GOV ALIA WARNS AGAINST SELF-DEFENCE, SAYS COMMUNITY POLICING BETTER

Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has called for community policing as a solution to the insecurity crisis currently rocking the state.
Alia made the call while cautioning against affected communities resorting self defence.
Lately, Benue State had come under heavy attacks by armed herders, killing over 300 people.
Alia has accused armed herders of the killings in Yelewata area of the state.
However, the governor warned that self-defence would make the communities vulnerable to more attacks.
The governor disclosed this in a chat with newsmen on Tuesday.
