We have been busy heating up the polity with fake news, fake alarms etc.

with time you will realize that total freedom is in itself danger. Freedom of speech when abused can cause a war. When they the government launched say no to hate speech, they thought it was right infringement, when their family falls victim, they will know. Only the victims can tell

Those of you saying the report is too long for you to read. Must you showcase your lack of reading capacity? This is something you should be ashamed of! You want to lead tomorrow, but you are not willing to read?

The Chinese are very smart people. They have strict restrictions on social media and religious extremism. They are very sensitive to nonsense.
Capitalist westerners will call it human rights abuses. You don't sacrifice lives on the altar of money.

Very true, they will twist every story to make them appear as victims and when confronted with the evils perpetrated by Christians, they turn their heads away from the killings and murders carried out by their own people. Oyedepo, Johnson Suleiman, CAN, Ben Bruce will all keep quiet, horrifying silence. Worse, they will take pictures of killed Fulani/Muslims and claim those killed were Christians, or bring in old accident scenes and claim Fulani herdsmen killed them. Ozugbulu, Don Waney and many more were blamed on Fulani herdsmen. Manipulative and evil people eating human flesh.

Wiping is a strong term that shouldn't be encouraged but truth be told, Berom Christians are special class of killers, barbarians and cannibals.

There is no nationally or internationally recognised Berom terror group. And while Berom people have committed killings during Plateau State’s crisis, the Berom people as a whole are not engaged in violence.

A massacre did happen in Gashish that weekend. Somewhere between 86 and 238 Berom people were killed between 22 and 24 June, according to estimates made by the police and by local community leaders.
But some of the most incendiary images circulating at the time had nothing to do with the violence in Gashish.

The above part made me happy because the berom reprisal was vindicated here.

We all know core northerners (Muslim / Fulanis) control the defence apparatus in Nigeria and they are ready to use it to silence others and shield their own.
This makes it almost impossible to access authentic images of the massacre as survivors are always running for their lives or security operatives are always drafted in after these attack. In this case any right thinking berom will be ready to fill in the gap of missing images with other images from African nations in order to spark a justified reprisal.

If BBC wants to do a balanced report here they should also cover the dirty politics of security operatives taking sides with the aggressors.

Anything short of the last paragraph is propaganda from Abuja forces.
