Traditional ruler of Yelwata community in Benue State, HRH Kumaga Jor, has backed moves by United States President, Donald Trump, to end alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria.
DAILY POST reports that about 200 persons were massacred when suspected Fulani gunmen invaded Yelwata in June 2025.
Jor welcomed Trump’s ‘US military action threat’ while speaking with journalists in Makurdi on Thursday.
He concurred with Trump that there is ongoing killing of Christians in Nigeria.
According to him, “the attack on his domain as well as other attacks in Benue State were carried out by Muslim terrorists”.
Jor appreciated the US President for coming to the aid of Christians in Nigeria and urged him to expedite action.
According to him, “the situation remains dire as killings go on almost daily with many villages sacked and occupied by the terrorists”.
He expressed sadness that original inhabitants are now taking refuge in Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, camps across Benue State.
