On Sunday the community was still deserted. The village head, Mati Bukadi, was among hundreds of residents who fled for safety, taking refuge at Safana council headquarters.

A community leader named Alhaji Adamu, said the gunmen launched the attack around 4 p.m. and spent about three hours ransacking the community, burning down houses and silos before the arrival of the vigilante members from a neighbouring community.

He said those who died were mostly members of the vigilante group ”who came to assist.”
