dIt was a bloody yuletide celebration at Lessel town, in local government area of Benue State, where a clash between the police and irate youths led to the shooting of five youths with one confirmed dead while four others are said be in critical condition at a public hospital.
This is just as a suspected rival cult clash in Agbouhogh village, in the outskirt of Makurdi town left no fewer than 15 persons with serious injuries.
Though the reason for the bloody clash was not yet clear at the time of this report, the injured and some of the suspects were reported to have been apprehended and taken to the ‘D Division’ of the Makurdi Area Command of the police from where some of them were taken for medical attention.
Meantime, Sunday Vanguard gathered from an eyewitness that the yuletide mayhem at Lessel started at about noon when over 2,000 youths from across Ushongo converged for a procession to the popular Ushongo Hills for their annual Christmas picnic.
“They were prevented from moving into the hills by the Police who were allegedly directed by the District Head of Mbayegh, Chief Nathaniel Hoyough, to prevent the picnic from taking place in his domain where the hill is located,”the eye witness said.
