Armed Herdsmen

Two passenger vehicles traveling from Benue State narrowly escaped a deadly ambush by suspected armed herdsmen in the early hours of Sunday, July 6, 2025, while en route to Jigawa State.

According to one of the survivors, Miss Eunice Umbur Ikide – popularly known on Facebook as Umbur Gever – the attackers struck suddenly, but the quick thinking and swift response of the drivers saved all passengers from what could have been a mass killing.

Taking to her Facebook page shortly after the incident, Umbur wrote: “Two vehicles from Benue were attacked by Fulani men early hours of today on our way to Jigawa State, one Flight bus and another bus, the one in the picture.

“But God so kind and our drivers so smart, we escaped. Guys, we need your prayers. We, the Benue people, are no longer safe in Nigeria. I, Eunice Umbur Ikide, myself, am one of the victims… God have mercy on us.”
