It was gathered that the two households, (AKU and MON) are both great grand children of Mbaakemcha, in Mbapen Clan of Taraku in Gwer East LGA. A source who hails from the area said that the crisis started as a result of land dispute between the two households.

Another witness who spoke on the condition of anonymity disclosed that the crisis had generated serious tension in Taraku town, a development which forced businessmen to close shops in the town.
