At least eight people die following a communal clash between farmers and herders in Gulma town, Argungu Local Government Area of Kebbi State, reports across outlets say. The violence is described as erupting after an incident in which a herder is alleged to have stabbed a farmer to death on the farmer’s farmland. In response, members of the farming community reportedly carry out a reprisal attack targeting Fulani settlements.
Both reports characterize the incident as part of broader tensions between farming and herding communities and note that the deaths amount to no fewer than eight victims. The accounts focus on the sequence of events—an alleged killing on a farm followed by retaliatory attacks—and identify the location as Gulma in Argungu LGA. The reports do not provide detailed information on arrests, official investigations, or the identities of the victims. As of the published reports, the confirmed figure remains eight deaths, attributed to the clash between the two groups.
