Over 1,000 people have been rendered homeless in two villages in Riyom local government area of Plateau State, Nigeria following an invasion on Friday night by unknown assailants who torched their houses.
Two aged women were said to have been killed and about 30 houses burnt in the attack on Dakum and Jol villages.
The attack is believed to be a continuation of the hostilities between the Berom and Fulani which has resulted in an upsurge in attack and counter attacks in recent weeks.
