Two people were allegedly killed by Fulani herdsmen in Afam Uku in the local state-owned river territory.

Gbali says the deceased was attacked and killed by the suspect Fulani herdsmen in their lands.

He said: "We woke up this morning to hear the story of the two people killed by the Fulani herdsmen.

'' I do not really know the reason for the murder. But I believe it has to do with the destruction of farm crops by cattle.

'' The victims, who I learned, interrogated the motive for the destruction of their crops by the cattle breeders' cattle.

"There might have been hot exchanges between the victims and the herdsmen. One of the victims was from Tai.
