The poster is from River State. Click on his user name and find out. There are Igbos who are Christians, and how many times has anyone of them been allowed to contest for offices or been appointed as commisioners?

The only part of Nigeria I see religious intolerance is in northern nigeria. Just this morning fulani herdsmen went on killing spree in southern Kaduna. In Edo state there are mix of christian, muslim and traditionalist and for any region to say they are more tolerant than others is laughable. Oshiomhole is a muslim yet christians from edo state voted for him . The OP of this topic is from Lagos state and I think its mischievous of him to post such article .
oshiomhole is a xtian

In the history of Yoruba people religion has never been an issue....Ooni of Ife is a Muslim....Alaafin of Oyo is a Muslim...but they regularly attend churches and pray for people....qualification is what matters to the Yorubas...

As long as the person is Yoruba and indigenous to the state, Lagosians will support him/her.

You lot need to take your religious bs away from Lagos; most people from there have Muslims, Christians, and Traditionalists in their families. undecided undecided undecided
a Nigerian. Remember this is one Nigeria as prescribed by Gowon and Awowlowo, so any Nigerian is qualified to rule anywhere anytime in Nigeria as far as he/she wins the election. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

I see you refused to answer the crux of the matter. If religion and ethnicity plays no part, would you naptu2 allow an Igbo man to rule Lagos?

Start by allowing a Yoruba man to rule Anambra State.

Apart from Otedola name me another democratically elected christian governor of Lagos state. Its impossible for a christian to rule Lagos.

Arcard: A lagosian post a thread and u guys ar blamin it on se/ss





When you see bigoted nonsense like this thread, figuring out the source is never any form of rocket science, it's always ibo related and the OP is clearly ibo..




krendo:

Cant they use their office to complain to their colleague the Governor of Rivers to do something?

Cant they behind the scenes fund lawyers through Ohaneze to help traders who may not know their rights to defend their rights?

This is an attack on our people and these Governors can do something like helping a sensitization programme or providing legal defence to the oppressed.

Standing up for the rights of Igbos should not be about seeking the Presidency of Nigeria, if anything that should be the least need!



krendo: It breaks my heart when I see things like this. Where is Ohaneze Ndigbo when you need them? These traders obviously in most cases do not know their legal rights as Nigerians and are clearly being exploited!

They need the help of Ohaneze to deploy the best Lawyers we have to explore how best to defend the rights of Igbos whereever they are.

Spending time every 4years making noise about where the next President of Nigeria must come from is really of no use to anyone.

Ohaneze really need to refocus with the help of South East Governors in order to defend the rights of Igbos whereever they are.

We can not continue to allow our country to have it both ways. So long as we remain Nigerians then our rights as Nigerians must be respected and Ohaneze can help enforce it.

Would they let me do the job? I am a criminologist by profession anyway. All the security agencies in Nigeria need to do to track them is to follow the ip addresses of those posting the videos on youtube.

That's what most of them don't know. Islam was prominent amongst Yoruba's way before Christianity and Uthman Dan Fodio. And a lot of Yoruba Muslim scholars schooled In Timbuktu under the tutelage of Baba Ahmed, when Songhai reigned supreme in West Africa.

I seriously don't believe that Islam came to the southwest before ustman Dan fodio era,btw before the grater part of what use to be the old lagos was include to make the present state,most lagosian were traditional and Christians,with a good number of Muslims.
@ op we just don't give a Zap about religion in politics,all we want is the best man/woman for the job.
