NewsRescue- Jos, is one of the greatest epicenters of Muslim-Christian hate and intolerance in Nigeria. Roughly torn between Muslims and Christians, it is at the epicenter of sectarian violence.
North Nigeria as a whole is stricken with some of the highest poverty levels in the world. With a 70-89% poverty level, this region compares with countries like Somalia, Eritrea and Bangladesh, while in contrast, South Nigeria, responsible for 90% of Nigeria’s bank deposits and loans, compares economically to countries like China and Korea. Due to the poverty prevalence figures, Nigeria’s former Central bank governor, Professor Soludo rightly concluded that the nation’s “very high level of poverty is essentially a Northern Phenomenon”

Birom Christian youth burn cars and eat Muslims {NaijaPals}
It is well known that poverty, ignorance and disease are a dangerous triad. This deadly ignorance was again demonstrated on the 28th of August; Birom (Berom) Christians were recorded in these videos, eating Muslims they had killed and roasted. The event occurred when Christians surrounded Muslims observing their Eid annual holy devotion. Due to a miscommunication with the police, there was no usual requested security at the venue, a necessity in polar Jos. Christian youth surrounded the praying Muslims, burned their cars, pelted them and then killed, roasted and ate some.

Zainab Usman, translating the video said:
At a point as the flesh is being roasted, someone says in Hausa language “…ni zuciyan na ke so…” meaning: “I want the heart”, while another person goes further to ask “…ka sa gishiri?” meaning: “…did you put some salt”?
Jos Cannibal youth eating roasted man; human flesh censored
The large crowd’s visible complicity and excitement as they eagerly anticipate their cannibalistic feast marks a descent in our collective sense of humanity in Nigeria. What I find most ironic is that these butchers and party are communicating in Hausa language, the language of their slain “enemy” or rather, their “meal” and not their own native berom language. The presence of a police vehicle in the area where the “feasting” and cannibalism on slaughtered Muslims is taking place raises questions. The police should be protecting people, maintaining law and order and stopping any criminal activity from taking place, shouldn’t they? Of course as the video shows, this is not the case.

BBC reporter captured an episode of Cannibalism, earlier in April, 2011, after hearing stories that it had been going on. The report also investigates the sectarian violence and segregation in Jos; at 11 minutes, BBC’s Rob Walker witnesses roasted Muslims being eaten {Audio link- click here}. Transcript of this audio is appended below.
Not a single prosecution!- BBC
There is no record of a single successful prosecution related to these heinous crimes. This impunity for acts of violence helps explain why the cycle of revenge and counter-revenge has continued.
Ethnic violence is apparently not a crime in Nigeria. In fact, in this video, the police are seen literally being part of the Sapien flesh festival.

Social welfare system, the simple solution
Essentially in all industrialized nations, and a fundamental principle of existence, preached by the prophet of Islam and observed from the life of Jesus, is the social welfare system. Societies must provide for its citizens who do not have jobs and the ability or know-how to feed themselves. Men are not made equal in capacity. The wealthy must be taxed to feed the poor, and then there is natural resource. With the level of wealth of Nigeria, a world major oil exporter, a method of social identity and a comprehensive welfare system should have long been in place. Yes, just food money. In the US it is called ‘food stamps’. Stop the food stamps and there will be terrorism and anarchy.

The fight for land between farmers and cattle-rearers – with increased urbanization, fuels sectarian crises. Government needs address grazing issues. Politicians also create and sponsor inter-cultural violence and terror to control wards. Do-or-kill politics is a serious issue in Africa. Related: Democracy Fails Africa
There must also be accountability and culpability for criminality, with an effective, efficient and respectable security system. These issues must be addressed by the government, however Nigeria’s government is so entrenched in corruption and the personal usurping of Nigeria’s wealth, that they have left conditions beyond words.

BBC broadcast transcript of April Cannibalism episode:
At 12 minutes, several of them clearly admitted to eating (chopping) the pieces of roasted human flesh he saw with them that they brought home to the Christian sector. They were very happy and glad in their expression. Certainly cannibalistic.
