At least two persons were k!lled and several others injured following a renewed clash between farmers and herders in Bandawa village, Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State. 

The incident began on May 11, 2025 when the police in Karim Lamido received a distress report that one Buhari Malam, 34, was macheted by suspected Fulani herders on his farm. 

The victim was rushed to the Primary Health Care Centre (PHCC) Bandawa but later d!ed while receiving treatment. 

According to the security sources who spoke to Zagazola Makama, the k!lling sparked a reprisal by aggrieved youths in Bandawa, who killed five cows and injured seven others. 

On May 12, another farmer, Ishaku Tunde, was attacked on his farm at about 10 :10 a.m. by suspected herders. 

The victim sustained multiple machete wounds and is currently receiving treatment at the PHCC. 

Similarly, at about 12:30 p.m. the same day, one Dauda Bawa, was attacked while travelling from Bandawa to Karim Lamido. 

He sustained deep cuts to his neck and was confirmed d3ad on arrival at the PHCC,” the sources added. 

He further disclosed that one Ardo Baka, a Fulani community leader, reported to the station that six of their herders had not returned home since the violence erupted. 

Security operatives comprising the military, police, vigilantes, and hunters have been deployed to the area, while peace meetings with community stakeholders are ongoing. 

“Intensive patrols and surveillance have been reinforced. The situation is presently under control,” security sources assured.

Meanwhile, the ugly development has led to the displacement of many people who are now taking refuge in Lau town. 

The Chairman of Karim Lamido Local Government Council, Hon. Bitrus Danjos, visited them at the IDP camp on Monday and reiterated the readiness of the government to protect lives and properties.
