Here's one source - https://www.csw.org.uk/2019/03/14/press/4249/article.htm

Here's a second - https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2019/03/13/herdsmen-kill-85-people-in-kaduna-communities/

It seems to be predominatly the Fulani (muslim) who are killing others. The Adara are majority Christian. One of the articles gives a little more info on why this is happening..

The Adara people are still mourning their traditional ruler, the Agom Adara III, HRH Dr Maiwada Raphael Galadima, who was abducted and murdered by Fulani assailants in October 2018, despite payment of a ransom. In December 2018, and without consultation, the Kaduna state government abolished and divided the predominantly Christian chiefdom, placing it under two emirates, despite the fact that under 15% of the population in the area are Hausa Fulani.

And yes, there are many examples of this happening. Some places like wiki refer to them as "Herd-farmer conflicts" rather than what they really are.
