The Tiv Youth group in the state in a statement issued by its President, Comrade Isaiah Audu condemned in strong terms the brazen abduction of twenty four year old armless Miss Favour Akaaza from her residence and matcheted by some suspected armed Fulani men leading to her death in her prime.
Describing the act as barbaric, inhuman, heartbreaking and a direct assault on the peace and security of communities in the state, the Tiv youth President advocated swift and transparent prosecution of the two Fulani youths who are in custody and have already confessed to the crime.

According to Comrade Isaiah, the Tiv Youth Organization is committed to promoting peace, justice and the protection of lives and property across the State, appealing to government and security agencies to intensify efforts towards curbing rising cases of armed violence and protecting innocent citizens from further attacks.
