A violent clash between residents over a gold mining site has claimed one life in Garin Katta community, Yauri Local Government Area of Kebbi State.
The crisis, which broke out on Saturday after a misunderstanding among miners, escalated on Sunday when relatives of the deceased reportedly launched a reprisal attack.
The confrontation led to the destruction of property, vandalisation of shops, and motorcycles being set ablaze.
In response, the Chairman of Yauri LGA, Abubakar Shuaibu, imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
He disclosed that security agencies, including the Police Area Commander and the Department of State Services, had been notified to restore calm, with military support also sought.
Police authorities confirmed the recovery and burial of the victim in line with Islamic rites. Investigations are ongoing to apprehend those behind the killing.