Rob: This is the christian community here, and there is a very large group of people gathered….that is the army firing in the air, stones are being thrown, rocks are being thrown. Crowd is now dispersing rapidly. Rob: What about this body here, who is this body here?
Christian 1.Yah, This is Muslim body….people that brought the bomb?
Christian 1.Yah, This is Muslim body….people that brought the bomb?
Rob: So you are saying this body which is being burned is People that brought the bomb?
Christian 1: Yah, yah, that is the body.
Rob: But there is no legs or arm or head…
Christian 1: We are chopping the meat, we are chopping the meat!
Christian Lady: some eat
Christian 2:And some…eat it
Christian Lady: some eat
Christian 2:And some…eat it
Birom Christians roasting their victims to eat
Christian Lady: And some of it eat
Christian 1: We eat it
Christian 3: We eat the meat!
Rob: Some of the people here eat it?
Christian 1: Yes
Christian 2: Really, really!
Christian 2: Really, really!
Rob: But why will you do that, why will you eat the meat
Christian 1: Why will we not chop the meat?
Christian 1: We need to fight them
Christian 2: Why won’t we chop it
Christian 3: That’s why we chop it.
Christian 1: Why will we not chop the meat?
Christian 1: We need to fight them
Christian 2: Why won’t we chop it
Christian 3: That’s why we chop it.
Rob: There is a man now with a part of the body on a stake, he raised it up. Will there be peace now?
….Christians:…..the Hausa doesn’t want peace…we want the soldier to go, we need peace, Rob: but the soldiers protect…. Christians: the soldiers should go let the battle be once and forever…..
Rob: Reports of isolated cases like this of Christian youth burning and eating the flesh of their enemies emerged in in Jos 3 months ago. Some residents say it is a means of humiliating opponents. Others say it is a way of binding together those involved in the violence. Whatever the case it gives you some idea of the extremes of the violence here. The police say they weren’t sure who the target of the bomb attack. What is sure is if it wasn’t for the heavy presence of the Nigerian army, the violence will be much worse here.
Finally he goes to a noble community in Jos where Muslims and Christians live in peace, cooperate and protect each other, and they explain that the prevalence of violence and rioting in other areas is likely politically motivated by politicians who live in secure, rich areas and set up these ignorance and poverty clashes. They said it may be Christians pretending to be Muslims bombing Christians and likewise Muslims pretending to be Christians bombing Muslims, all as agents of wicked politicians, acting under the umbrella of religion and taking advantage of the poverty in the region.. …The politicians push out opponents in their area for instance with these attacks, so they can win elections.
A resident of Shen in Jos, an area rift with violence, Dogo Yahya commented: Jesus recommended turning the other cheek, and the Muslim Quran says- whoever takes an innocent life, it’s as though has killed the entire human race, and whoever saves a life, it’s comparable to saving the entire world. These people who do these on both sides are neither Muslims, nor Christians! They…. workers of iniquity!
Reconciliatory foundation
Nigerians should compete in doing good
The Muslim Quran, in chapter 5:48 says what means:
To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah(The Lord) willed, He would have made you one nation [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so Vie, then with one another in doing good works. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ.
The Christian Bible also clearly encourages peace, tolerance and forgiveness. We at NewsRescue encourage Nigerians to embrace a war of righteousness with weapons of peace, love and compassion.

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MIX POLITICAL ISSUES WITH RELIGION… THE TWO JUST CANT GO TOGETHER.
I disagree that those youths are christains. The holy book frown seriously against killing and no serious christain will involve himself in such act. christains believe in the sactity of life. Thats why muslims attack and kill them in millions without retaliation. This video should be properly investigate. i see a foul play.The youths may be muslims wainting to give christains ba
Sam,
I believe you are a christian.
- Your denial of the actuality and truth is as deadly. You have just participated in killing.
-Your blaming/accusing other human beings, Muslims of the crime, is murder. You have just, as a christian if you are, promoted the actual hate and death of Muslims.
so by your obstinance, your denial and your lies and accusations, you have right here proven that this video can very well be christians, because christians(as yourself), do indeed lie, cheat and deny. And they say- he who cheats and lies can kill. And backbiting is equal to consuming human flesh.
