Why crises in Jos? Who is responsible? Let us remove bias and all kinds of sentiments. Is Jos the only place where Muslims are in northern Nigeria? There are states like Katsina, Sokoto, Zamfara etc where Muslims constitutes 90-95% but there have never been such. Why? Long ago when military were ruling this country, there was no such frequent crises, but, now civilians are ruling the state.
My state, for example, is the most peaceful state in Nigeria. A place where religious crises (Muslims Christians) have never occured through out the history of its existence, and Muslims constitutes 90%. With more than 100 churches, my state capital is a peaceful place for all christians to worship without disturbance. In my state, there is no single place (particular area) which belongs to a particular group of people, (religious, cultural and what have you). We are all mixed together, intermingled together all the time. My best friend is Yoruba and I have many christian friends. The house at a direct opposite to mine belongs to christian. We all leave in peace and harmony, but, why Jos? Muslims are only 30% and Christians 70% in Jos. Let us be just to ourselves on this issue.
