Gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen on Thursday night struck in Ngutsen village, Wurojam Ward, Gasol Local Government Area of Taraba State, killing at least four persons.
The strike by the gunmen came just a few hours after the Taraba State Governor, Darius Ishaku, raised the alarm that there are plans to attack the state again by gunmen.
Ishaku said no fewer than 63 persons were buried in the state on a single day arising from gunmen’s attack in the state.
The latest attack was said to have been carried out at about 9pm on Thursday night.
The attackers, said to be armed with sophisticated weapons, were said to have arrived in their numbers as the villagers were retiring for the night.
