The military yesterday suspected that the herdsmen that have been killing innocent people in some states in the north are targeting Abuja, the seat of the government, and cautions the populace against..
identifying with them.
The herdsmen, who have been operating under the cover of the night, according to the military, were hired by some unscrupulous faceless people to unleash terror on the populace.
The terrorists have killed about 2,000 innocent people in the last few weeks.
The military has been dispatching troops to Benue, Nasarawa and Plateau states at the directive of President Goodluck Jonathan.
Some top officers that were sent to Benue on fact-finding mission were said to have written a damning report that showed that the herdsmen were coming into the country from the neighbouring countries to attack, kill and destroy.
According to a top officer of the Defence Headquarters, the herdsmen are planning to launch some sporadic attacks on the federal capital. A senior military officer quoted excerpts from the report but promised that the military is up to the task of stopping them from entering Abuja.
