Jos crisis: One killed as Berom, Fulani peace pact flops

PUNCH, May 6, 2013 by Jude Owuamanam
The fragile peace pact signed between the Fulani and their Berom neighbours suffered a setback on Sunday with the alleged beheading of a Berom man by suspected Fulani herdsmen. Security agencies in the state, in conjunction with the Senator, representing the Northern zone, Mr. Gyang Pwajok, have had several peace meetings with the representatives of the two warring groups in the past three weeks with the aim of bringing an end to the spate of killings in the northern senatorial zone, especially in Riyom, Jos South and Barakin Ladi local government areas.
