Nigerian religious slaughter peace talks stalled
Attempts to mediate a bloody conflict in Nigeria, where attacks by a predominantly Christian tribe on a Muslim village killed at least 500, were bogged down today.
Although the exact death toll was not known, Red Cross workers āestimate 500 to 600 deadā after interviewing witnesses and inspecting a mass grave site where hundreds were apparently buried, said Red Cross official Umar Abdu Mairiga.
