Herdsmen Attacks: Ortom Seeks Approval For Firearms For Volunteer Guards In A Letter To Buhari

Governor Samuel Ortom has written President Muhammadu Buhari for firearm licensing for the newly established Benue State Community Volunteer Guards inaugurated last week to provide surveillance and intelligence gathering in the wake of persistent herdsmen attacks.

Ortom who disclosed this on Monday while playing host to a delegation from the Northern Christian Women Coalition at the Government House in Makurdi, says the move became necessary following the legitimated process of establishing the Guards to help restore peace in the troubled parts of the state. كيفية ربح المال من الالعاب

He said the President he knows would approve his request to also empower his people against their transducers or at best, leave room for a fair level of response on the defences of his people. اسرار لعبة البوكر

During the launch last week, the guards, the Governor said, are designed to address community security and safety.

According to him, the volunteer guards were not established for political purposes ahead of the 2023 general elections. العاب على النت

The Governor urged men of the volunteer guards to avoid the temptation of abusing the powers conferred on them by the state’s law.
