Lemon:
I said "roughly divided" it would all be a little too neat if ALL the muslims were in one part and ALL the christians in another. But it is a fact that the North is dominated by one religion and the south by another. That this division goes beyond religion into tribalism. That this has been brewing since well beefore 2001, making any connection to global factors an afterthought at best. A fact that this violence is on the rise in Nigeria and that people from all sides get killed far too often. Ofcourse Christians are getting killed, so are Muslims, northerners and southerners, from every tribe you can name. Its a conflict and that's what happens in conflict, people die (note I did not specify religion, tribe, even country or continent)
What I want you to know is that the operation of this is mainly in Borno state mainly and some parts of the northern states. We have not even experience any act like that in the southern state and how do you call that tribal?
