Wafu reportedly went to the tent Fulani herdsman and urged him to keep his cattle off the farm, but the Fulani man did not take kindly to that and butchered Wafu to death.
On hearing what had happened, the family members of Wafu also marched to the tent of the Fulani herdsman, butchered him to death and burnt down his tent.
According to Aisha, the family members of Wafu did not stop there; they went on to burn down the tents of other Fulani herdsmen in the area till late in the night.
