This is getting worse daily. What is the way out? Even the traditionalist dont cause this much trouble. Why must it be always xtians vs muslims? Are these the only religion in Nigeria that they keep killing each other. I just hope that the casualty is not much. |

Ajpharm: What is the way out? revert back to Traditional Religions. benifits: - All tribes will be united on religious grounds. -yet each tribe/ethnic group will maintain its own independence of identity. - it will wipe out our scars. -religious tolerance. - 0 extremism and religious terrorism. - 0 tithing and other such religious extortion. - saves our cultures and idenitities. -maintainance of strong National identity and tribal pride. - saving of environment and resources. -progress and development. -reduction of crimes: some religions such as Ifa Orisha, etc., do not permit liars to be initiated. doing so can have deadly consequences to the liar, due to the large number of oaths,etc., involved before the Spiritual Forces/ Gods. -etc . . 1 Like |

THE NEWS Taraba: 8 Die, 40 Injured in Wukari Religious Riot At least eight persons have been confirmed dead and over 40 others lying critically ill in various hospitals in Wukari, Taraba State, following a religious riot which broke out in the early hours of yesterday. The riot led to the disruption of traffic along the busy Jalingo-Katsina Ala road linking the South-eastern part of the country with the North-east. The crisis was said to have been ignited as a result of the siting of a mosque at the divisional police headquarters located in the local government council area headquarters complex. Piqued by the development, some Christian youths , according to the police commissioner, Aliyu Musa, who confirmed the story to journalists, embarked on the demolition of the mosque and this led to a reprisal action by other moslems, leading to massive destruction of lives and properties. Eye witness stated that the entire streets of Wukari have been deserted as a result of the violence and the people have began to seek refuge in the neighbouring towns and villages. "As I am talking to you now, the town is on fire. All schools and shops have been closed and most of our people have begun to move out of the town for safety" About five mosques and three churches, were said to have been set ablaze by the youths, believed to be armed to the teeth, chanting war songs. Fears are being expressed over the safety of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members presently camping in Wukari Local Government Council of the state for the three weeks orientation . Meanwhile, the Taraba State Police Command, has mobilised about three trucks of mobile policemen fully armed to the trouble zone which is about 220 kilometers from the state capital Confirming the development, the State Police Commissioner said “as you have just seen, about a unit of mobile and general duty policemen are now on their way to Wukari. “I am sending these mobile men there to increase the strength of the ones on ground so as to bring the situation under control.” 1 Like |

@Op, you guys (corp members) should leave those barbarians and fled for your dear lives tomorrow. To hell with NYSC. The truth is that, this isn't yet over, because there will be counter attacks from both parties and who bears the brunts? Your guess is as good as mine. Those mammals up north are the scum of this earth. Someone should tell them that this is 2013. 1 Like |
