A resident, Salifu Ibrahim said they were resting in their rooms when suddenly, they heard some gunshots outside and when they came out, they noticed some people had been shot.

He said several houses were torched whiles motorbikes were made away with.

Another resident, Osman, said he was in a pen when he heard people approaching the place.

He said when he stepped out, they had begun burning some huts.
