It has been reported that there is an ongoing crisis around the Airport Village(between Seraph Oil Mills and Airport Market – opposite Nigerian Airforce Tactical Air Command) and environs, in Makurdi, Benue State.
Reports have it that an argument between traders in the market culminated into a fight where ethnic sentiments came into play. Reportedly, some persons have sustained varying degrees of life threatening injuries while properties have been destroyed.
Residents have been reported to have fled to a catholic church by the first Nigerian Air Force Checkpoint, near Ugbechi Filling Station, along Gboko road.There is no security presence in the area even as of the time of submitting this report.  

This is therefore, a call on the concerned authorities to act now to arrest the situation. If it is this tensed in the daytime, who knows what the situation might turn to by nightfall.
