Nigeria urged to end impunity after village massacre

You can put as much Lipstick on this as you want , And it will still Be a religious rooted Problem !
The Root of the Problem , Muslims vs Christians .
Muslims hate everyone unlike them ! And think they are superior !
Christians , While they supposedly do not hate , are extremely Arrogant and believe they are superior Also .
So What to do ? Both sides being at fault here , do to Plain Ignorance , HOW do you stop this ?
You don't , 1400 or so years of religious fighting is Obviously not going to be stopped over night !
unless one side decides to Give in and leave , we are left with the fact that because of two different Interpretations of a supposed God , we will see this fight go on forever ! No amount of money you inject to reduce poverty will ever stop this !

It is in the Breeding .

(Reuters) - Nigeria must prosecute those behind a weekend massacre and address underlying issues of poverty and discrimination if it is to end a cycle of violence in the zone between its Muslim north and Christian south, rights groups and diplomats said.

The United Nations, United States, Human Rights Watch and opposition politicians all urged the authorities to ensure those responsible face justice after attacks on Sunday on three Christian villages in which hundreds are feared to have died.

Residents of Dogo Nahawa, Zot and Ratsat, about 15 km (9 miles) south of the central city of Jos, buried dozens of bodies including those of women and children in a mass grave on Monday following the attacks, which they blamed on Muslim herders.

The raids were in apparent retaliation for four days of violence around Jos, the capital of Plateau state, in January which killed several hundred people, many of them in an attack on the mostly Muslim settlement of Kuru Karama.

"Better security is clearly vital but it would be a mistake to paint this purely as sectarian or ethnic violence, and to treat it solely as a security issue," U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said.

"What is most needed is a concerted effort to tackle the underlying causes of the repeated outbreaks of ethnic and religious violence which Nigeria has witnessed in recent years, namely discrimination, poverty and disputes over land."
