Residents leave as they walk past a burnt building at Kuru Karama, 30 kilometres from Jos Township, Plateau State on January 21, 2010. A tank rumbled through the troubled Nigerian city of Jos on January 21, 2010 as soldiers escorted a truck loaded with bodies to a mass grave after four days of inter-religious clashes left some 300 dead. With a permanent curfew relaxed for a few hours, religious leaders conducted mass funerals after the government ordered in troops to quell attacks by rampaging gun and machete-wielding gangs that had raged since a few days.
