President Bola Tinubu wants a new Committee of Elders for Benue State to have all former governors and current Nasarawa State Governor Abdullwhile Sule. Sunday Dare, who advises the president on media matters, shared this news on his X account Wednesday. Dare traveled with the presidential team that visited areas hit by recent killings. The president told Benue Governor Hyacinth Alia to work with everyone and act like a father to all people regardless of their politics or background. Tinubu asked Benue residents to join together and help the government find lasting answers to the crisis.

The deadly attack at Yelewata village killed more than 200 people and hurt many others. Hundreds of families had to leave their homes. Tinubu stressed that traditional rulers must work closely with state officials to keep peace. He ordered Governor Alia to find land for cattle ranching to tackle one main reason for the fighting. The expanded Committee of Elders will give advice and help settle disputes during peace talks.
