At least 15 people, including three housewives, have been killed at Binnari and Jab Jab villages in Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State.
According to a report by Daily Trust, the bandits stormed Binnari at about 4 am on Wednesday, shooting sporadically.
The villagers were said to have attempted to fight back but the bandits who reportedly numbered over 50, overpowered them.

During the retaliatory attack on Jab Jab, the gunmen were said to have killed many people and set houses ablaze.