This not true but a make believe by the British authors who never wished the country and christian south of the country well. British would have told us or shown us how their rescue attempt of their citizen failed in Sokoto and who are the master minders.
I do not believe it (This film) as long as it is from British and BBC are concerned because they are the cause of the country’s endemic problems. For everything wrong in this country is initiated by Britain. They sowed the seed of discontent and disunity. When the hausa fulani the Muslim were prepared to leave the in 1966 the same British that forced the south christian and the norther muslims together by their convenience amalgamation. In 1966 the British request the North that had kill enough eastern origin officer of men of the armed forces to take control of the affairs have destroyed the Igbos. British propaganda machine may not work this time around hence i do not believe the film. Since the Bombings in the North and Abuja what has the BB said?
@260d90d41e6c3059a6111865768842b0:disqus , @austine okeh,@d60c2d1046ed2cffdedd5e378234e2a4:disqus . U can continue to confuse/convince urselves that what ur eyes see is fake! May be BBC and British are hausa fulani/muslim, who brought Islam to northern nigeria. I wonder what u will ever believe as long as it is not what u want to hear. The truth is coming out, and honest, sincere christians and southerners who were fed with false propaganda will start to use their heads.
I honestly do not believe both the story and pictures as real,
as no christian no matter how carnal could pepetrate such evil. The publisher should desist from publishing materials that would further destory the unit of this country and lead to the disintegration of this nation for that would do no body good
God will help us
I as a person is really confused as to which God these people are figthing for. is it the almigthy God that created the heavens and the earth with just a word from his mouth? or their personal interest, both Christian and Muslims. stop destroying the world thru misinterpreted doctrines. God has the altimate POWER to defend his interest. Dont be deceived my Brothers!
Pure fabrication. Invented to create hatred.
keep on with this fake information. Boko haram @ work
This country must be divided I cant be part of this cannibalism .. sad !
This is Boko Haram Campaign of calumny against the rest of Nigeria and the British calculated attempt to disintegrate Nigeria. It is not right to associate any religion with cannibalism. Even Muslims are denouncing boko haram for killing and maiming innocent souls. How then can you associate Christianity with cannibalism? It is quite unfortunate that the report is coming from BBC reporter whose country has brought us to this mess and are baffled on how we managed to stay together up to this moment. The will of God for Nigeria is supreme and no mortal can change it. Those who wants power by all means should have a change of heart.
u call this people. they are nothing but animals. thank God boko haram are out there to kill u fucking Birom christian Youth, if i have a gun i will kill all of u mother-fuckers.
i am from jos and my people these things are real. no computer effects here. there are more heinous atrocities being carried out without your knowledge. you have to believe what you see in these videos. Only God will help them.
Totally in agreemt with godcm20 though not liking the name "people" open ure eyes and see wats in front of you, if Nigeria is really marked for destruction then half the war has already been won try nt t forget the words divide and conquer, lets loose the arrogance,hate and intolerance cultivated ouryour hearts against one another only then will our nation progress and fr those who this doesnt hold any meaning for at least think of your families we do not know where its all gonna end
I saw lotta replies that make sense. Not long ago, an item of news like the one above of a supposed muslim convert, was in circulation, quotin multiple ayas(verses) frm the holy Qur’an that demanded of muslims to deceive, hate and kill xtians(atleast thats how it seems to the average xtians).
Today, I am seein this of xtians eatin the flesh of roasted muslims killed(disgustin).
About a few months ago, I read somewhere in vetarans today a headline: Nigeria, marked for destruction.
25th Dec., 2011, a bomb went off at madalla killin scores of xtians in a service. That sparked off serious anger from the xtian angle but later, subsided.
20th of January, 2012, witness a very bloody massacre in Kano wit muslims as major victims. That was also rolled under the carpets. I want to say that, from my analysis, I see behind the stage hands, wit open agenda, pullin the strings in order to cash in on our bloodbath and bring the disintergration prediction to a swift conclusion. OPEN UR EYES CHRISTIANS AND MUSLIMS or dance to the rhythm of a hidden foe.
