A young man simply identified as Musa has been murdered in a land dispute involving two warring factions in the Leana-Benue boarder area, under Keana Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.
A source close to the location of the incident informed that, the deceased young man, Musa, whom he said just completed his mandatory National Youth Service Corps and had barely ventured into farming was caught up in the bloody clash where he was killed on Monday.
The clash, according to the source, who preferred not to be mentioned, started between members of Alago community and Tiv farmers, which got out of hand and resulted in several casualties, among whom were the injured and others who were reportedly battling for survival at an undisclosed hospital where they were taken for treatment.
But the immediate cause of the conflict could not be established as at the time of the report.
The Pinnacle Times gathered that security agents had taken over the scene of the incident to bring about normalcy and secure lives and property of the people.
