Barely a week after the gory massacre of 500 souls in Jos, Plateau State, some Islamic fundamentalists are again at work to stage a similar pogrom on Christians in Ibadan, Oyo State capital.
Daily Sun investigation shows that some people have been distributing and dropping anonymous and inciting leaflets, calling for Jihad and attacks on Christians, in mosques within the volatile capital city and its environs.

Aside of this is emergence of a fanatical Islamic sect in Beree, a suburb of Ibadan in Oluyole Local Government Area, which is now under close watch of security agencies in the state due to its intolerance of other religious groups in the area.

The group was said to have established a village called ‘Madina’ about six years ago, where its followers camped.
It was learnt that the group was fond of destroying and defacing Christian crusade/revival posters in public.
Last Thursday, the extremists were also said to have threatened to attack Ogun (god of iron) worshipers in the community while the latter were celebrating their festival.
It took the intervention of elders of the community to pacify them and put the situation under control.
A police source told Daily Sun that the command has set up a dragnet for the group’s leader.
One of the inciting leaflets circulating in mosques urged Muslims to rise up against Christians in a holy war on the ground that they were losing their brethren to Christianity.
It said the attack must be carried out on a Sunday when their targets would be in church to worship.
One of the grouses of the author of the leaflet is that the ‘most educated’ Nigerians and ‘hypocrites’ in the country are Christians.
The leaflet writer regretted that Muslims in the southern part of the country had not been as militant as their counterparts in the North, stressing that they must now take a cue from past Jihadists in Kano and other northern states.
Intelligence reports on the development, Daily Sun learnt, was responsible for an emergency meeting the state Commissioner of Police, Adisa Bolanta, had with leaders of religious groups in the state last week.
At the meeting were: Rev. Bola Ajibike, who represented the Chairman of the State Chapter of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN); Archbishop Akinfenwa; leader, National Council of Muslim Youth Organizations (NACOMYO) Alhaji Kunle Sanni; Dr. Dawood Alaga; Serikin Hausawa and representative of the Chief Imam of Ibadan, Alhaji Busari Suara.
The police boss was said to have intimated them on the existence of the hate letters and warned them against acts that could cause disharmony and crisis within the state.
Daily Sun learnt that the Muslim delegation complained about a certain Christian home video, featuring a Muslim called ‘Alfa Sule,’ it claimed, was provocative.
To this, the CAN leaders were said to have declared the body’s efforts at disciplining its erring members but called for maturity on the part of viewers of such productions.
The police commissioner calmed frayed nerves but reminded the meeting of constitutional freedom of expression and worship.
He, however, promised to request the film censor board to look into the complaint, adding that the video producer would be invited and cautioned.
The meeting ended with a resolution for the setting up of an inter-faith committee to meet quarterly to resolve issues of conflicts that could breach public peace

Please what is the name of the movie and where can i find it ?
Re: Beware Islamic Republic Uncovered In Ibadan by Bishopking: 9:20am On Mar 11, 2010
we sure need to watch this alfa sule film. Must be very informative.
Beere is known for backwardness! It is therefore not a surprise that the 'would-be' jihadist are busy scheming against more advanced citizens. This obviously is a war of envy.

NO. NO. NO. NO, IT SHOULD BE CLEARLY STATED THAT JESUS CHRIST (ASW) IS A PROPPHET OF ISLAM. WHOEVER DOES NOT BELIEVE HIM AS A PROPHET CANNOT BE A MUSLIM. . . SO ANY MUSLIM WILL NOT OR CAN NOT PARTAKE IN ANY ACT OR FILM CALCULATED AT DEFAMING HIM OR CHRISTAINS. MUSLIMS & CHRISTAINS ARE BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

WE ARE SO INTER-WOVEN ESPECIALLY IN THIS YORUBA LAND. THERE IS HARDLY ANY 'WHOLLY' MUSLIM OR CHRISTAIN FAMILY. I DO NOT THINK ANY SERIOUS FIGHTING CAN EVER HAPPEN HERE.

IN ORDER TO REALLY SOLVE THE LOOMING AGITATIONS, I URGE HIS EXCELLENCY GOVERNOR ALAO AKALA TO ARREST THE SITUATION IMMEDIATELY. THOSE WHO PRODUCED THE FILM SHOULD BE CAUTIONED AND THE FILMED 'BANNED' FROM FURTHER DISTRIBUTION OR CIRCULATION. THE MUSLIMS SHOULD LIKEWISE BE CAUTIONED NOT TO EVER ENGAGE IN ANY FIGHTING. THEY SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT ISLAM MEANS PEACE AND THEREFORE BE PEACEFUL ALWAYS.

