NDC Chairman Igbu Terhemen Found Dead in Makurdi Attack

Igbu Terhemen, the chairman of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) Fiidi Council Ward, was found dead on July 23, 2026, in a bush near his home in the Makurdi Local Government Area. He had left his house on the evening of September 29, 2026, to watch a local match in the Kanshio area.
When he did not return, family and friends searched for him, discovering his body around 2 am on July 23. Reports indicate that Terhemen was tied up and had a needle-like mark on his body, suggesting he may have been injected with a harmful substance.
The Benue State chapter of the NDC, through Publicity Secretary Agile Bem, condemned the attack, stating that Terhemen was "reportedly attacked by suspected hoodlums." State party chairman Ohini Ojegbe described the killing as a "broad-daylight evil" and urged security agencies to identify and arrest those responsible. As of September 30, 2026, the Benue State Police Command had not received a formal report on the incident.
