Police Warn Muslims To Stay-Off Jos Praying Ground by mukina2: 11:55am On Aug 14, 2012
The Police authority in Plateau State has warned Muslims in Jos, the Plateau state capital, to avoid observing their Eid-el-Fitr (end of Ramadan) prayers at the Rukuba Road praying ground on Sunday.

The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Emmanuel Ayeni, who made the appeal at a meeting with Muslim and Christian leaders in Plateau on Monday, said the move was aimed at avoiding a repeat of last year’s incident when some members of the Izalla Muslim group clashed with their Christian counterparts at the praying ground.

No fewer than 10 people were killed and several cars burnt in the clash.

The police boss appealed to the Muslims to avoid worshiping at Rukuba Road this Sallah, saying “I am passionately appealing that worshippers should avoid that place for now pending when the controversy surrounding that site is resolved.”

The Commander of the Special Task Force on Jos crisis, Major-General Henry Ayoola, who was at the meeting, also appealed to Muslims for understanding.

Represented by Umaru Miringa, Ayoola state that, “if a place is under litigation, the wise thing is to avoid using the place until it is resolved. The state government is already making efforts for alternative place of worship for the Izalla group pending when the issue is resolved.”

Ethno-religious violence has claimed tens of lives in the crisis-prone state since 2001

afam4eva: One Nigeria for life.
I don't see togetherness in Nigeria again. What I see is toleration & hatred...Everyone/ethnic group or tribe is just waiting to explode.
I did my NYSC in Jos & I know the problem of that place. It's like a case of Beroms, Yorubas, Ibos & other groups Vs the Hausa/Fulanis. They don't like eachother except to do eye service. If the Muslim Hausa/Fulanis want peace, they should just obey & worship quietly in their domot. Moreso, Yoruba muslim do not go to the praying ground in Rukuba Road due to security reasons.
Rukuba Road is highly dominated by Beroms & other tribes in Plateau, Ibos & little Yorubas except Hausa/Fulanis. Truely, there was once a muslim praying ground (now abandoned) in this area. But the area is now dominated by people of different faith & belief.
Although I really enjoyed my service year, but I will never advice any Nigerian posted to Jos for NYSC to accept it in good faith. I survived via God's grace, steadfastness & prayer.

Bigotry, prejudic, bias abound on NL.
If I don't try and educate some tribalistic ibos on the true events of 1967,I would be trying to enlighten some religious bigots.
Funny enough, some of them would fight side by side when attacking Islam and later face each other when it get ethnic.
Sentimental lots.
