^^^ why do you folks ask?Is it not the duty of the COAS or what are you saying?I know the GOC the presidency most times would like to settle for loyal generals to avoid a coup.It is important you have GOC,commanders and chiefs in your pocket while you are president.considering they flex the authority to commandeer the units.

^^^ Don't forget clinton said same thing and US ambassdor.Alot of other African political and social Analyst.Anyway as much as it is could be true,It is not a worthy excuse.I am from the North and working fine.If only education in the fields of science(ICT,medicine and technology was cultivated in the large populace we could move on.)

Don't know what to say.Why Nigerian leaders dey alway resist this SNC?Especially the PDP gang!! Please lets have this thing soonest considering that it is a milestone to seperation.In such a gathering without bloodletting we can say i no do and walk out with a peace resolution to split.GEJ with all due respect allow this thing take place i beg you.You try in some areas but this is critical to our survival as different entities.Please agree to this SNC or national conference.

Good work DSS and all those who truly helped o!Through information and prayers.Also those who motivated Nigerians and officers to stay and face the BH menace.Not those who are pedaling tribalising,sentiments,instigating and bigotry/fanatism.Also won't it be advicable to show the Images of qaqa and high profile Bh members to allow the public become weary and involved incase another escape stunt happens.Just saying.I don't see why they still remain faceless after all this years of trying to put a face to BH. kudos!!!
With that said we still are waiting for evidence to connect the fallacious dots and consipracy angle to the involvements of BUHARI !!!!

A Director with the Kaduna State Ministry of Information was yesterday shot by security operatives attached to the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House seat of the government, thereby causing confusion in and around Kaduna metropolis and sending speculations that the Boko Haram sect had attacked the place.

The victim, identified as Isuwa Kiforo, who is said to be the Director of Finance in the ministry, was said to have been shot by the security operatives when he attempted to force his way into the Government House, which serves as the residence and office of the governor.

Sources told The Nation that the director had come to the place, requesting to see the governor and was told by the security men that he had travelled to Abuja.

He was said to have reversed his car, giving the impression that he wanted to leave, only to attempt to force his way into the Government House, making the security operatives to open fire.

The source said he was forced to stop after the car’s rear tyres were deflated by the bullets. When he came out of the car he was hit in the stomach and leg.

The shooting of Kiforo, believed to be a pastor at the Living Faith Church in Kaduna, caused pandemonium in the metropolis as news immediately spread that unknown gunmen believed to be members of the Boko Haram had attacked the Government House.

All roads leading to the Government House were immediately cordoned off by heavily armed security men.

Our source, who is a senior government official, said the security men shot Kiforo when he refused to obey their order to stop, saying he is a director in the Ministry of Information.

“When the security men stopped him, he refused and they opened fire on him. They don’t know who he is and what his mission was. You should realise that even members of staff of the Government House go through this same security checks everyday.

“Even commissioners are not left out. You reporters, you know that anytime you come to the Government House, you pass through this same security check. No one can say why he refused to stop and so, they shot him in the leg and he was taken to the 44 Army Reference Hospital for treatment when he was identified as a worker of the state government.”

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Publicity, Reuben Buhari, confirmed the incident, saying, “my brother, we are in Abuja right now. But we heard what happened and I’m on my way to Kaduna. So I will get the details of what happened.

“What we heard was that the man tried to force his way into the Government House, refusing to stop when he was asked to stop. When we get the full briefing from the security people, I will get back to you.”

Officials of the 44 Army Reference Hospital located directly opposite the Government House refused journalists access to the hospital premises to speak with the victim.

Security in and around the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House seat of government in Kaduna had been tightened since the fuel subsidy strike when some youths attempted to gain entry into the Government House, and visitors to the Government House, including commissioners, permanent secretaries and appointees are subjected to security checks before being allowed into the place.

^^^^^ Easy story told as Boko haram attacking Kaduna Governor and government house.Kai Naija!!!!While facts emerging suggest the contrary.Kill person and call it BH and you go free as justified.Not minding verifications or facts.

Ddaji:
Contrary to speculations, the Ohaneze youth president in Kano State, Mr. Martin Igwe has said that there is no threat to the lives and property of Northerners in the South-East region. Igwe, who is also the spokesperson of the Free Al-Mustapha Youth Movement, told our correspondent in Owerri yesterday after he visited all the states in the zone to ensure that Northerners there are not being harassed or molested.

