Nigeria: Muslim Youths Allege Silent Killings in Jos

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Jos – The Plateau State chapter of the National Council of Muslim Youth Organizations (NACOMYO) yesterday complained over reported silent killings and missing persons in some parts of Jos, saying security agencies need to check the reports.

Addressing newsmen in Jos yesterday, the state coordinator of NACOMYO, Malam Sani Suleiman, called on the federal and state governments to improve the security apparatus, saying the situation needs to be checked to ensure security of lives and property in the state.

But the STF spokesperson, Captain Charles Ekeocha, said the security outfit was doing its best to ensure peace in the state, adding that there was the need for people to inform them of where such killings are taking place. The Muslim group further expressed displeasure over the call by the youth wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Plateau State on the Sultan of Sokoto Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar to apologize to the people of Plateau State over a comment credited to him.

The youth wing of CAN (YOWICAN) had earlier called on the sultan to apologize to the people of the state for blaming the leadership of the federal and state governments for not taking proactive measures over the bomb blasts in Jos. According to Malam Suleiman, not only the sultan, but several leaders have frowned at the failure of leadership.

“No good spirited person will deny the central role that leadership is supposed to play in mobilizing the populace for genuine reconciliation, healing and peaceful coexistence as witnessed in Kaduna, Niger, and recently in Wukari, Taraba State”, he said.
