Over thirty houses were set on fire and one individual, named Samuel Peter, was reported dead in a community disturbance involving the Otukpo-Ojile and Ochi-Ibadan communities in Ankpa LGA of Kogi State.
Days of high tension were said to have existed between the two villages until Tuesday night, when the situation escalated and resulted in the local youth leader’s death as well as the damage of several properties, including motorbikes and houses.

It was learned that several additional Otukpo-Ojile locals had also suffered injuries in addition to Samuel, who was allegedly a resident.
To avoid becoming entangled in the situation, the communities’ residents have left the region and moved to other cities and villages.