“I was in Onitsha before coming to Owerri, and I have been to Enugu and other states in the zone, and I want to confirm to you that there is no threat to the lives of Northerners in the South-east,” he said.

He maintained that the continuous stay of Northerners in the South-east region will add value to the economic development of the zone.

Igwe, who commended Northern governors for assisting victims of the bomb blasts, urged them to stop dealing with Igbo leaders, except the Ohaneze leadership.

He lamented that some of the financial assistants given to Igbo victims by some Northern governors do not get to the real victims.source:www.dailytrust.com

Okay o!I understand that those killed in Onistsha were nothing.I concur with your other statement but about Northerners at risk,I say it is true and that police shooting in Onitsha and the Asaba harassment confirms that.Also read your folks comment on NL over the incidence.

^^^ Fair enough but the evil breed politicians have succeeded in making you and i enemies.Alot of Nigerians are sniffing,eating and sleeping over this and believe its right.It takes two to tango.What is good for the goose is good for the gander.Split Nigeria is the way outta this thingy.

WAKU you rock and you are above stupidity, foolishness and lunacy !!! You have said it and you were never a hater of the middle belt nor the people of Benue.You have shown your exemplary qualities times without number.Why has the fools making noise never care to seek justice for the peoples of the Tiv apart from noise making and tribalism?You have done that for the love of your people abeg.Don't mind that non-entity jok or umyc who are @zz licking the Igbos and sucking up to get oil or scammed money.They know that a split Nigeria is sure to come and they are used to the lazy flow of oil money.trying to leach as usual to what may look like a sustainable host abi.
When they talk you wounder as if this fools were drag to war or as if they were not victims of the coup too.That triggered there active role.Saying the far north played little role is typical of hypocrites.Firstly they try to push the idea, the far north took major part in the war and they had little to do with it.While in another instances they were led to fight and die with little participation from the far north.If asked to leap into helll will you?Grow some balls and take responsibility.Even the Yorubas are not denying there role and they admit it was self defense, considering the Biafrans were advancing on there domain.Suggesting that Gowon was a puppet,TY danjuma too,Pam too home little has being said from them about being coerced.Always talking for them.The stupidness and over sniffing of the backside of the Igbos is making you guys high and silly.
The man WAKU has spoken and he has said it well even better than people calling themselves Northern leaders,whilst they are stooges for people with money and oil from the south.Today middle belt is complaining Hausa and tomorrow is struggle for xtianity.You are a bunch of lossers and its not a most that all must follow your views.Meanwhile my position is not against the MB in its totality but the few misguided elements and enemies of harmony in there ranks.Waku has a right to associate,choose and act in accordance with what he feels is his legal right.Talk all you want and then get use to the fact he doesnt share same views with you.Its simple.

Da infamous:
waku is trying to make things hard for the M/B sometimes i wonder the kind of drugs they prescribe for these people or is it old age??

^^^ See who is talking as if when the Benue policeman killed an Igbo man you were able to distinguish Tivs from Hausa in Onitsha!!!Abeg make we hear word joor.

Funny and surprising considering that a country like UK and USA don't waste time to sense and disrupt cash flow of any organization or individual once identified as for terrorist.Tell me UK did not know?This foreign nations na wa o!Even Saudi arabia royal family/leadership is a known supporter and implementation hand of the USA in regional affairs around Middle-east and Africa o!
It is also easy to lure our poverty stricken people or political harlots in to assisting to sale the nation or destroy it.Anywayz Naija enjoy.It maybe Iran self or Saudi or UK or Niger or Ghaddafi supporters!!!!

^^^^Why will they do that?If so same should be sent to OPC,MEND and APC!!!

after they were told that they would be paid by 20th to ease the subsidy issue!!!! Na wa o!I hope this is not true sha.

