Afizere Nation Warns Berom Not To Create Ethnic Tension In Jos

The Afizere cultural and community development association ACCDA, has warned BECO Berom educational and cultural organisation not to create ethnic tension by stirring the nest of melee and discord in the state.It will be recalled that BECO President Da Erickson had addressed a press conference recently in Jos where he alleged that the creation of Jos Izere chiefdom was without the corresponding districts and village areas in Jos north LGC.According to BECO, Some of this issues raised should not be viewed as minor as they have the capacity to generate avoidable chaos, disharmony and violence among our people.Addressing newsmen titled a rejoinder by Prof Danladi Atu in Jos yesterday ACCDA pointed out that Afizere people are known for peaceful coexistence with their neighbors asking who then are the war mongers and conflict merchants.Atu stressed that BECO was beating the war drum in its write up. This in our view is the real threat to peace on the Plateau, wetherefore alerting the relevant security agencies to take note and monitor their activities.Afizere further noted that BECO threatening the peaceful Izere nation in order to re- write history will neither shift them from their God-given land nor remove their government recognized traditional rulers.Atu rather appealed that, We should come together and explore ways of how to move their communities out of the present socioeconomic problems confronting them, what we need is peace and not rancor.
