The Adamawa State Police Command has confirmed the death of three people in a clash between two communities.
The police said Wednesday that the clash ocurred between the Selti and Kpasham villages in Numan and Demsa local government areas.
“Following the report of a communal violence at Selti and Pkasham villages of Numan and Demsa local government areas that resulted in the death of three, the Commissioner of Police, Adamawa State Command, CP Dankombo Morris, personally led a team of police operatives to the scene, patrolled, assessed and swiftly restored order,” the command said in a press statement signed by the state Police Public Relations Officer, Suleiman Nguroje.
