Three persons are feared dead, several others injured and houses burnt following a dispute between two neighbouring communities Ilofa and Odo-owa in Oke-ero Local Government Area of Kwara State.

Eyewitnesses say trouble began when one of the traditional rulers of one of the two communities went to the market jointly owned by the two villages to flag off the annual yam festival.

This according to reports did not go down well with the other traditional ruler who stormed the market with criminals to dislodge them.

Soldiers have been deployed to maintain law and order.
