At least three people are feared killed in clashes between Gbagis and Fulani herdsmen in Garam, a suburb of Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja. The clashes were reportedly sparked after a Gbagi, injured from a one on one fight with a Fulani, died Monday evening.
The Gbagis are believed to be natives of the community. Hostile exchanges began after natives claimed the deceased was stabbed during the Saturday fight with the Fulani.
A witness, who pleaded anonymity for safety reasons, told reporters that at least three people have been killed in the clashes and many non-natives resident in the village have moved out.
