Imam Mohammad Ashafa and Pastor James Wuye led opposing armed militia dedicated to defending their respective communities.

In pitched battle pastor James lost his hand and Imam Ashafa's spiritual mentor and two close relatives were killed.

Now the two men are co-directors of the Muslim Christian inter faith mediation centre leading task forces to resolve conflict across Nigeria.

Theirs is a moving story of forgiveness and reconciliation and an example of how to heal communities separated by conflict.
