Gunmen attack multiple Berom communities in Plateau State, killing two people, injuring one, and burning houses, according to reports from local outlets. The attacks occur on Tuesday night across at least four locations.
Vanguard says the incidents take place in areas including Gwa-Wereng Rim, Kyeng Village in Bachi District, Dorong, and Jol Village, citing the Berom Youth Moulders-Association (BYM). The Punch similarly reports that four Berom communities are targeted, with two deaths and one injury, and that houses are set on fire.
While the outlets broadly agree on the death toll, injury, and that multiple communities are affected, they differ mainly in how they list the specific places involved. Both accounts attribute the violence to “gunmen” and describe it as part of continuing unrest affecting communities in Plateau State. Details on suspected perpetrators, motives, and official security responses are not provided in the excerpts.
