Yet to be identified military personnel have allegedly abducted and murdered a tax collector and Senior Inspector of Taxes with the Benue State Internal Revenue Service, BIRS, Mr. Terfa Akure in Makurdi.<\/p>\n

Akure was said to have been abducted from his duty post at about 11pm Saturday at a gazetted BIRS Inspection point located close to the \u2018C\u2019 Dvision of the State Police Command in the North Bank area of Makurdi town.<\/p>\n

According to Vanguard, an eyewitness who is also known as a \u2018barrier boy\u2019 at the inspection point who spoke in condition of anonymity, said the suspected military personnel<\/a> stormed the inspection point in a military van.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey came in a military vehicle at about 11am, shouting and threatening to kill everyone and we all started running. But Mr. Akure said he would not run because he was on legitimate duty and was sent to his duty post by the government.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they got to him, they started beating him up and took away his phone and the funds collected by the team on night duty. After that they bundled him into their vehicle and took him away.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe only saw that his dead body was this Sunday morning at about 6am dropped on the roadside at Yagba community very close to the Ape Aku Housing Estate in North Bank of Makurdi,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Vanguard gathered that the discovery of Akure\u2019s corpse at Yagba, Sunday morning sparked outrage<\/a> and almost triggered a violent protest by members of the community but the quick intervention of Governor Samuel Ortom\u2019s Security Adviser, Colonel Paul Hemba and other top government functionaries who were asked to take charge of the matter by the Governor.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the Executive Chairman of BIRS, Mrs. Mimi Adzape-Orubibi, confirm the murder of her personnel in a statement issued in Makurdi, the state capital.<\/p>\n

Part of the statement read, \u201cI have received with deep shock and pain, the sad news of the brutal murder<\/a> of one of my staff, Sixtus Terfa Akure, who until his death was a Senior Inspector of Taxes.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnconfirmed sources indicate that the late Sixtus was whisked away last night by military personel in what has become a regular occurrence, and his mangled body was found early hours of today around Aper Aku Estate by the road side.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am understandably deeply pained by his death. And the circumstances under which he died.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a service we condemn this in the strongest terms possible. We offer our deepest condolences to the immediate family of this young man who paid the supreme price in service to the State.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to assure all staff of the service that we will leave no stone unturned in getting to the rock bottom of this matter. The perpetrators will be brought to justice no matter what it takes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have since made a formal report to Governor Ortom who has not only offered his condolences but has already given assurances that the state government will never abdicate it\u2019s responsibility to protect citizens and residents of the state.\u201d<\/p>\n

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, Superintendent Catherine Anene who confirmed the murder of the tax official said she was yet to receive information on the circumstances surrounding the murder.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe corpse was evacuated by the Police but I am yet to receive details of the death,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