The video portrait showed what really transpired on that fateful day of Sallah (Idul Fitr prayer) in August, 2011 when the Muslims were returning back home. Oh GOD! do not leave all the actors / accomplices / political office-holders in these acts of cannibalism, hatred, lewdness, tribalism, and irreligious against humanity unpunish; Allah knows them and HE shall reward each one of them accordingly, amin/amen. what a conspirancy agaist Muslims in Jos and the Government cannot commiserate with the victims. We shall leave to see the end of wrongdoers in this scenerio.
Looks like some folk took the idea of Holy Communion a bit too literally…
This video doesnt seem real. If real, the perpetrators are not Christians!!! It is unbiblical to kill, not to talk of feast on human flesh. It is completely disgusting to associate supposed christians with such heinous acts, I repeat, very disgusting!!! Wether Christians or Muslims, we are all one before God Almighty. We are brothers and sisters and should not kill or hurt one another.
I dont believe in this, the people that posted this want more violence in Jos period. computer could do any thing these days. If you want to be christian be, if you want to be moslem be, dont try to force anyone to believe in your religion or do things like you.
Yes, it is computer. But if the video had shown Muslims eating Christians, however unreal the video looks, that would have been real, not computer, abi? Just listen to your selfish words! Mtsceeewww! Deceive urself.
Ikuku or what ever is your name is it because this are christians eating muslims that is why you say it is computer. You are very selfish and you are only trying to Protect your christian brothers wickedness.God will judge you all.whether you like it or not the truth is gradually coming out for the whole world to see.
I hv never seen even an animal eat human. I therefore can not comprehend those comments that try to rationalize. This is not hate but a clear case of opportunity to openly do what has been a culture of a people. Only God knows how many people hv lost their lives to these cannibals. All the missing people we hv recorded in the past. May I never be eaten in my life & death.
From all indications, the writer of this whole article does not love Nigeria. What do you intend to achieve by these postings? Why not look for articles that will help to sooth the pains of families and individuals that had lost their loved ones. Whether Christians or Muslims, we have never-dying souls that will one day stand before the judgement of God. If you incite people to hate and kill one another, whether Christian or Muslim, God will judge you for your actions.
Islam is always known for violence. This time,the Christians are saying through prayers that, enough is enough. Their God will fight for them. I,therefore urge us to be careful or God will consume us.
No Mr Sarki, u r wrong. There is nothing worst than cannibalism. I hope you are not one of them. If u say Islam is known for violence, u must explain. Some Muslims may be but Islam no, just like I don't think cristians are cannibals even though we saw u eating humans in the video.
There is bias in giving such a report from whom ever might have posted this report, he look at it one sided, and passion to the other side. he shouldn't forget that not every body in jos is a true believer in Christ Jesus, for the bible thought us, you shall not kill thy niehgbour, it even says love your enemy, Bello did comented, of fighting christians in the north, remember that it is God whom created us on earth, you will not wipe us out of the surface, niether the christians wipe out muslims in the wold or Nigeria, He should also remember is the other religion that has thought other religious sect to be violent, thru thier Religious believe, in violent and Terorism activities. which we ware loving kind people whom love peace. almost every body has been push to the wall, we should creat an atmospere to love and to forgive one another
Pls Gambo, this whole thing is about eating human. R u trying to rationalize cannibalism?
This is nonsense. Both Jesus, peace be upon him, and Muhammad, peace be upon him, taught the same message of peace and love.
The news is true, u don’t like it baca use it states the fact about ppl parading themselves as Christians when they are not, plateau people used religion only to gain sympathy from other Christians for their barbaric acts and it worked for them, today the only news reported is when the mast turns against Christians.
the acts as exposed is probally a way of telling their opponents, that they prevail when the war gets intense. i.e feeding on the remains of their victims.
Nonetheless i find the author being quite biased in regards 1. is it every non muslim in plateau/jos that is a christian?
2. is it every christian in Jos that is berom?
these pple might have been pushed to the wall to warant passing a message so intense. My advice is that the circle of violence be cut off else they might do much worse.
