Reprisals attacks have been reported in the troubled council areas of Plateau State, where a senator and an assembly man were killed Sunday at the mass burial for earlier victims of attacking Fulani herdsmen.
According to reports available to P.M.News this morning, the counter attacks by Birom youths may have jacked the death toll to over 200. The youths were said to have embarked on their own orgy of violence last night killing all persons identified to be either Hausa or Fulani within Riyom and Barkin ladi and those on
transit through Plateau major highways from Abuja and Kaduna .
To contain further killings and spread of the violence to parts of the state , Plateau state government has further extended the 6pm-6am curfew imposed yesterday , Sunday to 6pm-12noon from today, thus leaving residents only four hours to move around .
