Franc Utoo, former Principal Special Assistant to former Governor Samuel Ortom, has stated that in 2022, his community of Yelwata in Benue State was attacked by terrorists. In an interview with Atlanta Discuss Channel, he said the military detachment in the area at the time was led by Staff Sergeant Kingsley, who joined forces with local youths to defend the community during the attack.
Utoo said that during the fight, 13 of the terrorists were killed. He stated that, shockingly, three of the 13 attackers killed were identified as serving army officers. He said their ID cards were found in their pockets after they were killed. Utoo said the recovered ID cards were submitted to the 72 Special Forces Battalion in Makurdi
In Utoo’s words: “When these guys came to attack our community, the guy joined together with our youths to repel the attackers. And on that day they killed 13 of these terrorists. And do you know out of these 13 of these terrorists, three of them were serving army officers with their ID cards in their pockets.
