The authorities deployed security forces to the region, also to prevent possible acts of revenge. Governor Caleb Mutfwang condemned a “barbaric, brutal” attack and vowed to hold the perpetrators accountable.

The region lies between the north of Nigeria, which is predominantly inhabited by Muslims, and the south, which is predominantly inhabited by Christians. There are repeated violent clashes between cattle breeders, who are mostly Muslims, and farmers, who are mostly Christians. Jihadists and criminal gangs are also active in the region.
