The post BECO COMMISERATES WITH DA (HON) ISA SONG ON DEMISE OF DAUGHTER. appeared first on Berom Educational and Cultural Organization.

One of the recipients was said to be an unknown figure named Alh Abdulmudallib Mudi Hardo, who bagged the title of ^Sardaunan Sabon Gidan Danyaya Bisichi^. This development appeared to be the the icing of the cake of the unrestrained invitation to a looming danger.

It is on record that our youth organization, the Berom Youth Moulders Organization (BYM), has rightly and promptly responded to this unprecedented and orchestrated display of nauseating and insensitive violation of our culture and tradition. BECO, for the purpose of emphasis, deems it necessary to comment on the matter, to reiterate that this glaring act of stupidity and irresponsibility, stands condemned, in the strongest terms.

We are not unmindful of the growing manifestation and deployment of choreographed acts of lawlessness, carefully designed and brazenly calculated by these conflict merchants, to cause a breach of the peace. We have observed with shock and utter disdain, the emergence of an alien Bukuru emirate, in the social media. This looks like a childish play that should be ignored. Unfortunately, doing so is at one’s colossal risks, knowing the calibre of people we are dealing with here.The Bukuru emirship scandal, when viewed along with the diabolical ascendancy of a coterie of idle Fulani youths in Jos , daily masquerading as social media advocates, demanding for indigeneship of Jos.

While we have maintained measured calmness, studied maturity and dignified silence, expecting the state to act, it has become very imperative that we draw the line, for these urban Fulani settlers, in our midst, posing as Hausawan Jos. This is because our silence should not be taken for granted or weakness. Doing so is only at the risk and peril of whosoever is bent on trying our resolve to defend our land, people, culture and tradition.

Karat (Bisichi) may consist of a remnant of the historic migrants of the tin mining story of Jos, but the settlement remains unarguably, part and parcel of Foron district. Though majority of the urchins and sponsors of the unease in Jos, are essentially individuals whose ancestry is deeply inscribed in the despicable prostitution industry, an important component of the social matrix of the migrants, the precursor of the present set of Hausa agitators for indigeneship of Jos, the land still has its autochthonous inhabitants and owner. Certainly, neither the Fulani nor Hausa are part of this.

Karat is wholly under the jurisdiction, authority and control of the Gwom Rwey Foron. Nobody, irrespective of his background, religion, economic status, social connections etc, has the right to recklessly, irresponsibly, flagrantly and clandestinely dish out titles in this, or any other part of our ancestral land.

In any case, the land on which Karat is established does not belong to the said Ibrahim Isa, the fake and unlawful title awarder. That land was usurped via colonial fiat for the purpose of tin mining, which at that time constituted public interest of the colonial government. As it is with all assets and liabilities used for, or in the public interest, such assets are usually returned to their original owners at the expiration of the said public interest. This is the case with all lands and assets of the defunct mining companies, which, unfortunately, were wrongly handed over to the grand parents of the present day Jos – based agents provocateurs, by the British miners, in conjunction with the colonial state.

BECO therefore deems it fit, necessary and urgent to unequivocally condemn the stirring up of unmitigated rascality and stupidity of Ibrahim Isa, in his assumption of powers he does not have and, going ahead to demonstrate a regime of intolerable provocation, capable of breaching the fragile peace.

We are aware of the role Bisichi has continued to play in the festering the embers of terrorist attacks on our communities in Gwol, Riyom and Jos South LGAs. This is a known storehouse of the terrorists, surprisingly fortified as a safe haven for hardened criminals. This is sadly so to state, with a strong military checkpoint staged in the locality, obviously, more for the benefit of terrorists than for the indigenes.

BECO immediately calls on the security agents to arrest all the characters and challatants involved in the caricature of juvenile delinquency that took place at the mosque, for proper interrogation and diligent prosecution. This is because these acts are capable of breaching the peace.

