Governor Samuel Ortom has stated that the Benue State Security Council will meet next week to review the security situation in Katsina-Ala and Ukum, following the ban on motorcycles in the area.
The Governor stated this after his attention was drawn to reports of the destruction of impounded motorcycles in Ukum and Katsina-Ala earlier in the week.
Recall that the state government had banned the use of motorcycle in the two local governments to curtain the worsening security situation within the Sankara axis.
It was, however, reported that those who flouted the orders had their motorcycles confiscated and set ablaze by men of the Nigeria army, an act that have rather ignored another bout of controversy.
