Gov. Ortom calls on Security Agencies to Arrest the perpetrators of Modern Market violence

 

Governor Samuel Ortom condemns in strong terms, the incident at Modern Market, Makurdi yesterday when some youths stormed the market to harass traders they identified as Muslims. 

The Governor says no one has a right to prevent others from worshipping where it pleases them. 

He charges security agencies to fish out the culprits and apprehend them for prosecution. 

Governor Ortom further warns the youths to avoid acts capable of creating tension as anyone found fomenting trouble will be brought to justice.
