I just listened to a very gladdening conversation on BBC Hausa. Representatives of Christians and Muslims of Southern Kaduna met to find a path to peace. Each party acknowledged its fault, aired its grievances, emphasized the need for peace and agreed to continue the talks.
The road to peace can long and rough, but this initiative appears to be promising because it was not organized by government or politicians. It’s a gathering of real victims, not elites who have no skin in the game, and you can feel the sincerity in the voice of the participants
Participants promised to (a) go back their communities with deliberations (b) called on those not from the area to stop stoking the fire by spreading falsehood and (c) urged wealthy individuals to invest in the area. Women ran a parallel session with similar resolutions. HapI just listened to a very gladdening conversation on BBC Hausa.

But don't you think that they are just playing with our brain?
