uzolexis: Until census is conducted to ascertain which is more. You may look at it from the angle of huge birth rate in North as most of them are Muslim but come to think of it, the Christians has increased of recent in the north and combining the population of Christian in the entire south, I can say it's 52%-48% in favour of Christian. 1 Like |

uzolexis:You know nothing about the religious demography of your country. Do you realise there's a significant population of christians even in a state like Bornu? There might be as many Christians in the North as there are Muslims in the South brother. Dont doubt it for a moment. 3 Likes |

Some people will still argue the population of Muslims to Christians in Nigeria.. You multiply as commanded reach us? You dey marry reach us? Half of the state's in the country is pure northern..Muslim 90percent to 10 And you still come here to argue. Some people need to buy sense. 1 Like |

Corrinthians: the population of christians in the north can never be more than muslims there or can never be as much as christians in the south and the population of muslims in the south can never be as much as muslims in the north. Execept the ratio has changed recently, the statistucbelow has been available for a long time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Nigeria According to a 2001 report[14] from The World Factbook by CIA, about 50% of Nigeria's population is Muslim, 40% are Christians and 10% adhere to local religions. wristbangle: 1 Like |

uzolexis:Show me the stats. You can't just pull a number out from the hat and expect me to agree. I'm from the north. And where am from(Taraba), our population as Christians outweigh Muslims. Most states in the North East have a very large Christian presence. Borno, Adamawa, Gombe. Now take the population of states in the North Central that are usually classified as Northern states. Benue, Nasarawa, Plateau, Niger, Kogi etc. Some of these states above, like Benue...Christians, Niger...evenly divided, Plateau...Christians, Nasarawa...Muslims with a good number of Christians, Kogi...evenly divided etc. Down South, apart from a state like Edo, is there any state that has a large population of Muslims? So where did you get your 40 percent Muslims down South from? I understand your point as regards the number of wives Muslims marry. And Yes, their population might be more than Christians. But except a census is conducted as to that regard, I will not accept any projection as word of truth. 6 Likes |

Corrinthians:Have you been to the north? Yes or no? Aside Lagos, which other southern states in Nigeria have a very big population? Even Lagos is fairly divided between Muslims and Christians, as some yorubas are Muslims. 1 Like |

uzolexis:CIA fact file. Psst! Those con artists?! See, Fani Kayode (FFK) sometimes speaks like someone who is mad. But even a mad man sometimes says things that are true. His last exchange on social media with Reno Omokri was particularly interesting. For one to really understand this country, you need to read it's history and how the north vehemently opposed Nigeria's independence. Forget the British and anyone that is her ally. Forget the CIA fact file. |

Sunnynwa:My dear brother you asked the question before I did.See how the western journalists assume a lot of trash about Nigeria.Nigeria is a predominantly Christian country and no one should deceive us with false statistics.May be he meant the north since we know that we have many more.christians in the North than we were meant to believe.See how they help blood sucking fulani maurauders to shape the demographics of our country. |

oduastates: Congratulations . Use those virtues and values of Yoruba to establish an independent state of odudua. If in realities you're comfortable why haven't you push for independence and quench the conterminous nature of Biafra and Arewa or is that premature or fear of unknown? You have succeeded in tribalizing the sound mindedness and intentions of the OP. |

uzolexis: This is 2001 statistics dear. Things have change over the time and don't ever conclude based on the high birth rate of the northerners hereby concluding the Muslims are more. There are other factors to consider such as death rate, survival rate, accessibility to health, food and other basic amenities which favours the south more. |
