The Niger State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Bishop Bulus Yohanna has urged warring tribes in the state to end the killings and destruction.
Yohanna made this known in a statement wherein he urged the Bargawa, Fulani and Kambari tribes of Agara and Borgue local government areas to sheath their swords and put an end to the killings, maiming and destruction of properties, saying nobody has the right to take the law into his own hands.
The chairman who is also the Catholic Bishop of Kontagora Diocese noted that the clashes and killings between the Kambaris, Fulanis and Bargawa tribes have claimed several lives and rendered people homeless in the Borgu Emirate.
While noting that these tribes had lived peacefully for decades, the Bishop blamed the attacks on those who, he said, infiltrated their communities from other countries.
