Fulani herdsmen kill two farmers in reprisal attack in Plateau State

At least two persons have been reported dead  in Barakin-Ladi Local Govenment Area of Plateau State following a reprisal attack by some persons suspected  to be Fulani herdsmen.
The herdsmen were alleged to be on a revenge mission to the  area following the killing of three of their kinsmen recently.
It was gathered that the Fulani herdsmen ambushed a group of youths working on their farms and killed them  while six others sustained several degree of injuries.
Executive Director of Stefanos Foundation, Mr Mark Lipdo, who confirmed the attack, said the  herdsmen attacked the people in their farms on Thursday and destroyed their farms.
He said: “They came into the village with their guns, shooting at villagers. One villager was injured on the leg,” adding that the attack was followed, on Thursday, with the killing of two persons.
Also confirming the luciferous incident, the Plateau State police spokesman,  Mr Emmanuel Abuh,  said that no arrest had been made yet.
According to him, the victims had gone to their farms, but on their way back, they were waylaid and killed with guns by the  herdsmen.
It will be recalled that three Fulani men were killed at Sho village in Barakin-Ladi Local Government Area of the state recently by people suspected to be natives (Berom),  while one of the four people escaped by the whiskers.