Kudos Waku nicely put.Let anyone not okay move simple.Let government do there work.Let GEJ name people and stop raising useless suspicion.Also why have the leaders not caution there own people against useless provocative comments but bother others only.charity begins at home.BH is a security challenge and FG issue to tackle.Stop politicizing the issue.Admit incompetence and stop deceiving tribal warriors with gimmicks to keep you afloat when you err.
That said,Let ACF also start looking towards splitting abeg.Talk it out loud and clear.Lets also have a SNC to suggest how to part.Tired of this bloody stupid crap.Stop suggesting unity while the others want out.Lets walk in that regards too.Just incase or because for me we are better off separated.

funny that he donated to kano.Funny GEJ visited Kano and Niger only over the issue of insecurity.yet very very suspicious that despite the figures in casualty and devastation recorded in Jos and Borno the president has not gone over to the states for first hand assessments!!The states represent the pinnacle of insecurity and crisis.Na PDP politics abeg.maybe GEJ went there and draw attention of FGN.While his lack of going to other worst hit states drew little considerations.
Also the donation is not meant for Hausas only but victims.Considering Igbos,Yoruba,federal officers(police,immigration etc),Hausas,PDP government etc. So i am sure this another PDP venture to better keep Kano state in the fold. cared for by there Able FGN-PDP buddies.Wonders shall never end.It is not tribal but issue of man know man.Issue of political party.Issue of godfather-ism.

sad but inevitable.

BlackPikiN:
Satan punish all the Emirs. I say it again F0rk all the Emirs!

Now I dnt intend to go round with all your idle talk.
Tell me when the SE have gone around town to cause mayhem to the northerners living with them.
There have been tonnes of assault on the SE community living peacefully in the north, but the SE have continued to act dumb.

So the Emirs are doing their job when they allow all the almajiri to kill every Igbo man.

Finally, thunder fire the sultan to the least Emir!

Like wise your stupid occultic demented okija breed and corpse like igwes ,obi and ezes. may they burn and be roasted a million times in hell. Those bunch of retards, ritualist that sacrifcise and mastermind kidnappeings of there own citizens for money and blood.

After much the policeman is Samuel ojana. NA wah o!this stupid Igbo touts and the massob leader don go unleash mayhem on the wrong persons.anyway they always hoped and wanted to do something like that since.needed a reason only that they got false alarm.inyamiri and wahalah.a I make person back some Igbo here see!

13volts,its not a mistake my brother.the rumors they have fed on and chewed on has given them this reason to do all this.its also not a mistake that they wanted to do this since.no be today.so the reason they sort came as a rumor and they acted blindly without a just cause.no be today the blame start and u can see where such extreme'I be victim syndrome has taken them'.even the massob leader acted and made comments suggesting bok haram.hmmmmmm! Northerners leave SE for gud o! NA from one story to another until this people will declare war over rumors and deceptions o!

For me the Northern folks over there have decided to stay and look for material things in the SE and as such know the dangers.So if they decided to stay,they may as well be ready to dance to the music.The writing is on the wall.It is not today and it is not tomorrow the SE has the intention to do this and all they have being looking for is the excuse.IF not na today police begin kill people for Nigeria?Na today police of different belief and tribe kill innocent people over money or some silly reasons,in custody or on the street?Na today e start?
Any Northerner that can not find his square root home has signed his death warrant long before abeggiiii!!!!! Na small,small we dey reach the place one reason after another.I don't see when in Nigeria a policeman action is turned tribal.Except in this case.Note in the write up it has a different agenda and this policeman na excuse.In between sha, MASSOB lead you try.Your position is good and may have prevented any escalation in Onitsha and beyond.Hate to see people go to waste.

Well,na my eye abi na pink you put for boko haram?

Well if he is in PDP.I don tire to dey vote opposition.I nefa vote PDP before.I want to FEEL IT o!!!!!!!!Why i go dey suffer where i no vote.Make i just vote PDP know say i deserve it abeg!!!!

From the placards is seems there problem is using eminent people to hold a mini sort of conference rather than have an all inclusive and wider national SNC.They seem to suggest SNC than this mini gathering with little significance.

Jos: The Killings Continue
Published on September 13, 2011 by TheNEWS · 1 Comment



Jos, capital of Plateau State, witnesses another inter-ethnic crisis, leading to deaths and destructiom


Several cars burnt at the Rukuba prayer ground.

