Makurdi - The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue State has
raised an alarm over the murder of six of its chieftains in the state,
reports Vanguard.
The
party said the heinous crimes against its members has so as far gone
largely unchecked as security agencies had no tangible evidence of
arrests of perpetrators of the crimes.
Godwin
Ayihe, the Publicity Secretary of the PDP in the state in a statement
on Wednesday, said it is unacceptable to leaders of the PDP that six of
the top party's members have been murdered in cold blood while security
agencies seem to have no answers to the situation.
He called on security agencies and Governor Samuel Ortom to unravel the masterminds of the heinous crimes.
However,
in a swift reaction, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in a statement
by its state Chairman, Abba Yaro, absolved the party from the killings
and blamed internal wrangling in the PDP for the development.
