On A Second Thought Are Southern Muslims Too Safe. In The North by gbadexy(m): 8:50am On Jun 23, 2012
The popular belief is that the northern muslims don't see we southern muslims as true muslims, some even allege that they don't pray behind a southerner's back.
In light of this, I now wonder that what would the fate of the southern muslims caught in the midst of rampaging violent muslim mob be, since they don't really see them as muslims, would they be spared or be the first victim.
Knowing that even a southern muslim won't be spared by the christian militias in places like kaduna, wouldn't it be double jeopardy for the southern muslims in the north if it so happens that they are game to the abokis too?

When the chips are down,southern muslims in the north are always treated thesame way as christians( both northern and southern) in the north.even during religious crises in the north,your tribal identity still plays a big role in determining how you are treated in the north,the threats you face,the outcome of the crises and how it eventually plays out.

They are not safe in the north, just as southern Christians.

when i was n Rock-Haven n Jos, there was a muslim yoruba family frm Ogun state living there. after d crises of 2001 they were still there, nobody molested them and they dare nt move to Angwa-Rogo, an Hausa community n Jos! After 2008 crises the Rock-Haven community insisted they must leave, now they are in Lagos, after selling their house in Jos.

Southern muslims particularly Yoruba muslims are not safe in the northern religious crisis, they are regarded as hypocrites and kaffir and thus treated as unbelivers.
