At least five persons
have been killed in Wukari area of Taraba following the judgement passed by the
state’s election petition tribunal on Saturday.
The tribunal had
nullified the election of Governor Darius Ishaku and had declared Senator Aisha
Alhassan as the winner of the state’s April 11th governorship election.
A security official
according to SaharaReporters said supporters of Governor Ishaku and Senator
Alhassan clashed throughout the night until the early hours of Sunday.
It’s believed that
the situation will degenerate into a serious communal crisis if not well
handled because of the fragile ethnoreligious balance in the area
