May 2010 079

Tjip Walker ’79 (center) meets with Pastor James Wuye (right in blue shirt) and Imam Mohammed Ishafa (far left), co-founders of the Interfaith Mediation Center, Kaduna, Nigeria, a leading peacebuilding organization in Northern Nigeria and a recipient of USAID/OTI grants.
“Incidentally the Pastor and Imam have emerged as two of Nigeria’s most influential peacebuilders,” writes Walker, “joining forces in 2000 after sectarian riots ripped through Kaduna.”
