1. OP you are being truthful by half measures, first, Zik was not an executive president, tafawa balewa was the de facto ruler, zik was just a figurehead.

2. calculate the number of years muslims have ruled against xtians and see.

3. as to the SW states, the Christians their wont discriminate, it just happens that majority are xtians and majority xtians will result in more xtian candidates/contestants.

4. lastly Christians will seldom resort to violence the way our gentle piss "peace" loving brothers will do if anything goes against their wishes, like a certain general from cat-sinner, a name sake of the famous pedophile blood loving prophet from the middle east

I don't think you guys really do understand what a system and political culture means. Things have changed whether you like it or not. Nigerians are now sensitive because of the spate of political islam and insurgencies. I don't really have problem with a muslim muslim ticket, but the only problem I have is Buhari. He had made derogatory and treasonable statement that ought to have landed him in jail if this was an ideal society. He is a fundamentalist. He registered Nigeria in the Organization of Islamic Countries. He said that all muslims should vote for a muslim candidate. He also said that the fight against terrorism is a fight against the north. What else do you want him to do before you call him an extremist? A man is always judged by his words even in heaven. Are you guys blind for God sake!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the gullible Nigerians who believe bullshit I blame. 16 years of PDP and their small minds have been reduced to Muslim/Christian.
It is not "Gullible Nigerians", it is Nigerians mainly from the South Eastern part of the country. Stop trying to be politically correct and stick to calling a spade, a spade.

Bros, what if we calculate it this way?:

MUSLIMS

Belewa---5.5
Murtala---0.7
Shagari—5.3
Babangida—8 years
Abacha---5 years
Yar’Adua- 3 years
Total- 27.5

Total: 54 - 27.5 =26.5

Shagari ruled from October 1, 1979 to December 31, 1983. That should be 4.3 if i still know my maths.

In South west, it is said that between 1979 - 1983 all the SW states (Ogun, Oyo, Ondo) were ruled by Christian-Christian tickets. Until the advent of Amosun, Ogun state had never had a muslim governor! Just 4 years ago, before Aregbesola, Osun was a under a Christian-Christian ticket (Oyinlola and Obada).

PDP has produced more Christain governors in SW than other parties. Does that mean PDP is a Christian party?

All this religious antics are crap if you ask me. What is most important is the credibilty and the performance of the one in charge. Little wonder most south westerners doesn't even realise the fact above that there have been more christian governors.

FFk maliciously said APC governors are made up of 80 % muslims in order to manipulate the poplulace toward voting PDP against the facts above. What he maliciously lfet out is the fact that in South-East and South South governors have been 100% christians (and almost certainly, their deputies too!)

So Where is the Ismalization of Nigerian? In fact, should the majority of the Northan muslim population vote against PDP since PDP is the one playing the religion politics?



And wat of the north, were they governed by christian governor also during this periods

ok, op now calculate the number of years muslims ruled and that of Christians.

The longest serving Nigerian leader ever is a Christian, the person of General Yakubu Gowon. He was given all the support needed to succeed by the Muslims in the North then whether in the military or outside. He ruled for 9 years. All these religious and ethnic cards are bullshit only bandied by incompetent leaders to hide their failures. I wonder where all these recent agents of religious and ethnic jingoism where when Aremu ruled for 8 years. In 1983 the whole country voted massively for MKO Abiola if not for the ambition and greediness of a few that scuttled it. Where was the North born to rule mentality they keep using to taunt the Northerners today? They have overused it. Only that illiteracy and naivety will not allow it work against them. Ignorance is disease worse than Ebola and AIDS put together.

Guy calculate number of years per term... I mean people like Ernest Shonekan shouldn't be on that list.. D guy serve reach One year?

Secondly, u said south-south, SE governors are 100% christian,, what about Lagos, Sokoto, Kebbi, Katsina, Yobe, Borno, Kano, Niger, Zamfara, Bauchi, Gombe, Kaduna(Yakowa bt shortlived) E.T.C with a substantial number of Christians that have never smelled a church going Governor?? Most of this states i mentioned had governors from d parties that formed APC. This states dont even have a church-going commissioner let alone Deputy Gov. Infact churches don't even survive in this states confirming the islamisation of Nigeria Story. Get ur facts right!

Oga, i think RCCG, Winners, Deeper Life, Christ Embassy, Foursquare, Daystar, CPM, TREM etc started in Lagos. In your wildest imagination, churches dont thrive in Lagos. There is God o.

i don't why south eastern Christian sound that they are the only christian and liberal people in Nigeria, funny enough most part of Nigeria have to some certain exact allow people of different faith have a said in their state political, the op give example of south west state, here are example of north Nigeria, Benue with almost 95% Christians and pagans have a muslim representative, plateau have 2 muslim representative even during OBJ era they have a muslim senator, Taraba and Nasarawa with almost 50/50 population have both muslim/Christian. am tired of hearing that SE is 100% stuff because if you are liberal as you claim other people will feel comfortable living in your cities from example Zaria in Kaduna was declare an islamic state by Bako I dan Musa in 1500s as most northern state but still pagans live with the environs and sharia was reintroduce in 1800 by Musa ibn Suleiman Ibn Muhammad that almost 200 years so if muslim hate Christian that much i don't Christians will account for about the 15-20% of northern Nigeria

I think the idea that ss & se are made up of 99% christians is stretching the truth a bit. 40 - 50% Christians my be accurate while the rest are animists, idol worshipers and cultists. Please do not take it the wrong way, I am simply stating what I consider to be facts much like you did above.

LOL I don't think there's that many 'cult activities'. You know Nigerians like to accuse each other of non-sense or say that something is happening just for a reaction. I believe most muslim and christian nigerians are a mix of whatever their 'religion' is and animism. Anyone that believes in anything supernatural that isn't in their holy book, which nearly all nigerians do, is still animist to an extent.
