The conflict, which erupted last week in Ngagma-Gbregu, stemmed from a chieftaincy dispute over the installation of rival chiefs by the Chief of Binde. The violence raged for three days, resulting in widespread destruction. More than 150 homes were set ablaze, and over 5,000 sacks of stored food were destroyed, deepening the crisis for affected families.
