Comment on Active: In February 2021 a conflict between Agarabi and Tapo erupted over a piece of land known for alluvial mining. A small conflict between families escalated to a communal conflict. It started when an Agarabi man, while making garden, extended the boundary of a land area into a land owned by man from Tapo . The land grab together with soil erosion caused a dispute between the two tribes in February 2021 that escalated into a violent communal conflict. Police tried to contain the violence and the families were supposed to compensate each other. Community leaders, law and justice sector leaders formed a Peace and Good order committee in March 2021 and prepared for the signing of a ceasefire on 8 April when the conflict escalated again. This time a fight broke out between two women over an unrelated issue, the fight triggered full battle between the communities after houses of the Agarabi tribe were burnt down. Both sides mobilized their communities and different weaponry were involved including bows, arrows, home-made guns, M16 assault rifles and a hand grenade were used. After negotiations mediated by a police commander deployed in the area, a ceasefire agreement was signed on 5 May 2021 and a peace agreement on 24 June 2021.
