Suspected Fulani herdsmen have reportedly attacked Gbor-Ucha community in Wukari, Taraba state. The attackers were said to have invaded the town on Sunday evening and set fire to the entire village.
Goodman Dahida, President of the Tiv Cultural and Social Association in the state, said this during a meeting with Governor Dave Umahi-led technical sub-committee on ending herdsmen and farmers clashes.
“I can’t confirm whether there are casualties, but my branch chairman in Wukari who went to the scene told me that the entire village had been razed.
“This is happening despite the presence of the military who are conducting Operation Cat Race in the state. “I want to appeal to this committee to look deep into this issue with a view to finding a lasting solution to the crisis,” he said.
Meanwhile, the police have yet to confirm the attack in Wukari.
