Several others were injured as shootings were reported in multiple villages up to midnight, despite advance warnings of escalating attacks.

The latest killings bring the death toll from related incidents in Plateau State to more than 40 in the past 10 days, including a pastor killed in an ambush on his way to church on Sunday.

Tribal leaders are questioning the enforcement of the recently imposed curfew by security agencies, amid escalating terror threats.