We call on the Foron Traditional Council and Barkin Ladi LG authorities to quickly wade into the matter, without further delay, as it portends unimaginable dangers. The state authorities must rise to its duty of safeguarding our culture and tradition from being bastardized by a roaming congregation of conflict entrepreneurs.

It is with great joy and appreciation that we received the cheering news. Besides, it is a fact that Prof Omotayo remains the first and only DG of NIPSS to have deliberately brought NIPSS closer to its host community. This he did through positively impacted policy instruments with wide-ranging impacts on the host.on the host. Hitherto, the institute had remained an isolated elitist entity and strange island in the midst of its immediate host.

However, we note with great pleasure and satisfaction that through carefully prepared and strategically implemented community- friendly intervention initiatives, the NIPSS, under the leadership of Prof Omotayo, has created a cordial relationship with the host community on the one hand and, a
serene learning environment for participants.

As he resumes office for his second term, BECO on behalf of the Berom nation assures the D G of our unflinching support and cooperation. This is even as we look forward to an improved and better working relationship. May the years ahead bring out the best for the D G and the institute. As we congratulate Prof Omotayo, we urge him to accept the assurances of our esteemed regards and goodwill.

Janet’s remarkable feat at the International Powerlifting Championship, where she represented Great Britain in Oulu, stands as a powerful testament to discipline, resilience, and excellence. Her gold-medal performance, lifting an impressive 455.0kg, is not only a personal triumph but a source of collective pride for the Berom people worldwide.

This victory exemplifies the prowess of the Berom woman—strong in purpose, steadfast in character, and unwavering in the pursuit of excellence. Janet’s journey reflects a legacy of resilience deeply rooted in our culture, reminding the world that Berom daughters rise with courage, determination, and grace, even in the most demanding arenas.

Beyond the medal, Janet’s success sends a profound message to our younger generation: that talent, when nurtured with faith, hard work, and perseverance, knows no boundaries. The global stage is wide enough for every young woman to discover, develop, and showcase her God-given gifts without fear or limitation.
BECO therefore celebrates this historic achievement and encourages our youths—especially young women—to draw inspiration from Janet Gavou Pam’s story.

May her accomplishment ignite renewed confidence and ambition, assuring every Berom girl that there is space enough for all to dream boldly, compete honorably, and excel gloriously to the pride of God, family, and nation.

BECO wish to categorically state that it is completely unaware of any such peace pacts, either endorsed by or on behalf of our people, betwee us and herdsmen terrorists. We cannot, in the circumstance either confirm or allude to the existence of any. For any such a pact to be signed there are laid down procedures, that must be followed. No one has the authority to casually enter into an agreement on behalf of any portion of Berom land without the due authorization of the traditional institution of the land.

No organization, individual or groups of individuals have approached us in the BECO or any other organizations in the land, to that effect. Peace pacts are not entered into with frightened, traumatized and devastated villagers, who in most occasions, lack the capacity to adequately discuss/analyse with understanding, the intent and letter of what they are being misled into appending their thumb prints to.

All genuine and well – intentioned CSOs are very much conversant with this position. Besides, if these 25 pacts were aimed at guaranteeing peace, how come that in less than one month between December 16 to mid January, we lost over 30 lives, from Fan, Vwang, Kuru, Foron? Were these areas not covered by the pacts?

We are disillusioned to read in the social media of 25 pacts, with our people, without our knowledge. This is more of fiction than reality and smells of crafted mischief. BECO is convinced that there must have been a genuine error somewhere in the whole arrangement of the report in question.

We appeal to our people to remain calm and ignore any claims, irrespective of the possibility of their reliability, of any peace pacts. None exists for now and in view of our subsisting ban on all forms of dialogues, roundtable conferences, joint activities, with the terrorists for the purpose of brockering peace. This is because past attempts in this direction never produced any meaningful results. The terrorists have instead, manipulated such occasions to launder their false narratives of farmers – herders clashes, to deliberately generate confusion in the polity.

