Jos, Nigeria: At least 12 people were killed at the weekend in two gun attacks in central Nigeria, an area where tensions have been rising between nomadic herders and local farming communities, police and officials said. In the first attack, gunmen opened fire from a car on a bar in Kuru in Jos in Plateau state, killing 10 people before driving off, local police spokesman Ubah Ogaba said.
