The notorious Fulani herdsmen attacked a small town in the Bosso local government area of Niger state.
They reportedly killed 4 people, burnt 15 houses, four cars and 17 motorcycles. They also destroyed the barns in which food items were stored.
The herdsmen were reportedly about 300 in number and it is speculated that the violence could be a reprisal for the attack on Fulanis by the Gwari in Lambata village near Paiko last Thursday evening.
Below are pictures of the aftermath of the attack and what they left behind.
