Three students of University of Jos feared dead in a renewed clash in Jos.

As the sound of gunshots rented the airwaves in a bid to quel some disturbances along Bauchi road junction around defunct zero eleven night club, about three students of UJ are feared dead due to attacks on them by some irrant youths coming from a burial of one of their own at naraguta grave yard.
It took combined efforts of police and the millitary serving under JTF to put it to rest.
One of the toyota Hilux patrol vans was used to convey the seriously wounded students to the hospital via zaria road by jossy royal hotel.
We hope that this action does not extend to the following day being saturday as it is expected of the JTF to mobilise more personnels for effective patrolling of flash points to avoid reprisal attacks either from the student body or some hoodlums who may want to take such advantage in unleashing mayhem on innocent passers-by.

Jos crises: Atlast arrests have been made for the very first time.

I thought the fulanis are always invincible to arrests as claimed by the victims of the attacks. The latest attacks In Barkin ladi had unravelled the mystery behind all the myths of claims of invincibility by the attackers. I have been shouting myself to whoever cares to listen that there is no issue of disappearance if only the joint task force (JTF) is up and willing to take their responsibility of protecting lives and properties as serious as it is meant to be. Now that a whooping 29 fulani attackers had been arrested amidst gun battle with the JTF, let us see what the police make out of these since they will be handed over to them. At this point i congratulate the gallant men of JTF for their bravery in showing the people of Jos and its environments that at the end of a tunnel, there is light. We hope this tempo will be sustained to make the much desired peace and tranquility return to the city that is so much dare need of one.
