It was learnt that the attack which occurred on Sunday night claimed no fewer than 15 lives while scores were injured.
It was also gathered that several houses were razed during the attack, according to a source who craved anonymity.
The source who confided in our correspondent, said, “I was able to count and get about 15 people killed. There is the likelihood that there are those killed in their houses while others could have died in the buses as a result of gun wounds they sustained.
“The destruction made by the attackers last night is so terrifying as the suspected Fulani militias came in their large numbers and well organised. They came with sophisticated weapons and carried out their acts of destroying both lives, houses and property of the natives.”
Although no official confirmation either from the state government or state Police Command, the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria on the state, Rev. John Hayab, described the attack as sad and grieving.
According to the CAN leader, the latest attack and killing in Kagoro, without any substantial action from the government and security forces, is sad and grieving.
