@post :

Nigeria is what it is because of the northerners who are ruling the country and most if not all the northerners who are ruling the country are all muslims.

Islam is never the solution to the problem of Nigeria. The solution is a total revolution of mind, eradication of greed and corruption. We need a leader with an innovative mind and vision.

Islam is never the solution because in Saudi Arabia, they are also extremely corrupt.

Muslims have rule Nigeria most times dan anyother religion&Nigeria is still worse off under islamic leaders.
1960 Tafawa balewa rule as d PM becos Azikwe was just a ceremonial head.Gowon, Murtala,Shagari,Buhari,Babangida,Abacha,Abudulsalam&now Umaru who is receiving treatment since 2009, in an islamic country.Under another Muslim,no power&no fuel to power Generators.
Its High time muslims handover to other religion.They ve failed us

@last poster, we saw obasanjo, what had he done ?

Saudi arabia is free from crime, you need to go and see for urself.

Islam have the perfect solution, when law was in full effect in the northern nigeria the world turned their gold to obasanjo to depress the sharia law saying it is an abuse of human right.
Today the sharia law is not functioning, just last week in sokoto some fornicators were taken to the prison and later released, etc.

This our present predicament of a sickler president was chosen by the christian ex president.

As for sharia law, if sharia law is enforced everybody will be scared to start up a sectarian violence because the law says an eye for an eye, whether you a muslim o or a xtrian, once you kill you will be killed. So there will be peace and harmony

Re: Nigeria At 48! An Islamic Solution To Its Decayness by AbuZola3(m): 8:51pm On Jan 20, 2010
Toba, the people you mentioned were military head of states. Nobody will question them if they kill Human right activity e.g saro wiwa, talk of basic amenity. This shows you who among the military head of state and the civilian head of state should do a tangible work
Re: Nigeria At 48! An Islamic Solution To Its Decayness by AbuZola3(m): 8:54pm On Jan 20, 2010
I meant activist, saro wiwa was killed by firing squad
Re: Nigeria At 48! An Islamic Solution To Its Decayness by Nobody: 9:01pm On Jan 20, 2010
The pple like babangida&co were muslims who NTA show them going to mosque on fridays.They are human beings,though military men.Does that say they should not perform well? Does d quran not teach pple to have d fear of God? As muslims y did they do bad for this Country?

The reason why I like Abuzola is because he is a very stubborn Muhammedan who allow his love for the Islamic cult system to overide his sense of reasoning. I believe you can still change . We have religion and we have common sense, Okay.

Look let me set the record straight before you. Nigeria problem is caused 80% by the Northern Muslims leaders who are visionless, stupid, brainless and who don't care about the country along with some stupid southern counterparts. 20 % is the mindset of Nigerians themselves. That is why I said I said we need a total change of mind, but if you look at it you will not blame Nigerians, suffering have afftected their sense of reasoning.

Nigeria is now labeled a “TERRORIST NATION” by the US state department. Thanks to Islam and Muttalabs.

For some years now, as a nation we were dealing with the battered image due to drug peddling, prostitution of young girls, 419, credit card forgery, human body parts trafficking and all sort of illegal and illicit ways of survival thanks to Ibrahim Babangida – aka IBB (A muslim of course!!!) .

During his 8 years rule 1985 – 1992, corruption rose to all time high and his governors and senior government officials looted the national treasury. His SAP agenda, which was later known as “Suffer and Perish” had such devastating effects on the economy and severe consequences on millions of Nigerians. IBB institutionalized 419, corruption at high levels and plundered the economy.

In fact the era of IBB led to the beginning of the moral decadence and purposeless society that we have today. The depth of corruption and social degradation led to moral decline, ethical and spiritual decadence at all levels in our society. His economic agenda destroyed the Naira and basically rubbished the Nigerian economy, which actually elevated greed, bribery, and corruption. Naira was devalued and a dollar could buy 100 Naira at that time.

The quest for dollar and foreign currency motivated many young Nigerian girls into lucrative prostitution overseas mostly in Italy , Holland , France , and Switzerland through an uncontrollable ring of organized prostitution of young Nigerian girls that were taken to overseas for such old fashion trade in the early 1980’s. His administration did absolutely nothing to stop such organized crime against the reproductive resources of our country. That era of unbridled greed and sexual pervasion led to social and moral decadence we see in our country today.

President Obasanjo first introduced the ranting to restore the battered image of Nigeria overseas thanks to the advice of leaders at the World Bank and IMF. Mr. Frank Nwaeke Jr. was appointed the information and communication minister and he became the beneficiary of such huge project to reclaim our lost glory and reposition Nigeria to be the “Heart” rather than the “Giant” of Africa . Billions of Naira was spent to clean Nigeria ’s image abroad

Religious extremisms were breeding at home. The Northern states are a breeding ground for religious extremism and Jihad. What have Yar'Adua done about it ?

