Fulani Attacks: Beroms Flee Villages to Safety

“We have lost our homes and everything in them. Our sons and
daughters have been slain; our husbands can no longer visit their farms; we are in hunger and distress. We would rather flee this village than die here either by the sword of the Fulani herdsmen or in hunger.” This was the lamentation of Berom women, who have lost virtually all they had to Fulani persistent attacks, as they flee Kak village in Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State, after a recent attack that claimed the lives of over 10 persons. Meanwhile, the member representing Riyom constituency in the state House of Assembly, Hon. Daniel Dem, and a team of journalists, who had gone to the affected villages for on-the-spot assessment narrowly escaped death at Kak village when a group of armed Fulani herdsmen attacked the village.