Universally, terrorism has never been defeated through peace sessions between the terrorists and their victims.

The post CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE OF THE BEROM EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATION (BECO), TO Ms GAVOU BATURE Esq. appeared first on Berom Educational and Cultural Organization.

For us in the BECO, Prof Chollom remains a shining example of unassuming integrity, humility, commitment and unquestionable sacrifice to service to humanity. He had served BECO, with exemplary candour and distinction, as Chairman of our standing committee on Education, Steering Committee on the Proposed BECO College of Education (Technical), Interview Panel on the Appointment of Principal of the BECO Comprehensive Secondary School, among many other responsibilities.

It is with extreme ease that we unequivocally state that Prof Chollom performed all these and many other ad-hoc assignments with maximum dedication.
We are least surprised at the recent appointment of the choleric scholar, excellent teacher and expert researcher, as DVC.
We are in no doubt at all that this is not only a well deserved but highly merited appointment.

Our confidence in the cherished antecedents of Prof Chollom tells us he will excel in the office of the DVC (Academics). We therefore, uphold our dear brother, friend, son, leader and an embodiment of morality, in prayers. God who made it possible for him to ascend into the seat is faithful to keep him from falling.

Once more, on behalf of the Berom nation, BECO congratulates our own, Prof Joshua Pam Chollom, the newly appointed DVC (Academics), University of Jos.

That there’s an upsurge in terrorist activities targeting our villages, is no gainsaying. Equally, that some of the casualties from the targeted killings usually emerge through avoidable means, bordering on seeming carelessness, is unfortunate and regrettable.
Ambush-in-the-night strategy, employed by the terrorists undoubtedly, has accounted for a substantial proportion of the casualties. This is obviously avoidable.

BECO is compelled to revisit our earlier warning advisory to all our communities to beware of the times and seasons we are in. The influx into our communities of terrorists from other parts of the north, should signal a strong sign of a hanging danger to us. We must therefore strategise to effectively contend with the impending dark clouds hanging over us.

We therefore, call for proactive readiness and instant alertness on the part of all our people. Towards this end, we call on our traditional rulers in particular, to please direct all sub group leaders under them, to observe and enforce the following:

1. All activities and festivities must end by 6:00 pm and venues must completely deserted by 6:30 pm.
2. All inter village movements after 6:30 pm are prohibited. People are advised to stay the night wherever they find themselves by 6:30 pm.
3. Leaderships of groups are encouraged to liaise and relate with neighbouring villages during their night patrols to abreast themselves with unusual movements and occurrences around them.
4. Night mining is suspended herewith, until appropriate security arrangements and protocols are put in place, shortly. This is to guarantee the safety of the miners.

We note that this directive may conflict with some narrow interests and comfort of a few individuals. However, the need to safeguard and protect life and property is paramount in times like this. We have acted in the overall interest of the land and therefore appeal to all to respond in same manner. We shall soon overcome if we faint not in this day of adversity.
God bless the Berom nation.

BECO is of the opinion that the intervention by the United States under President Donald J. Trump, which couldn’t have come at a better time is divinely ordained. This we are equally convinced is the only appropriate way to permanently end the programmed agenda of human carnage in our country.

We therefore urge the POTUS to intensify and deepen the airstrikes, particularly towards the Middle Belt, where an undignified silence from the seat of state power has invariably imprinted ab ignominious stamp of official acceptance and tolerance to this evil act of bloodletting.

As we join our brothers and sisters in Benue, Taraba, Southern Kaduna and other ravaged areas of the Middle Belt, we call on the President of the United States, Donald Trump, to beware of doubletalkers and terrorist enablers, locking in the seat of government, particularly the office of the National Security Adviser, Ministry of Defense and elsewhere, who will easily and willingly sabotage genuine intentions, for ethnic chauvinism.

Meanwhile, we look forward to the rapid expansion of the airstrikes to Plateau state, to dislodge the endemic groups of terrorists secured in prime localities backed by the federal might.
