A communal clash between Fulani herders and indigenous residents of Rwan and Kopmon communities in Mushere District, Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State, has left one woman dead and several houses destroyed.
The violence, which erupted early Monday morning, was confirmed by security analyst Zagazola Makama in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.
According to Makama, the Youth President of Mushere District alerted security agencies to the situation at approximately 8:10 a.m.
While the exact cause of the conflict remains unclear, the confrontation reportedly escalated rapidly, resulting in the death of an unidentified woman and widespread destruction of property.
Troops from the Nigerian Army, alongside personnel from the Joint Task Force, were deployed to the affected communities to restore order and prevent further violence.
Security operatives have since been monitoring the situation, with efforts underway to apprehend those responsible for the attack.
