Shocking Revelation: Abuja Politicians Backing Terror In Benue – Gov Alia

Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia, has leveled serious accusations against some high-ranking politicians in Abuja and the National Assembly, claiming they are behind the violence and killings plaguing the state. He alleged that these politicians are not only instigating the crisis but also harbouring, funding, and supplying those responsible for the attacks.

Governor Alia made this explosive claim during Channels Television’s Politics Today program on Friday, describing the situation as deeply disturbing and completely unacceptable.

He expressed dismay that while these political figures appear more focused on protecting their personal positions, he remains committed to defending the lives and interests of the people of Benue.

Although he refrained from naming those involved, Alia revealed that a judicial panel of inquiry had been established to investigate the root causes of the attacks. He noted that the interim report already implicates several prominent individuals, and he intends to act decisively once the full report is presented in the coming days.

“It’s truly alarming,” the Governor said. “Some influential politicians, currently active in the National Assembly and based in Abuja, are not just inciting violence — they’re also hiding and supporting the attackers in the forests, catering to their needs and supplying them with equipment.

“This is absolutely intolerable. If these individuals care little for the lives of ordinary citizens and are only concerned about their power, I will not stand by. I am obligated to protect the people, and that’s what I’ll do.

“The judicial panel has done great work, and I’ll receive the final report between Tuesday and Wednesday. A number of prominent names have already been identified, and we are fully prepared to take this matter up with the seriousness it deserves.”
