Nigeria: 500 people killed in violences between christians and muslim nomads in village of Dogo Nahawa, at south of Jos

About 500 Berom natives in Dogon-Hauwa village, five kilometres south of Jos, were massacred on Sunday morning by Fulani herdsmen who raided the community through a border village in Bauchi State.

Neighbours joined Dogon-Hauwa villagers to wail as the bodies of elderly women and children littered everywhere among the dead.

Plateau State Governor, Jonah Jang, who raced to the village from his private residence in the same Du district, fought back tears on seeing the havoc.