Many people had thought the battle for supremacy between the Hausa-Fulani Muslims, often referred to as settlers, and Berom natives in Jos was over, after the re-election of Governor Jonah Jang. But the relative peace that Plateau residents enjoyed in the last three months suffered a severe setback on Monday 29 August, when groups of Muslim and Christian youths clashed along Rukuba Road.
The attack which introduced a new, unhealthy dimension to the protracted violence in Plateau State was launched by some Christian youths who insisted that the Muslims must not use the Rukuba Road mosque for prayers any longer. But the Sheikh Mohammad Yahaya Jengre-led Izala group defied all warnings and went ahead to pray at the mosque on the Monday the violence erupted. Yahaya’s refusal to heed the warnings provoked the Christian youths, who engaged the Muslims in a bloody clash.

Eyewitnesses painted gory pictures of human beings slaughtered like rams, vehicles and motorcycles burnt and sophisticated weapons freely used. The clash at Rukuba Road did not only claim hundreds of lives, including women and children, it also ignited deeper hatred and acrimony between the two groups.
So, it was not unexpected that within 24 hours of the bloody violence, reprisal attacks led to the gruesome murder of over 20 people, including a family of eight killed at Berom-dominated Tatu village near Heipang, Barkin Ladi Local Government Area. Some people interviewed at the affected village claimed that the attack was carried out by armed Fulani herdsmen. And at about 2 a.m., on Tuesday 30 August, another attack was carried out at Babale and Kuru villages simultaneously. This time, another family of seven, and four other people, were killed. Bulus Gyang, a Berom whose brother was killed, alleged that the Fulani again carried out the attack. The killings in the state continue, selectively and silently.

The two main religious bodies in the state, Jama’atu Nasril Islam, JNI, and Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, confirmed the silent killings. Reverend Philip Dafes, CAN chairman and Head of Christian Council of Nigeria, Plateau Chapter, told this magazine that Jos has become a place where no Muslim dares go into a Christian-dominated area and would not be killed. In the same manner, Christians dare not encroach on a Muslim-dominated area; such a person will not come out alive.

Spokesman of the Plateau Muslim Ulama Council, Sheikh Balarabe Dawud, in a statement raised an alarm that there were killings in some parts of Jos on a daily basis. He noted that Muslims are killed on some roads leading to the state and within the state. According to him, the roads are death traps and nobody is doing anything about it.

Areas such as Ungwar Rogo, Bauchi Road and other Muslim areas around Jos North have become no-go areas for Christians. While Vom, Barkin Ladi, Kuru and other parts within Jos South are dead zones for Muslims.

The situation continues to get worse, to the extent that last week, the warring Muslims and Christians, deserted their places of worship on Friday and Sunday respectively, out of grave fear of either side attacking the other. What pervades the air is the rumour that either the Berom will launch attack on the Fulani or the Hausa Muslim have invited members of the dreaded Boko Haram to avenge the Monday attack on the Izala Muslim sect.

In the heat of these unwaranted killings and wanton destruction of valuable property, the Chief Security Officer of the state, Governor David Jonah Jang has been out of the country. Information from Abraham Yiljap, Plateau Information Commissioner, has it that Jang travelled overseas for a routine medical check up. Others said he was flown abroad for treatment of an undisclosed terminal disease, without handing over to his deputy. Perhaps, this explains why the security operatives were left with no option than to allow the killings and fighting to continue without any stiff security measures to stop them.



The series of attacks without security intervention between Friday 2 September and Tuesday 6 September have heightened tension in the state, to the extent that most banks and several business premises were forced to close until Wednesday 8 September, when they reopened after relative calm returned to the city.

Having lost confidence in the combined team of soldiers and police, the youth on both sides have taken up the responsibility of securing themselves. They have embarked on a round-the-clock vigil to ensure that either side was not caught unawares by assailants who usually attack anytime from 2 a.m.

But the sad part of this is the ruthless stop-and-search operations carried out on vehicles traveling on Jos-Kaduna Road, Saminaka-Jos Road, Bauchi-Jos Road, and Abuja-Jos Road. Whoever does not belong to an identified group is killed and buried instantly. The situation in Jos as at the time of filing this report could be described as the case of “an eye for an eye” or “a life for a life”. Once a group strikes today, the other swiftly retaliates.

Ironically, every major road and area identified as a flash point in the state has a sizeable number of armed soldiers, military and regular police personnel stationed there. But this has neither stopped violence from erupting nor assailants from carrying out the recurrent attacks in any of the areas. It appears the Special Military Task Force and Police are tired and bereft of constructive ideas on the kind of action or security measures to take to put an end to the killings.

