In what qualifies as a dramatic scenerio, Nigerian pilgrims in Israel on Tuesday took to their heels as monks of the Church of the Nativity clashed in Bethlehem.

If these people don’t know how to organize pilgrimage, let them learn from the Muslims who are known to organize peaceful yearly assembly of about two million pilgrims. If our people did not get a good run-for-dear-life tutorial from home, something else could have happened to these good people of our great nation

I find it particularly delightful that the news is reported by "Punch on the Web".


But in all seriousness, this is nothing new. They fight every year over the sacred sights. Too many people make too many claims over jerusalem. Muslims versus christians, orthodox versus catholics, now pentecostalists are joining the fray.

That part of the world is just too incendiary. And to think it is called Jerusalem, "Foundation for Peace".

THE PUNCH HAS NO NEWS TO SALE AGAIN , NA WA FOR NIGERIA MEDIA WHEN WE HAVE A LOTS OF MOVIE TO COVERAGE HERE IN NIGERIA OR DON'T YOU KNOW THAT NIGERIA IS COUNTRY OF MILLION'S LAUGH

I like your post. You are a true son of nigeria as your statement has brought out the Nigerian mentality in you. Any publication that contradicts our interest is always tagged as nonsense. If Amnesty talks and it's against us, we call them names. Now, it's the turn of Punch. Why we no learn make we de call spade wetin he be.
