The Nigerian government says at least 160 people were killed in attacks by armed groups on remote farming communities at the weekend.
It's the worst violence in the central Plateau state in more than five years.
No group has claimed responsibility but nomadic herders are believed to be responsible.
Herders and farmers have been locked in a decades-long conflict over access to land and water.
Why has the Nigerian government failed to prevent these attacks?
And what does it mean for the country's wider security problem - as it faces challenges on multiple fronts?
