Kachalla explained that the herdsmen engaged the terrorists in the gunfight, targeting their cattle outside Fuhe Village near Ngala, close to the border with Cameroon.
The Herald gathered that the anti-jihadist militia leader added that the corpses of the late herdsmen have been brought to a police station in the state.