So what will that be? What could be worst than what we just saw. How many people have they eaten in the past & what is the source. What of all the missing people recorded over the years including foreigners who have disappeared in Jos.
//2. is it every christian in Jos that is berom?//
You are been bias. Is it every Muslim in the North that is Boko Haram? You find this unsavory because it suddenly turns the table around. You believe Islam promotes terrorism, about this shocking discovery?
Thank God b ecdouse truth can never be stopped no matter how ypou supress it. The happenings in the north speaks it all. How many plateau people are in Kano , Yobe Maiduguri etc. All the criminals caught in Jos crises taken to Abuja and set free no body sees that. Thank God for His oinipresence and omnscience
If I may ask who are the causers? And those causing the problem, where are they coming from? the devil you know
he has nothing to offer. The story that was posted is a an cook story, because there's no detail background of the
cause that lead to the scenario.
People should disregard things they see in the net that can not contribute positively to the society.
Whatever you think it was you saw was really there not film trick is just that some people in Jos eat people that is my resolve and if i have a family in Jos i will relocate them to kill a muslim in a repraisal is good enough because he will kill you too if he has a chance but to eat his flesh outrightly is what i cant make out therefore the Biroms are considered cannibalistic they must have been in the business of eating flesh long a go they are the most violent tribes of our time!
I see all these things as a "Hate Protest" by the Beroms. I see an institutional cover-up and sponsorship, But I hope and pray that we should not push our luck to far. The latest discovery is an act of God. The truth was shielded from the public and the world and now they have been exposed.
That dimbo is a useles element. Do u thnk tht was all a propaganda?? Cannibalism is never approved in th world over and thoz biased securities were there blinded wth devils whisper frm atop…I admit and evryone wil do tht av never seen such a thng apart frm zombies/hororfilms
All the comments about what had happened is campaign after election. May there soul rest in peace… It is our government and stupid so called leaders that always causes this nonsense. I Muhammad Bello Aliyu, let's the Christian continue with killing our fellow Muslim brothers and se what will going to happen, their will never be peace in Nigeria especially here in North where there a Christian. We keep quite before but we cannot tolerate this nonsense anymore, and we are ever ready from now up to the day which world will come to an end to fight any single Christian in Nigeria, especially those in the North…. Let the worst happen and we are ever ready to destroy the whole nation but if you thing ma above statement is just bullshit please may the Christian try the Muslim in Jos and see what will happen… Ever ready to die.
But If we may ask, do you hold such contempt and do you fight so hard to protect Christian life as the Quran clearly demands, as you are ready to here?
Its a promise from allah s.w.a that he never let his religion down n jos will surely b in hands of muslims.
And yet these same people come out and condemn bokoharam in public while they are worse.
No one in this world can stop islam and block it from moving forward nomatter hw u kill and eat our flesh.
We believe this is a time for Muslims to show a superior demonstration of compassion. The Quran 5:48 says: compete with Christians in righteousness. Allah could have made the world one single faith had that been His desire, but He made us many so we can vie with each other in doing good. Muslims and those who claim to be Muslims can not deny the blame they have in the spate of madness up North. The prophet of Islam said- Muslims, unlike Jews and Christians, are not confused in the larger issues of Tawhid, principles of faith, the devil doesn't successfully attack Islam there, but that Muslims will also be at loss due to the lesser issues. Muslim violence…it is time Muslims show the world Muslim law enforcement. Muslim benevolence. Muslim hospitality, not all this hate and anger.
y nt preaching to dos xtians hu refuse to admit inhuman act. plz try to b neautral in wt ever u r doin
Dear Abdul, we try as much as we can to be honest, straight forward and neutral in our news and comments. Right now, the world is at a point where the line of morality has been highly obscured- non existent. Tolerance and superior compassion is what is implored of all Muslims, Christians and others. Silence is a form of acknowledgment. Many times, words are spoken from the mouth only, but not the heart, so what use is words. let our actions speak….well, we are not here to preach. Thanks for your reaction.
