A community leader, Lawrence Zango, confirmed the killings on Friday, Zango said three of the victims are pregnant women.
He described the incident as very unfortunate because it is the same village that has experienced attack in the past which led to the killing of a pastor and several others.
They were said to have moved from one house to another attacking innocent people.
Several persons sustained injuries during the raid, and many families fled to escape the violence. Efforts to reach the Plateau State Police Command Spokesman SP Alfred Alabo, for more details were unsuccessful.
