Sources said natives had gone on many social media platforms calling for assistance to repel the attackers, whom they said were lurking around the communities.
The Media Officer of Operation Safe Haven, Samson Zhakom said at press time that he was awaiting details of the incident before he could comment.
The natives under the aegis of Bokkos Cultural Development Council, BCDC, confirmed to newsmen that the area has been under persistent attacks since May 2024.
Chairman of the group, Farmasum Fuddang said despite the Nigerian military’s peace agreements, over 30 killings and 1,000 farm destructions have occurred since May 2024.
