Jos Killings: TEKAN/ECWA Alleges Selective House Search, Arrest

Fellowship of Christian Churches of Nigeria TEKAN /ECWA bloc of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has decried selective house search and arrest being carried out against the natives by security operatives.

It noted that whenever there is government directive, security agencies proceed on a sham house search for weapons or any items, such are being carried among the natives who barely are able to defend themselves from their regular and aided attackers.

TEKAN/ECWA bloc leader, Rev Moses Ebuga and the secretary of the fellowship, Rev Mohammed Mainuh while addressing newsmen in Jos, Plateau State capital, said this development has further rendered the people helpless and more vulnerable in the face of house-to-house onslaught which has become their fate. They noted that the alleged killers, Fulani herders roam about with weapons strapped on their bodies in the open glare of the same security agencies and are treated as untouchables.

We wish to state categorically that self defence is a fundamental human right enshrined and protected by law and to this, we urge the government to be weary in invading the privacy of law abiding and peaceful citizens and harassing them and dispossessing them of even kitchen utensils,” they said.

They appealed to security agents in the state to be sincere and none partisan in the pursuit of their responsibilities, as it seems to favour a particular group. They also decried selective justice and imposition of grave injustice on the peace-loving communities’ in Plateau State, saying that it is highly unacceptable.

They further called on the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) to come to the aid of displaced people in the state by providing them with relief materials with a view to ameliorate their suffering.

maka why?

What happening in jos that the media isn't reporting?
Can someone be of help?

Hang them all terrorists bastards

Tekan/Ecwa should have known they are in for it, since Pantami said Buhari couldn’t eat over the killings of his kinsmen in Jos.

He will order the security to arrest all of them

Things have gone out of hand.
Things fall apart.

This is getting serious oooo

When they finish with one state they proceed to the other state and give futa jalonian investors the most fertile lands in same fashion. From Cameroon to Mali to Nigeria, it is the same story.

Hang them all terrorists bastards

says a Yoruba Muslim. Bayarben banza kwolokwolo. Who is not Worthy of leading Sallah.

We're you expecting a fulani task force to search and seize a fulani weapon before? Only a non/fulani task force will do that to a non fulani resident.

My problem is with the ethical educated South who always wants to be politically correct by speaking big Big grammars, while the allege illiterates continually enslaved them.

TEKAN/ECWA should stop appealing to the security agents. They are one and the same. In Sudan, the then government were using the supporter of APC militias to the the Jihad. They should defend themselves both against the Fulanis and the government.

They have a right to live, no government has the right to take another persons live except through the courts.
