Three people have reportedly died, and several others have sustained injuries following a renewed conflict in Nkwanta in the Oti Region.
Residents are gripped with fear after violent clashes erupted on Wednesday, January 16, and extended into Thursday night. The situation remains tense, with reports of sporadic gunfire by unidentified individuals.
Videos obtained by Citi News capture loud gunshots and extensive damage to property. Sources suggest that the conflict is tribal in nature, involving three indigenous groups: the Challa and the Adele on one side and the Achodes on the other.
It is unclear whether security forces have been deployed to contain the escalating conflict, but Citi News’ sources indicate that sporadic fighting was still ongoing.