Muslims with no jobs and education reads the Quran, saw the will of Allah in the Quran which doesn't want any infidel. The Muslim with no job, no girl friend or kids or wife do as Allah says cause his life is worthless anyways. Now they'll bring it to Yoruba land?

Have you read the book "World Famous Cults and Fanatics"? It is a little booklet, but one of the funniest and most entertaining I have read. It looks at how religion from the 14th century is used a man for gain. Colin wilson is the Author.

Chei, Chineke me! shocked

This cannot happen in Yorubaland. Yorubaland is filled with the moderate Muslim, not the radical extremist found up north.

Yorubas need to get their house in order, as we look for separation between the North and the South. Do not be the weakest link again.
Re: Beware Islamic Republic Uncovered In Ibadan by SpiralEx(m): 4:32pm On Mar 11, 2010
I am not surprised that this is happening to the Yorubas.
The jos crises that every one is complaining of has a death toll of less than 600. The 1966 pogrom had a death toll of 30,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the midst of this, the COWARDLY yorubas still licked the ass of their hausa overlords and decided to join hands in killing the Igbos in the Biafran war.
Up till date, the SE, SS and middle belt have called for secession directly or indirectly. THE SW HAS NEVER UTTERRED ANY STATEMENT THAT IS AGAINT THE ACTION OF THEIR HAUSA OVERLORDS.
COWARDSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It may be nice of the SE, SS secede and force the SW to remain with the north since they love them so much and cannot stand for what is wrong.

No, I haven't read the book. But you are quite right, religion is a tool of the powerful to manipulate the minds of the vulnerable and weak. At times like this, I pity religous people.

There is no contradiction.
No muslim who knows what he is doing will EVER defame Jesus. Of course if a christian criticises Islam, the Muslim will also point out the shotcomings of christainity to him

As regards killing christians, I am not so sure that it is that simple.
Will a muslim just go around and look for christians to kill?
They must have been some cause for animosity between them
Afterall, muslims do fight themselves and I if 1 kills the other, religion is not really the issue, but the emotion of human beings
Christians kill themselves too afterall, otherwise there would be no case of murder in igboland!
Come to think of it, christains feel free to abuse our Prophet and Allah
But I can never NEVER abuse Jesus Christ. It is actually a sin for me to do that
Muslims feel offended when christians go about abusing Allah and the Prophet

Imagine how you would feel if somebody abuses your father
What muslims feel is stronger than that

By the way, no knowledgeable muslim will kill a woman or a child
I am not sure if chrsitians have that restraint when they have cause to fight

No matter how much wrong is done in his name by one of your siblings?

Why is it that Christians circulate fake information about Islam?
And also publish fake Quran

Do you think that will actually encourage me to believe that my salvation lies in Christianity?

It is good to research and know what u serve and not just allow sometin passed down to u without questioning it. This is why Boko Haram consist to destroy quest and search and reasoning. Just to accept everytin like almajiri or Taliban.
And talking about killing women and children. How wonderfully u guys performed in Jos environs. Allahmajiris

Dear truly,

Does your response apply to occasions in which muslims arise and kill christians and other non-muslims without prior personal scuffles or due provocation, as we see in the Boko Haram and ISIS scourges? In fact, an aunt of mine, has once been victim of some of an unprovoked attack by muslims she knew personally and was very close to (all because of her personal choice about how she wanted to live her life).

Your response does directly condemn muslims that disrespect/desecrate the personality of Jesus but it does not even indirectly condemn muslims that carry out unprovoked attacks on non-muslims. Does this mean that it is part of your personal belief, as a muslim, that "it is the responsibility of muslims to kill kaffirs (non-muslims) as a means of furthering your religion"?

The last four lines of your response highlights how strongly a muslim feels when your religious deity, personalities and articles are disrespected/desecrated and I understand that you guys feel strongly about these but do you think it's the right of a muslim to kill or maim the person that carried out the sacrilege? (Remember that one man's meat is another man's poison and that Sango worshipper might deem you worthy of death, in his own view, for doing certain things he considers sacrilegious to his god(s) using the same logic).

Although, there are verses in the Koran in which violence against non-muslims was advocated, a lot of muslims have often done the reasonable by pointing out other verses that advocated non-violence and peace with other people regardless of their religious (or non-religious) creed.

If you wanted peace for Nigeria and the world, you would do well to point out the verses that advocated non-violence, live by the principles in those verses and use it to enlighten other muslims.

It's good to sometimes put yourself in the shoes of the victims. Just imagine yourself being hounded by some Christians or some Amadioha/Sango/Ogun etc worshipper just because your refused to be a member and to participate in their religious rites!!!!! Or maybe some atheists want to subject you to a very gruesome and slow death just for the fact that you believe in a God.
