At press time, elders in the community were making efforts to calm the youths.
A police source told The Nation that it has not been medically proven that anyone can cause a body organ to disappear, and appealed to the youths to give peace a chance.
The youths also barricaded the Makurdi-Lafia federal highway and made bonfires.
There was traffic gridlock on the highway following the blockage of the only road that links Benue with Nasarawa State.
