By PETER DURU<\/strong><\/p>\n

MAKURDI-Tor Tiv Alfred Torkula has warned politicians in Benue State to stop making inciting statements that could set the indigenes against one another.<\/p>\n

Torkula gave the warning when the leadership of the Community of Tiv Students, CTS, visited his palace in Gboko.<\/p>\n

He cautioned that the unity of the Tiv race should not be sacrificed on the altar of an individual\u2019s political ambition.<\/p>\n

He regretted that some politicians in the state had in their desperation to acquire power, failed to learn from history by deliberately resorting to inflamatory statements to create\u00a0 disharmony among the people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
