BREAKING: Three Killed As Thugs Disrupt Election, Snatch BVAS In Benue

Three have been killed as thugs disrupt election and snatch BVAS in Benue.

Glamtush reports that at least three persons suspected to be political thugs have been killed in Gboko Local Government Area of Benue State.

It was gathered that the thugs invaded the polling units 026 and 004, Gboko South while electoral processes were ongoing and attempted to snatch ballot boxes and the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System (BVAS).

An eye-witness, Moses Agure-Dam who confirmed the development to DAILY POST, said the thugs were gunned down by military officers.

He said, “The thugs invaded the polling units and disrupted the election. They were three in number, one snatched the BVAS while others snatched ballot boxes but they didn’t succeed.

“They were all shot dead instantly by the soldiers in the area”.

Efforts to reach the Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Catherine Anene proved abortive as her number was unreachable.
