LRA stormed the town on 3 March 2015 and abducted 13 people. The local self-defense group clashed with LRA and managed to kill one militia. Later, nine abductees were released.

An unknown armed militia attacked Nabiapai on 26 November 2016 and pillaged the market before withdrawing to Congo. No groups claimed responsibility, but locals blamed the South Sudan People's Patriotic Front group led by Alfred Futiyo Karaba for the attack.

SSPDF clashed with FARDC on 2 September 2017 over the misunderstanding. The clash stopped when the commanders from both sides intervened. Due to the clash, some of the residents fled to Yambio.
