OUR ONLY CRIME TO THEM WAS THAT “WE ARE MUSLIMS”.
7 September 2001 was not an ordinary day. It was a day that left a permanent scar on the memories of the Hausa-Fulani Muslim community in Jos. Twenty-five years may have passed, but some memories do not grow old.
Why do we need to remember?
We remember not to teach hatred, revenge or division, but to preserve the truth against contamination and learn from the wounds of the past. We remember because a people without memory can easily become victims of history again. Let the world know that these days were real, these losses were real, and the tears were real. We may forgive, we may seek peace, and we may choose reconciliation but we WILL never forget.
Is there a need for our upcoming generation to know?
Yes, for them to know the nature of their town, people, diversity and other issues.
I will personally never forget that Friday. I will never forget that Saturday. And I will never forget that rainy Wednesday. They were not ordinary days. They were days of fear, survival, loss and unimaginable pain.
We must remind the world of the lives we lost, almost 1,000 people according to accounts of the violence. Behind every figure was a human life, a family, a story, a future that was suddenly cut short by the enemies of peace calling themselves “Yan Kasa”.
We must remember the homes that were set ablaze, the properties destroyed, businesses wiped out, farms and other sources of livelihood lost, and the wealth accumulated by families over generations reduced to ashes within days.
We must remember those who were displaced from their homes. We must remember mothers who lost children, children who became orphans, husbands who lost wives and wives who lost husbands.
And we must remember the fear, the anxiety, the uncertainty and the feeling that the place we called home was suddenly no longer safe.
Some may want history to move on without looking back. But you cannot heal a wound by pretending it never existed.
For us, the lesson was profound.
We learned that security cannot be taken for granted. We learned that communities must remain vigilant. We learned that friendship must be tested by difficult times, not merely by peaceful days.
But most importantly, we learned the value of unity, self-preservation, solidarity and peaceful coexistence.
We remember those terrible days not because we seek revenge, but because we refuse to allow the suffering of our people to disappear from history.
Our dead deserve to be remembered, our displaced deserve to be remembered and our destroyed homes and livelihoods deserve to be remembered as well.
And the lessons of 2001 deserve to be remembered. Twenty-five years later, I still remember that Friday, Saturday and that rainy Wednesday. The memories are still fresh because the losses were real, the pain was real and history must never forget.
We won't be the first to ignite a fire, but if another person ignite the fire, we'll use every available means to extinguish the fire to protect ourselves and to ensure we're not victims.

Every time I come across an Igbo Muslim, my respect for that person increases, because I know it’s not always easy to practice Islam in a community where everyone has been taught to hate Islam and Muslims right from young age.
May Allah protect all Igbo Muslims.

Exposing the Truth: Standing Firm Against Fake Yescoin Scammers
Recently, we have witnessed many community members mistakenly joining the so-called "White Yescoin" project, believing it to be the official Yescoin due to their trust in us. Unfortunately, this has led to wasted time, lost points, and misled partners. Numerous KOLs and partners have also fallen victim, losing money due to their involvement with White Yescoin. Instead of focusing on developing a quality product, Fake Yescoin has chosen a path of deception, imitation, and malicious attacks. Today, we break our silence and expose the truth about these scammers who have been masquerading as Yescoin. What they are offering is not Yescoin, but a fraud—a fake entity engaging in unethical competition, trampling on the interests of our players.
We have repeatedly warned our players to be vigilant against these unscrupulous impersonators, and we have issued official alerts to this effect:
https://t.co/s18N5CHWKu.
The scam orchestrated by Fake Yescoin has been premeditated for some time; they are repeat offenders, and we are not their first victims—nor will we be the last. Fake Yescoin registered our trademark and logo in an obscure jurisdiction and has been using these to harass us and our partners, aiming to hinder our growth. We have previously voiced our protest against these actions: https://t.co/0D8fCo4ctP.
Before impersonating Yescoin, Fake Yescoin had already faked @notcoin and @ton_blockchain , disrupting the ecosystem. It is difficult to see how such actions could bring any positive impact to our environment—clearly, they have not. A good project should bring long-term value to users and the ecosystem, and we welcome strong, legitimate projects to join us in building the industry. However, the malicious behavior of Fake Yescoin has made this impossible. They have harassed our partners, threatened our community moderators, intimidated our ambassadors, and even launched relentless DDOS attacks against us. This is not healthy competition, and we can no longer remain silent. This is not only irresponsible towards our loyal players and partners but also detrimental to the industry's growth. As early as April, we raised our voice in protest: https://t.co/rRU3vbdOyM.
We recognize that we are not the first project to be imitated, nor will we be the last to be harmed. As more and more players and partners report their losses due to Fake Yescoin and ask for our help, we realize that it is time to take a stand. If we do not expose these scams now, more people will fall victim in the future. Today, we make a strong call to protect our community.
We want to express our deepest gratitude to those players and partners who have silently supported us during this challenging time. You are the heroes of Yescoin, and your support gives us the strength to continue our fight. We stand firm, united, and committed to building a fair and transparent crypto ecosystem.
To those players and partners who have suffered losses due to Fake Yescoin, we thank you for your bravery in coming forward. Your experiences have been a driving force behind our decision to break our silence. We welcome you to join the real Yescoin. Yescoin is not just a project; it is a family, a movement, and together, we will overcome these challenges.
There's only one real Yescoin.
