pictures: El Rufai should learn from history. A politician who is insensitive
to other religion doesn't win election in Nigeria

But when GEJ with all the symbol of the Nigerian state knelt down before a fellow man...he was sensitive to other religions in the country abi..

So much for una double standard on this thread

first of all he ought not to ve retweeted that joke being a public figure and a muslim..he was just insensitve .however,he only did that cos xtians used to make joke cincerning jesus and their religion institution in jokes and comedy.that was what he thinks to make him to retweet the tweet which was a mistake on its part,however i tot xtians dont care if jesus was mocked?..i tot only muslim feel bad when the prophet is mocked at..but as a muslim i believe jesus should be respected accordingly as a prophet and a leader in islam and so is the believe of elrufai

PointB: One of the qualities of good people is guarding your utterances! El-rufia has failed this test again and again in his bid to score cheap political point. This cut, is the most unkindest of them all.

But we will forgive, but never forget the assault on christian and christianity, and we will certainly remember this prior to 2015.

As usual you guys will want to make maximum political capital out of this goof

If Ogunyemi Bukola replaces the name Jesus with Mohammed in his tweet will El-Rufai retweet the statement. I'm quiet sure many Christians life would have been lost and many churches would have been burnt.

To the Warriors of God, who misinterpret the Scriptures (both Bilble and Qur'an) and pretend to be capable of fighting His battles, please learn from history. The multiple Crusades and Jihads are yet to convert the entire human race into one religion. If God wished us all to be of one religion, He would have made us so. So please leave God's work to Him, and just be good to other humans.

Best part of the statement.

Thought one of the few principles of politics is to be quick to hear/read but to be slow to respond.he missed it there.lesson to others,nigeria is too sensitive when it comes to religion.

The same humans who villify extremist Muslims for issuing fatwa on Rushdie are now more than willing to do worse things to El Rufai, in support of Jesus, contrary to the admonition of Jesus which calls for forgiveness.

Reminder: There are no air conditioners in hell. Dolos.

Next time he wants to retweet a joke he should retweet one about his height, wife and religion, Our Lord Jesus is bigger than their 2015 political tweets and jokes.
His apologies should go to Jesus Christ not Nigerians, he can only let us know he has apologised.

El rufai just want to sell his book. He organized the tweet and the reaction, he can now apologize and invite the pope to his book launch. Naturally everyone would like to know him better.
Too cheap a strategy......:

Did Jesus use drums, cymbals and all (like Christians do today) when he used to pray and worship
Most important point is that he demonstrated that the best way to beseech God was by humbling himself and falling down on hi face

Go and look around Islamic section on NL
Your brethren daily insult our Prophet (PBUH) as a routine act of worship
One of your sisters went to UI mosque to disrupt (and preach) during Jumuat service
She is alive and well

9ja voice: qoute me anywhere on this "if mccain say any word as this about mohamed far away in USA, blood will surely flow in sokoto,kano etc"

even if he retweeting king of saudis words.

la furia:
u didnt answer my question, give me just one example of a muslim insulting jesus. i have seen videos of jesus performing vodoo, read books about jesus having a child, all written by christians. have you seen muslims make jokes about their prophet they way christians do? u dont know islam and so u wont understand. not everyone who is a muslim is going to paradise. evil muslims will surely be punished.

you guys say if it was the other way round. my answer, did you see the el rufai RT or tweet in the newspapers? or television? for the larger fanatic illitrates christians in kaduna and jos to see, el rufai's RT wont make headlines. but wen the prophet cartoon came up, the whole world announced. i dare CNN or channels tv, vangurad or punch to make el rufai's tweet on the front page and wait for the reaction if fight wont breakout in kaduna. i know kaduna very well, and el rufai is from there.

you keep saying if it was the other way round, i ask do the muslim make it a job to insult jesus, yes or no. simple.


9ja voice:
i personaly will advice our muslim bro to learn one or two things from christians.

By insulting Allah and His Prophet (PBUH)? Even on NL? Go to the Islam section to verify this?
But get angry at El Rufai retweet of a Christian's originated tweet
By going to UI mosque to disrupt the Jumuat service?
By proclaiming hell fire on people all the time?
By calling people animals, goats etc?
No. Nothing to emulate

Most Christians commenting here consider themselves mainstream
contrast that to the muslims formenting trouble - extremists who are in clear minority!
