At least 18 farmers are believed to have been hacked to death by unknown assailants at Dan-anacha in Gassol Local Government Area of Taraba in the early hours of Sunday.
The killings are one of the series of bloody attacks in the state. Most of the farmers were killed on their farms.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr David Misal, who confirmed the incident, said that the police would soon release the casualty figure.
“Actually, I cannot lie to you there are casualties, but we will release the figures later after we might have finished combing the area. It was an undercover attack by some unidentified people in the area,” Misal said.
