All six Turaga were assassinated by members of Bad Company, who were hired by the Peers. Each mercenary accomplished their mission - though with varying degrees of efficiency. The elders were replaced by their right-hand Matoran (Jaller, Hewki, etc).
Background
Months before their assassinations, the Turaga were captured by the Makuta, who had a Parakuka attached to each of them. After their release, the elders were secured by the Island Liberation Front and brought back to their respective villages.
Much like the Makuta, the Peers wished to destroy the faith and the unity of the Matoran. so they decided that the Turaga must die. Bad Company, a group of mercenaries and assassins whom they already employed, was the obvious choice.
Assassinations
Matau
Matau was shot in the head by a sniper hiding in a tree during his returning celebrations.[1]
Nuju
Nuju was in the sanctum when Brykon broke in, slaughtered his guards, fought the parakuka enhanced Turaga, and finally killed him. Brykon escaped by jumping into a deep chasm and fled through Onu-Wahi.[2]
Onewa
In fear of the approaching assassins, Onewa's Parakuka, Inu , sucked away his life force and killed him. Inu remained in the hut until it had the opportunity to latch on to Oreius.[3]
Whenua
Killed by Liacada who charged into a council meeting in the main square. She was captured after stabbing him.[4]
Vakama
Jin inflicted massive damage to people and property with a few Madu allowingDorian to enter the Fire Turaga's hut to kill him. Dorian left, forcing Jin to finish the job.[5]
Nokama
Assisted by the power hungry Daedra, Grokk entered her hut after the celebrations and killed Nokama. He quickly fled, giving the Deadra a fantastic opportunity to take over the villlage.[6]
Legacy
The assassinations did not quite throw the villages into chaos, but did offer opportunities for other groups, such as the Toa Daedra, to rise in power. Its main effect was demoralizing the Matoran.
Before his death, Turaga Vakama hinted to Dorian and Jin that the Turaga had known who the assassins would be, and had already set plans in motion to eventually make them pay for their crimes.
Before returning to Onu-Koro, Whenua hinted at his impending death to Kehuri. Kongu learned of this later.
The Turaga were succeeded as leaders of their respective villages by influential Matoran, who became the Akiri.
