“Blood in Benue”: 150 Killed in Midnight Horror — Where Is Nigeria’s Conscience??
Benue is bleeding and the nation can’t keep silent.
In a heart-wrenching midnight massacre, suspected armed herdsmen stormed the peaceful village of Yelewata, Benue State, leaving behind ashes, tears, and more than 150 dead bodies, including children who had nowhere to run.
They came under the cover of darkness. In minutes, homes were set on fire. A local market, where many families had taken refuge, turned into a death trap. Entire households were wiped out. Survivors say the gunmen moved “like demons” shooting, burning, destroying.
> “They didn’t spare even toddlers. We begged. We ran. But death was faster,” a survivor whispered, still covered in ash and blood.
This isn’t a movie. This is Nigeria today.
Not Just an Attack—A Slaughter
This is one of the deadliest attacks in Nigeria this year, and yet again, Benue is left asking: Where is the protection? Where is the justice? President Tinubu has condemned the killings and promised to visit but the people have heard it all before.
> “We don’t need condolences—we need safety,” cried a community elder.
“Our lands are soaked in blood, and Abuja is giving speeches.”
Thousands Displaced. Help Still Far.
With houses burnt, crops destroyed, and hundreds displaced, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has moved in—but it’s not enough. Survivors are sleeping in the open, mourning with empty stomachs and shattered hope.
Why This Story Must Not Die
This is bigger than Benue. This is a mirror of the growing insecurity tearing Nigeria apart.
If this could happen to them—it could happen to any of us.
