Over 100 corpses discovered in villages in Plateau State

 

More than 100 corpses were found in two deserted villages in Barkin Ladi local government area of Plateau State yesterday by security agents. They were victims of the mass slaughter by fulani herdsmen who invaded their villages over the weekend.

Not only were several killed, many homes were burnt down, leaving many villagers homeless and seeking refuge at neighboring villages.

Boko Haram yesterday claimed responsibility for the killings.
