The lawmaker and a victim
The crisis between Bachama farmers and Fulani herdsmen in Taraba State have left dozens of citizens brutally killed as a lawmaker, Hon Joseph Albasu Alkinjo Kunini, wept uncontrollable while going round all the villages that were affected.
Multiple online reports revealed that dozen of people were killed over the weekend in apparent tit-for-tat clashes between the farmers and cattle herders in Taraba state.
It was gathered that the member representing Lau local government area in the Taraba State House of Assembly, took a big risk after being warned against visiting the scene by security details as he insisted on seeing things for himself.
The lawmaker commiserated with the people and sued for peace among them as Military and joint task force have since been deployed in and around the crisis area.
