Residents of the crisis-ridden communities have been fleeing their various communities to seek protection of their lives elsewhere following the renewed bloody clash between the warring communities.

There has been a prolonged battle between the two communities over land dispute which had in the past claimed lives and properties.

The crisis took a dangerous dimension on Wednesday when one person was reportedly killed and several others were injured just as many houses and properties worth millions of naira were burnt.