Tafawa Balewa is useless because he did not achieve anything, Ibrahim Babangida and Abacha are the most corrupt, vicious, demonic leaders that Nigeria have ever produced. Yar'Adua the greatest sickler Nigeria have ever produced is completely useless. He never achieve anything. Every minute he is always in Saudi Arabia for medical treatment. Why can't he find a solution to the Nigeria health sector ? Why is he always running to Saudi Arabia ? Will a Saudi King come to Nigeria for medical treatment ? This is a shameful, despicable and rather disappointing.

Nigeria especially the Northern states are breeding ground for Jihad, religious extremism and international terrorism? I don't need to tell you why?

The reason why men and women in various position of leadership in Nigeria are just sissy, cowards and ignorant is because of Islam.

The history of the religious extremism that has been terrorizing Nigeria for the last forty years Islam.

There is no organisation in Nigeria today because of Islam. Where is the Vice President of Nigeria, since the President is currently bedridden in Saudi Arabian hospital? Where are the leaders of national security agencies? Where is the minister of Aviation, an industry that is comatose thanks to the pandemic corruption at the highest levels that put Nigerian Airways out of business? What steps are being taken to fully investigate the Mutallabs and actually figure out if these are truly Nigerian people or not? This country does not have leadership at all. What we have are ignorant, inept and bunch of cowards as leaders.


Religious ignorance, intolerance and violence have been one of the banes of our nation’s development. Religious conflict and violence have been a big problem in Nigeria and a major threat to the security, unity and national progress of Nigeria. Religious ignorance and intolerance breed violence. Religious violence has decimated more lives in Nigeria in the last 40 years than hunger, disease, and accidents combined together. Nigeria has been a battleground between Islam, Christianity and traditional religions. What have the so called Northern leaders done to resolve the issue ? They lack creative ideas on how to move Nigeria forward.

Since 1960, Nigeria has had some many incidents of religious extremism and Islamic fundamentalism in their attempt to Islamize the nation. We have had religious riots in Jos, Kano , Maiduguri , Kaduna , Sokoto, Bauchi and other major Northern regions in which thousands of Christians were killed, their businesses looted and their property worth billions of Naira destroyed. What have the so called Northern muslim leaders done about it ?

Many of us still have vivid memories of the dastardly and despicable rash of rampage and violence in the major cities of the Northern Nigeria being carried out by Islamic fanatics and fundamentalists.

In 2003 when Nigeria had a rare opportunity to host the Miss World contest, a young and talented journalist wrote an article jokingly saying that if Prophet Muhammad had been alive, he would have chosen one of the beauty queens as wife. The Moslem fanatics took that as an excuse to carry out their carnage on Christians in the Northern states especially of Igbo descent looting their business and destroying their properties. That ignorant and irrational rampage led to the loss of over a thousand precious lives and Nigeria missed the unique opportunity to showcase her to the world. The Miss World contest was moved to London , England , and Nigeria was denied the economic and business opportunity to attract foreign investors. Off-course the perpetrators of the heinous violence went scot-free. What was done about it ?

In 2004, not even a year later the Islamic religious extremists again went on another rampage in Jos and Kano over a controversial cartoon which was drawn by a Danish cartoonist and published in Denmark and other European countries that sparked peaceful protests in Iran , Turkey and other major Arabic countries. The cartoon in question was not drawn by a Nigerian or published in any Nigerian newspaper or magazine, yet the Nigerian Islamic adherents and fanatics jumped on that occasion to kill their Christian brothers and sisters in Nigeria . Even the worst violent protests in the major Arabic nations did not claim but a few lives and injuries but in Nigeria hundreds of Christians were massacred; businesses and churches were burnt to ashes. Also this time, the perpetrators got away with it and justice was not meted. What was done about it ?


Even until today, we continue to read and witness these acts of rampage and atrocious extremism including the ongoing religious riots, vandalism and killings in Bauchi state between the Maitatsine, Boko-Haram and Kala-kato sects. These acts of vandalism, violence, and killings of fellow human beings compel one to question the teachings of Islamic faith and its adherents. Why such acts of violence in the name of Allah? The radical Islamic fundamentalists can go to any extreme to defend their questionable religious sect and beliefs. These acts do not portray the attitude and behavior of people who follow a true prophet and genuine religious leaders. What was done about it ?

