Two persons have been killed and 40 houses burnt in a clash between two communities in Akoko-Edo local government.
The two communities, Uneme-Ekpedo and Bekuma-Okpameri, had the fracas on Wednesday after some members quarreled over mango.
It was gathered that four persons from Uneme-Ekpedo community went to a bush to pluck mangoes but one of them was killed by youths from Bekuma-Okpameri community who claimed the mango tree belonged to them.
Peeved by the killing, youths from Uneme-Ekpedo were said to have mobilized and attacked Bekuma-Okpameri attacking residents and set houses ablaze.
The palace of the traditional ruler of Bekuma-Okpameri, HRH Moses Alabi, was set ablaze.
Persons injured in the attacked are now receiving treatment at an emergency camp at Lampese, a neighboring community.
A source said, “As I am talking to you, there is nobody in Bekuma-Okpameri. It was unbelievable. The youths have completely sacked the community and residents are now camped in Lampese.”
Edo State Commissioner of Police, Chris Ezike, confirmed the incident and said a fact finding police team has been sent to the community to arrest the perpetrators.
Ezike added that the police held talks with the two traditional rulers.

That is the level the hardship has reached. One day if nothing changes, people will start queuing up for sachet water and may even kill if you dare disrupt the queue. Oh! Nigeria once a great nation but now Buhari's empire and little his cattle, many are starving and malnourished.

Abject poverty is a disease.