What this magazine discovered as most worrisome is the porous security measures put in place by the state government. Mohammed Ibrahim, an Hausa-Fulani resident of Jos, narrated that as killings continue unabated, the best the soldiers and police could do is to mount road blocks and harass innocent passers-by under the guise of stop and search. A victim of such harassment, Bayo Alabira, the Plateau correspondent of The People’s Daily newspaper, said he was severely beaten by the soldiers. Alabira said he could not understand why the soldiers rough-handled him without any provocation. According to him, he left his house and was heading to the Nigerian Union of Journalists Secretariat along Joseph Gomwalk Road, when he was intercepted and asked to present his identity card, which he forgot at home. At this point, the soldiers did not wait to hear his explanation, when they pounced on him. “Allah rescued me from their hands,” Alabira said.

With the soldiers unleashing terror on innocent citizens, Plateau State has become a place where inhabitants no longer sleep with their two eyes closed. The recurring attacks by the warring Christian Jos natives and Hausa-Fulani Muslims have seriously heightened tension in the state. While none of the groups agrees on who is responsible for the fresh violence and frequent reprisal attacks, tongues continue to wag that there is no hope for reconciliation.

Barrister Mohammed Lawal Ishaq is the Secretary of the Plateau Muslim Ulamas. He refuted the allegation by CAN that the Hausa-Fulani Muslims should be held responsible. Rather, Ishaq said, Christians should be blamed as they usually are the first to attack. “The Christians have pushed the Plateau Muslims to the wall and that is why we have these attacks and reprisal attacks,” Ishaq posited.

In the same vein, the Plateau CAN chairman, Rev Dafes, alleged that if Muslims did not attack, no Christian would wake up and say the next thing to do is to attack Muslims, who have not done anything to them. “Christians are peace loving people and we don’t cause trouble,” Dafes reiterated.

But in the quest to find out what is responsible for the frequent crises in the state, this magazine reliably gathered that there are basically two issues. First, the alleged plans by the Berom to capture Jos North and control the area, which is the economic base of the state. Secondly, the Fulani accuse the Berom, who have the largest population in the state, of killing their cherished cows. The religious coloration was a later development. The initial crises were political and ethnic in nature, but with the external support from religious interest groups outside the state, it has assumed ethno-religious dimensions, making it difficult to resolve. Little wonder, that the likes of Senator Kabir Gaya and Muslim Ulama are clamouring for imposition of a state of emergency on the state. They cited as reason the failure of Governor Jang to stop the killings.

Though crisis started rocking the state in 1991, it was just political until it degenerated into ethnic and religious killings after the November 2008 local government elections. When Jang took over as governor in 2007, there was hope that he would create a better platform for peaceful co-existence, having criticised the former governor, Joshua Dariye for lack of focus and political will to curb or manage the crises that rocked his government. However, Jang’s emergence has not doused the crises; instead, it has worsened the acrimony between the so-called settler Hausa-Fulani, who are mostly domiciled in Jos North and the Berom who predominantly occupy Jos South. Several crises have erupted under Jang’s administration, with little effort to solve them.

Other reasons are lack of provision of social amenities, ethnic-based appointments and alleged imposition of a Berom native as the Council Chairman of Hausa-Fulani-dominated Jos North Local Government Area.

Former FCT Minister, Gen. Jeremiah Useni, was blunt in blaming Jang for giving room to selfish policies that carry only few natives along.

Dr. Bawa Abdullahi Wase, a Fulani and Chairman, Plateau Christian -Muslim Dialogue Forum, observed lack of implementation of recommendations in previous reports released by investigative panels set up and failure to punish those involved as serious reasons why the killings will continue.

But the Plateau Information Commissioner, Abraham Yiljap, disagreed with Jang’s critics. For him, all the security agencies in the state are controlled by the federal government. He therefore submitted that rather than blame Jang, the federal government should be blamed.

Yiljap assured that the crises in Plateau will soon become history because government was working hard at fashioning a sustainable strategy for security and reconciliation through dialogue,. The crises, according to him, were a creation of some people who had an agenda to make the state volatile and unattractive for investors and business.

