THREE members of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) in Benue State were reportedly killed and several others wounded in the fracas that trailed the party’s senatorial caucus meeting, held in Otukpo, on Friday. Otukpo is the headquarters of Benue South senatorial district. APC stalwarts, who spoke with Sunday Tribune, in Otukpo, accused the state party chairman for the clash. He noted that some members of the party from the zone had planned to disrupt the meeting but said despite such plans, the meeting went well. Supporting the chairman, the APC state director of publicity, Apeh Peter, stated that there was no fracas, not to talk of killing during the caucus meeting.
