Soyinka Warns Against Foreign Intervention in Nigeria's Insecurity Crisis

Renowned playwright Soyinka cautions against foreign intervention exacerbating Nigeria's security challenges during his visit to Benue State. He praises Governor Hyacinth Alia's efforts in addressing the insecurity, clarifying that the crisis in Benue is not solely religiously motivated but involves farmer-herder conflicts and banditry.

Soyinka highlights the need for a proper understanding of the term "genocide" and criticizes the previous administration's handling of the security situation. Governor Alia emphasizes the non-religious nature of the violence and urges for accurate reporting to avoid misinformation.
