THREE people were killed and over 6000 displaced in a renewed clash between Fulani herdsmen and Agatu farmers.

According to an eyewitness, the Fulani herdsmen invaded Ikpele and Okpokolo communities of Agatu Local Government Area, set houses ablaze and shot sporadically into the air, which led to the killing of three people.

Confirming the report, the state Commissioner for Works and Transport, Mr John Ngbede, told newsmen that the Fulani herdsmen used a community in Omala Local Government Area of Kogi State as entry point to attack the two communities.

Ngbede, who commended the chairman of Omala Local Government for the hospitality accorded the Agatu people in the earlier attack, however, appealed to him that he should ensure the beefing up of security at the border between the two areas, stressing that the porous nature of the place now serves as entry point for the invading Fulanis.

The commissioner further called on Federal Government to put a military post in the communities that border the troubled area in Nasarawa and Kogi for more security.

Confirming the report, thePolice Public Relation Officers (PPRO), Deputy Supertindent Police Dan Ezeala, said that the Fulani herdsmen attacked and killed one person.
