The President said in a tweet: "I kept in touch with the Leader of the Senate, illustrating the few moves we have made because of the killings in Benue State. Let me again guarantee all Nigerians of my pledge to guaranteeing that equity is done and that Nigerians are remained careful and secure." 

The letter was made accessible to the media by the Uncommon Counsel to the President on Media and Exposure, Femi Adesina on Thursday, 1 February, 2018. 

The following is the full content of the letter: 

I thank you for your letter Reference NASS/8S/R/01/33 dated eighteenth January, 2018 and I have deliberately contemplated the goals and remarks contained in that. 

As I informed you and the Rt. Hon. Speaker when we met on the fourteenth January, 2018, a few game-plans had just been taken before the Senate Goals. You may review that I let you know of the accompanying advances taken when data came to me about the Benue killings. 

On Thursday fourth January, I sent the Pastor of Inside and the Agent Reviewer General of Police accountable for Tasks for an on the spot evaluation of the circumstance. 

On Friday, fifth January, the Monitor General of Police advised me verbally on the most recent circumstance. Quiet had by then been reestablished. 

On Monday eighth the Pastor of Inside met with the accompanying: 

Legislative heads of Adamawa, Kaduna, Niger, Taraba, Benue and Nasarawa States along with 

Chief General of the State Security Administrations (DG SSS) 

Controller General of Police 

Commandant General, Common Protection 

Clergyman of Agribusiness and Provincial Turn of events 

Magistrates of Police from the six previously mentioned states 

Officers of Common Protection from the six previously mentioned states. 

After the gathering I taught the Clergyman of lnterior to brief you on the data assembled up until now and steps taken. On Tuesday ninth January, I had a long meeting with Lead representative Ortom of Benue State during which I educated him regarding police capture of certain suspects with Kalashnikovs. Likewise, I revealed to him that I had educated the IGP to accelerate preliminary and indictment of the suspects and give wide exposure to the police endeavors. 

In line with the Lead representative a gathering was held in the Presidential Manor on fifteenth January, with a wide – cross – segment of Benue personages where plain and open conversations were held and everyone in the gathering valued the multifaceted nature and challenges of this rancher/herder hardship. I guaranteed one and all of my duty to guarantee that equity is quickly done. 

To induce, consequently that nothing has been done is mistaken. The police are exhaustingly attempting to capture the remainder of the guilty parties of these relentless killings. Moreover, I have educated the Monitor General of Police to move to Benue State, redeploy powers to the most delicate regions. The Government is starting extra measures to address these and other security challenges, mitigate the outcomes of these assaults and hinder reoccurrence. The Senate Goals ordered in your letter will be thought about and I am educating all important MDAs to calculate them their work. 

Prior, on December nineteenth 2017 to be exact, while getting the Report of the Board of trustees which I had set up to audit the operational, specialized and managerial structure of the Public knowledge Organization (NIA), I underscored the need to survey the whole public security design – as I guaranteed in my debut Address on 29th May, 2015. Activity is being started and I hope to get greatest participation from the Senate, in accordance with section (iii) of the Senate Goals. 

It would be ideal if you acknowledge, Mr. Senate President, the confirmations of my most elevated respects.
