A source in the area who did want his name in print said many people were killed in the encounter.

Our correspondent gathered that the clash occurred after Governor Caleb Mutfwang relaxed the 24-hour curfew imposed on the area from 8 am to 4 pm on Friday night.

It was further learnt that about 30 gunmen were  killed while some soldiers sustained injuries during the clash at Satguru and Tyop villages all in Mangu LGA of the state.

A security operative who did mentioned his name said; “The incident occurred between 7 and 7:30 am when the gunmen came in their numbers and started attacking some communities along Gindri road. Immediately the soldiers were alerted they responded.
