Nigerians Condemn Sultan’s Threats, Say Terrorists, Not Benue, Are to Blame

Social media users have criticized threats from the Sultan and Fulani leaders against the people of Benue state. They insist that armed terrorists, not local communities, carried out the killing of the traditional ruler. Commenters are urging the federal government and security agencies to focus on genuine militant networks rather than fuel inter-ethnic tension. Many Nigerians warn that blaming entire communities risks deepening divisions and worsening the security crisis. The debate gained momentum after the slain leader’s death was immediately attributed to residents of Benue. Netizens emphasize the need for thorough investigation and unity across ethnic lines.
