Taraba state government and the state police command cannot agree on the actual number of persons killed and the communities over the actual death figures and the number of communities in the state that have been overrun by suspected Fulani herdsmen during the weekend.
Addressing journalists on the matter, the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Shaba Alkali, said no fewer than 15 people were killed from two communities, but a press statement on the same subject matter signed by the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Media, Slyvanus Giwa, put the casualty at 44, and the affected communities at 4 . https://www.today.ng/news/national/105674/herdsmen-overrun-4-taraba-communities-kill-44
