Adamawa: How we lost 73 members in Tingno crisis – Hausa community
Violence had broken out between the Hausa-Fulani community and its Chobo neighbours on May 15, causing deaths and destruction of valuables.
Spokesman of the Hausa-Fulani Community, Alhaji Aliyu Tingno, who delivered the text of the briefing Thursday afternoon, alleged that the police victimized the community because while operatives of the police arrested 57 people from its side, they arrested none from the Chobo side.
Responding to the allegations Thursday evening, the state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Suleiman Nguroje, said arrests were made as they were deemed necessary, and that investigations were still on.
