In Gurjaja village, which is in Yobe State, there was a bad event. Some people, believed to be Fulani herdsmen hurt one person and destroyed more than 100 houses.
This happened because earlier, the Fulani herdsmen hurt three people from Gurjaja village. So, the people from the village got angry and hurt two Fulani herdsmen in return.
After this, the Fulani herdsmen came back and burned the whole village. This made the people in the village run away to other nearby towns and villages.
The Fulani people came at night, burned the houses, and destroyed the farmers’ crops.
