    About six people have reportedly lost their lives, with scores injured, after angry youths attacked Fulani residents in Mera community, Augie Local Government Area of Kebbi State.

    SaharaReporters reports that the youths reportedly carried out the attack on Sunday in response to allegation that linked some Fulani individuals to recent bandit raids in the area.

    According to the report, the violence was allegedly triggered after a survivor of Friday’s bandit attack informed the community youths that he recognised some Fulani faces among the attackers, known locally as “Lakurawa.”

    Angered by the revelation, the youths retaliated, killing six Fulani individuals and injuring numerous others.




    Nafiu Abubakar, Kebbi State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed that the incident was a reprisal attack by the angry youths, according to the report.

    Abubakar stated that law enforcement agents had been sent to the community to prevent further violence.

    “We have deployed personnel to the area to calm the situation,” Abubakar said, assuring residents of ongoing efforts to restore peace in the troubled area.