But some residents told TheNEWS that they heard similar promises in the past, which were not backed with action. For lasting peace to reign, Wase suggested proactive peace initiatives as a way out of the incessant crises between Muslims and Christians in the state. Many others also suggested strong security measures and setting up of a reconciliation panel comprising balanced membership.

However, changing the Muslim Special Task Force commander with a Christian, and with the renewed promise by the Police to maintain law and order, there might be relative peace. But the threats of attack emanating from both camps might as well jeopardise this security and peace initiative.

^^^^ Well thank the fulani for waasting no time in balancing the equation.Also we know they atleast did not feed on any dirty corpse.Just simple hits to hammer the word.An eye for an Eye.

@violent
If you are a xtian that even makes it easy for you find out.Secondly find out what religion is a majority for the beroms and why has the crisis become more religious than tribal?When you say middle belt i laugh.This same mob may have roasted a muslim middle-belter in does fires and fed on him.They don't ask and they don't care if they stop you the first thing they use to distinguish friend from foe is questions about the bible or what church you attend.Once they are convinced they then let you go else you are enemy.So please stop being naive and use your head.About the numbers stop creating excuses for them.Its not one they were attacked in numbers.if you know what Eid is you tell by the number of worshipers that pour in.Lastly the survivors are still alive.Funny no media or committee will even ask them.If you understand Hausa.You could understand there joy at the numbers killed and the carnage they caused.lastly you could hear them encourage each other to feed on the bodies.

@DRANOEL
deny it all you want.I can assure you that the crowd will be made up of different tribes.While the bulk consist of Beroms.Yet they have one thing in common,that is they are fighting a religious campaign under the banner of xtianity.So stop defending this poo.Its 100% granted religious(xtian).All you need to do is go to Jos and clear your head.attend church a little or mosque and you can see the engine running and fanning the chaos.The place worship are now used to co-ordinate youths and direct them on how to kill.

If you watch the video clearly some of them actually captured Policemen just looking and allowing them feed on this charred bodies.They didn't see it fit,Even where  they could not prevent the killing to arrest the people cannibalizing on the bodies and mutilating them.
The whole story is sad.People to blame include the security,community and religious leaders.The media also down played it.The figures were about 50 to 70 suspected to be killed.More than 50 vehicles and motorcycles destroyed.
All this happened after meetings,assurances of normalcy and words of peace.All this happened after the state had witness over 2 months of relative peace.Only for this to happen.They actually told Muslims they would do this and Muslims were also told to be weary.The Imam who believe all is normal caused the incidence believing all was in the past and led this faithfuls to there death.From all indications security never thought they were to be protected.Actually when the attack started they only watched as they cycled the worshipers and killed them.Some escape only when the security in the last minutes created exit routes for them.This is not the only incidence.After this incidence the fulanis then started a campaign of attacks that killed 13 beroms in riyom and before you know it government and all is shouting foul.
If you have heard of Kuru karama.Muslims Killed total 150.Including families and non was safe.This same incidence attracted condemnation from the US and EU.Till date no single traditional ruler or Gbong gwon has deem it fit to check and say words to calm people.Until now its only the Solomon lar committee set up by GEJ that has gone to this site and seen the ruins.The massacre happen and i will only ask you read amnesty report about it.Police took part in killing the inhabitants even after telling them to stay is safe.A pastor who witness the killings plead for mercy and the militia beat him blue.Immediately dogo na hawa happened you could see them shouting "mans inhumanity to man".This is the way in Jos.This people are all mad and inhumane to each other.While they are at it they still want legitimacy in carrying evil and condemnation to there rivals deeds.
The reason peace will be hard to achieve.today it can be muslims, tomorrow it can be xtians.yet the blaming is bias.

well,The few people i have spoken to in Adamawa seem to vote along religious/tribal lines than based on the party and the qualities of the person.The ACN fronted a xtian candidate and the xtians mainly voted in there areas for him en-mass.Like wise the Muslims for Nyako.Marwa lost out Because it is clear a split in votes could favour other side.In the equation he marwa is minority and Muslim.Giving way to Nyako same faith but different tribe.While Minorities will support ACN for tribe and xtians would also support him too.So my take is tribal and religious views made the people vote.I can assure you that if you check the LGAs you could pick the reasons plainly.Issue of minority vs majority and religion.Its not largely party !!!!!