Are these pple really belive in d existing of GOD? People lky bimbo atiya love 2 give a dog a bad name in order 2 hang it.
I dont think our so called security agencies hv been fair in carrying out their duties n our gov. continue paying them salaries n other entitlement. What a useless Gov.?

It is highly unfortunate the way people commit such atrocities without bringing them to book. The people are not even hiding their identity! Knowing fully they have god-fathers that are more powerful than the law. Nigeria is a lawless country.
OMG,dz act is inhuman,barbaric n tedious.may God 4gv dem n put dem in d right path,
If one kills for what ever reason outside law it is to large extent a crime against the dead but when one eats (such) human corpse it becomes a sacrilage/crime against us- the living ones. However, i hope that all these infos like the ones against muslims or vis vasa are not the hand-work of our general (Islam/Christian)enemies who want more blood for their ocult demands.
oh my God!
God save Nigeria…… is this what our country is turning into? killing one another and eating the mutilated bodies…… Muslims and Christians are one! y can't they all understand this? this is just so sad and heart breaking.
THE APPARENT BIASE ON GOVT SIDE HAS BEEN THE PRIME CAUSE OF CEASELESS TROUBLE IN MY BELOVED CITY OF JOS.I CAN REMEMBER CLEARLY AFTER THIS INHUMAN TREATMENT ON MY PEOPLE,PLATEAU STATE GOVERNOR COULD NOT EVEN SYMPATHISED WITH THE FAMILIES OF THE VICTIMS ON AIR TALKLESS OF VISIITING THEIR HOUSES.GOD IS IN CONTROL
How can the governor sympathize with u when he god a share of the meat
While it is sad to see other humans mutilating another human beings body, I for one see these videos as an extreme form of Journalism and unreasonable propaganda. I took my time to watch these videos before making any comment and I think it is regrettable to label the actions of one person who appeared in the video eating the human flesh while with a huge wrap of indian hemp in his hand as the act of berom youths in Plateau state. It was a moment of recklessness and sheer stupidity probably influenced by the abused substance in his hand. A clear lack of judgement on his side and for those who where involved. It does not in any way prove that this was a recurrent attitude. While i do not hold any brief for the berom youths (I'm not berom) I'm mostly concerned about the propaganda these videos are intended to achieve, to stir up anger in the middle of a peace process that has already begun in Jos. We the youths both Christians and Muslims have seen beyond these times and are forging forward to end these senseless killings and hatred. I call on all who are concerned that we should join our hands to change things around us, and not demand for explanations into the actions of some few disgruntle elements who were reckless in the time of war, which was the situation at the time these purported cannibalism took place. I stand to be corrected.
DIMBO ATIYA Founder/Creator of JOSTIFIED.
A life is really a life. Would Dimbo Atiya have reasoned this way if it were the other way round??
Let us Rise above Hate!!!
My response is to dimbo
Dear Dimbo.
Can you honestly say this is an action of a single person, even if you saw only one eating the flesh ( I saw more than one, though)? Why are all thepeople around him not stopping him? Why are the police, visibly seen around, not arresting him, why are the Nigerian media not reporting it? and finally why are religious leaders not condemning it? Can all these be the actions of the sole indian hemp-induced idiot?
I think the first step towards reconciliation is acknowledgement of wrong doing. comments like your own, the founder of the highly rated Jostified, left me with a lot of hopelessness. How can you deny such a clear evidence of man's inhumanity to man, employing such oft-repeated technique of blaming the victim of orchestrating propaganda and expect people who read your comments to consider you a neutral arbiter.
Please be honest with yourself, if the work you are doing is really God's and you expect Him to support you.
Are u a birom. It's obvious by the way u are talking. Seeing the truth and trying to defend ur pple
The guy is a birom man. He is indirectly standing up for his pple. Seeing d truth and denying it and calls himself a man of God
hmm hw culd u jostified jos wif d hiden sentiment in u. plz try to b neautral and say d fact if u rili want to jostified
What beats me is the level of attention the madalla bombing received, why did the Vatican, white house, merkel, sarkozy and the others kept mute about these. Why is justice? A life is a life.
