A good number of yet to be ascertained people are still missing as over 20,000 have been displaced and in dire need of food, shelter and clothing.
On Saturday, eleven more bodies recovered were buried in two communities in the State.
A resident who gave his name as Michael said, “The 11 bodies were given mass burial at the two communities of Dungmunan and Jwak Maitumbi villages before the bereaved families returned to internally displaced camps in Mangu town.
“At this moment, the Fulani militia has taken over Marit Hill in Barkin Ladi Local government as their camp to attack people that return to their villages in Mararaba Kantoma, Jwak Maitumbi and Dungmunan which are in Mangu local government.
“The village head of Jwak Maitumbi, Mr. Obidah Manja is one of the victims given mass burial.”