Look abuzola, the list is endless, Islam is one of the collosal problem we have in Nigeria. Believe it or not, but it is the truth,
Re: Nigeria At 48! An Islamic Solution To Its Decayness by Nobody: 2:01pm On Jan 21, 2010
Abu Zola:

Meaning obasanjo ruled for 3 terms

Yes OBJ ruled for a total of 11yrs and for 11yrs he built refineries and power stations and airport in 1976-79 and btw 1999-2007 OBJ cancelled debt he didnt incur, banned importation of foreign products to help local industries, he brought GSM, we have many internet companies, he brought foreign investors and handed over to a democratically elected president in 2007 like he did in 1979 to Shagari. All these in 11yrs

Babagida 8yrs
Abacha 4yrs
Shagari 4yrs
Abdulsalam 8months
Buhari 1yr+

Total muslim rule= No remarkable achievements

Abu Zola:

Obasanjo achieved a lot for the country. When he was a military head of state, he handed over power to a democratically elected president. He carried out a lot of reform.

When he was elected again in 1999, he saved the battered image of the country. The country have a lot of external reserve, he fought corruption, He built refineries and power stations and airport. Under his administration, Nigeria became the first African country to pay off her debt which he owned World Bank.

What have the muslim leaders who have been ruling Nigeria since independence achieved ? So far all the Islamic leaders who have been ruling Nigeria is the reason why Nigeria is completely decay the way it is now.

Islam is a total failure in Nigeria and should be nip in the bud. haaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!

If this is the level of reasoning of the youths of this nation, the future is indeed gloom and dangerous. The common folks blame the level of development on the muslim presidents. I really do not know what to say or where to begin but can only pray God grant us deep intelligence and enlightenment.

God will save Nigeria from stupidity. What is the stupidity ? The stupidity is Islam. You saw what happen again in Jos, for how long will this go on for ? Yar'Adua is always going to Saudi Arabia for treatment, thereby helping the Saudi economy, what is wrong with the Nigeria health system ? Now your father Yar'Adua is bed ridden, and he refused to handle over. Is it not common sense that when a president is away, he should allow his deputy to do his duty ?

So you have to save yourself from madness and stupidity that is affecting you since 7th century. Sincerely I don't think one Nigeria will work. Let us separate. Islam is the cause of backwardness in Nigeria.

Ever since Sharia was adopted in Northern Nigeria, what have been their achievement apart from violence, slaying, butchering, deception and utter stupidity ? Instead of you to accept your mistake and let us correct it. All you do is defend your advanced ignorance. God have mercy !!!

The greatest mistake is the Amalgamation of Northern Nigeria with Southern Nigeria.

Islam is one of the greatest problem in Nigeria. We need a leader with true love for Nigeria, NOT LOVE FOR SAUDI ARABIA( WE ARE AFRICANS NOT ARABS).
A leader with a vision who is truly committed to fighting corruption and greed. We don't want a leader who will force Islam down our throat.

I almost always respect your input, Lagosboy. This one is not an exception; you really have said it all.

For a typical example, read above's reply: they--the youths, do nothing as they know nothing more than spreading silliness.

@Muhsin :

How old are you anyway ? What do you think is the solution to Nigeria which your Islamic brothers have destroyed ?

What I am trying to say is that Islam is never the solution of Nigeria and it will never be. Islam has brought violence and deception to Nigeria. That is why Northerners don't trust southerners. They want to hold on to power by any means, and since they have been ruling the nation, they have not achieve anything.

Abuzola you are a crap and your ways of thinking is crap as well. I don't expect common sense from you.

I challenge you to mention one Muhammedan(muslim) who initiated infrastructure in Nigeria and the longest one in Africa ?. Nothing of value in human intellectual endeavours can possibly be created or grow under Fundamentalist Muhammadan Islam. All we see about Islam is violence, wickedness, deception and advanced violence. They are continually inventing ways of doing evil. It is sad but true.

(1) Can you or any follower of Muhammad mention TEN Muhammadan Muslims who have contributed anything whatsoever to human intellectual, spiritual, artistic and or philosophical advancement from among the tens of millions in the Arabian Peninsula in the last 1372 years between 635 to 2010?


(2) Can you or any follower of Muhammad name TEN Muhammadan Muslims who have contributed anything whatsoever to the advancement of human knowledge in the sciences, arts, philosophy, theological discourse etc, from among the Hundreds of Millions of Muhammadan Muslims in the world during the 500 years from 1450 to 1950 AD?


The historical records show conclusively - then and at the present - that absolutely nothing intellectual, artistic, innovative or creative can grow from Muhammadan Islam.
The only reason that they cannot find these scientists or scholars is because Fundamentalist Muhammadan Islam cannot survive under the bright light of knowledge, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom of religious belief and or freedom of intellectual dialogue and debate,
because the best and most perfect system of Fundamentalist Muhammadan Islam is that of the TALIBAN in Afghanistan:

a state of mind-boggling IGNORANCE, RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE, HATE, TERROR and UTTER STUPIDITY.

That is the truth Abuzola. It is sooooo sad, but it is true.
