House‑to‑House Attacks Underway; Residents Urged to Take Cover Immediately
TruthNigeria and Equipping the Persecuted (ETP) have received credible intelligence confirming that Fulani Ethnic Militia (FEM) are conducting active house‑to‑house attacks against Christian farming communities in Otukpo Local Government Area under the cover of darkness.
Attackers are reportedly avoiding gunfire to prevent alerting nearby residents. Instead, they are moving from hut to hut, knocking on doors and killing victims with machetes, according to field sources monitoring the situation.
FEM fighters have been sighted in the forests around Ikobi, Ojantele, and Ataganyi, from where they may kidnap travelers along the highway or launch fresh assaults on nearby communities.
