The police confirmed the incident through the state’s spokesperson DSP Bala Elkalla in Minna, the state capital on Friday, January 13.

Elkalla said that police had contained the situation which occurred in Bosso Local Government Area of the state and also revealed that one of the leaders of the two parties involved in the clash had been arrested and was providing the police with useful information.

“We have stationed sufficient number of policemen in Sabon Daga village as well as six neighbouring villages to prevent any further attacks.

“We will get to the root of the matter and those found wanting will surely be prosecuted,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Dr Matthew Kukah has berated those who claim they kill in the name of God.

Dr Kukah, who made the statement at a book launch in Abuja yesterday, January 12, stated that those who kill in the name of God do not have a sense of confidence in the God they worship.

Just in you don,t know

Fulani herdsmen, everywhere you go, you leave sorrow, tears and blood.. Your regular trademark

No 1 one citizen is a Fulani he -goat. What do u expect. Buhari go join ur people for bush oo. We are tired of ur rule o.

Human's and lower animals can never leave together in peace, the country is an expired product of the British. Let's do the needful.

Why can't states enact laws that will limit the activities of these herdsmen since the FG is obviously not ready to do anything about it?
What sort country is this that no day passes without news of killings? Tufiakwa!

The truth is that our government doesn't value human lives!

And it's so pathetic!

I just dont get why security personnels allow this to happen. Fulani herdsmen most of the times walk on foot, so arresting these terrorists should not be so hard as it is currently portrayed.

Buhari boys doing wat they do best
Just keep the job up north

Next turn
South west

Officially, these fulani people are demons.

Buhari boys? Yes, no doubt but wishing evil for innocent people, I mean people of SW makes you more Buhari than Muhamadu Buhari himself.
Inasmuch as we play here, you need to show the human side of you and stop wishing death for nobody 'cos there ain't coming back from there.
