Now that we have Christian and Muslim as President and VP, what effect has it had on the country?

Forget Religion and vote for COMPETENCE!

Tinyemeka:
Northern Nigeria: Always viewing the leadership of Nigeria as their birth right.
Even if he might be making a point, the man should just go and sit down. He has lost the moral right or integrity to make any national discourse.

Who call this guy for our party affairs?.............

Our leaders... Well, they've done their parts, who am I to complain when I've not contributed by quota. I am always flabbergasted by the indepth amazing intelligence being displayed by Nigerian Youths on NL. NL folks exhibit a an uncommon and unparalled deep thinking pensive intelligence. I ain't no sycophant so I don't flatter people, I do visit other countrys' forums; I must confess that the shallowness of their minds makes me to beem with pride of being a Nigerian. GOD deposited you, you and you in Nigeria to be solutions and to make the Country great, if you can't see that then you are part of the problem. I see great minds, the future leaders of this country here. But the most nefarious weapon being used by the devil is to misdirect their energy by getting most of these great future leaders preoccupied with wrong focus; on "eye candy" soft ppornn on computer and subtle ppornh on the streets, encouraging nudditty. Nudity IS NOT AFRICAN CULTURE! Only few minute tribes were without cloths and we took cloths to them. Even if our ancient ancestors were walking butt nacked, must we?! Finally, why haven't you, you and you stuck to a 1st generation computer, a Petntium I or II Computer or that ancient horned big Nokia? We humans ensure that new generations of technology are much better than the old ones, yet some humans will never want to become better beings. We all agree that nackedness promote immorality. In prosperity and spiritual purity; Ain't you surpose to be better than your father let alone your ancient ancestors?! The major reason why GOD ALMIGHTY allow procreation is for the generation of better humans, remember that HE ensured that only new breeds of Israelites got to the Promise Land, HE made it 40yrs so that those that murmored died out in the witherness. I shall not miss the so imminent Rapture IJN.

no matter how competent buhari and fashola his,both are muslim and we christian are risking extinction like turkey if we vote for them.To prove to the op that we christians are religous conscious click like and if against click share.

Muscomide:


It is people like you who prevent this country progressing.

Chommieblaq:
Baba is right, religion is taken very serious in Nigeria. An average northern will never vote for a Christian, I have stayed in the north for a very long tym and I know how they regard Christian, kogi Muslim will Neva vote for a Christian ,talk more of a Hausa man, same thing applies to the southerners, they will Not vote for a Muslim, some might even vote, but northerners will Neva. #fact#

Muscomide:
Obasanjo may be a sage but he does not have sole repository of wisdom. If true, I am very disappointed in his intervention. Regrettably, we seem to have allowed religion to creep into our politics and public life. Ethnicity and religion should not be a yardstick for determining the most qualified appointee but performance and content of character. I am Christian but I really do not give a damn whether public officer is Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, Ijaw, Efik, Edo, etc, gay, straight, bisexual, Christian, Muslim, animist, traditional worshipper, etc, etc. OBJ does not always know it all. APC sacrificing their best candidate at the altar of religion is akin to Argentina not playing with Messi because of his faith or Brazil not selecting Neymar because he is Catholic/Christian, or may be even Portugal not fielding a fit Ronaldo.
Only an unpatriotic Nigerian will deny that a Buhari/Fashola candidature will be formidable. Obasanjo is just a hypocrite. Did being Christian prevent him from being corrupt whilst in power? Is it Christian to have sex with one's daughter-in-law as Obasanjo has been alleged to have done? When Abacha/IBB stashed millions of dollars in foreign banks, is that what the Koran teaches?
OBJ should not pull the wool over our eyes, abeg!

I made this statement few days back in response to a nairalander who said religion is not important in electoral matters


"Religion is important, that's the point. If people could change political parties like "undies", why can't they do same with religion?

An Ibo man will never become the governor of Oyo state; it is not bigotry; but a fact. Nigerians will never accept a muslim-muslim or a Christian-Christian or a Hausa-Hausa or a Yoruba-Yoruba president/vice-president.

You can't tell me that a muslim-muslim combination like Buhari-Fashola is the best a country of 160million people can deliver?

Where are the over 80million Christians? Is Fashola better than All?

Fashola is Fashola because he has access to a state like Lagos with so many multinationals, productive people and of course, large resources. The fact that other governors in states like Ekiti, Jigawa, Kwara, Ogun, Katsina aren't making headlines in Lagos based TV channels do not signify failure in other states. We need to get these facts right.

There is little Fashola can do in Aso rock." Nigeria nor be Lagos; Aso rock nor be Alausa.

deb:


So when will the nation grow beyond religious and ethnic bigotry to embrace excellence irrespective of the region or the practice of an excellent and competent candidate?

All these sentimental judgment in making decision has kept the national backward for years. So when will the nation (citizens) become wise on their own without being influenced by even their closest neighbour to take the rightful decision that their own conscience supports?
