Africa | Nigeria May 4, 2021

At least 15 villagers mainly farmers have been massacred in Nigeria, reported some media on May 4, 2021. The massacre is said to have been carried out in a village in the country’s Benue State, by some armed assailants who also burned down houses in the village.

The massacre is reportedly a result of herder-farmer conflicts that now characterize Benue State and several other states in the West African nation. _________________________ © 2015 - 2021 Africauptodate. All Rights Reserved
