of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), and his associate. In statements reported by Nigerian outlets, Akume describes the attack as disturbing and unacceptable, and says the perpetrators will not escape justice. The SGF’s stance is conveyed through a statement issued by his Special Adviser, according to one report. Another outlet reports that Akume vows that those behind the killings will be apprehended and brought to court.
Both sources agree on the core facts: Akume publicly reacts to the incident, calls for accountability, and indicates that law enforcement action will follow to identify and arrest those responsible. The reports do not provide additional details on the circumstances of the attack or on any arrests at the time of publication.
