A state having a christain population of over 96% is best described as a Christian state. If you don't like that relocate to sokoto.

Tying Christianity to rivers state is like tying Christianity to cultism, kidnapping, prostitution, bunkering, militancy, ritual killing to Christianity.

Rivers state is one of the biggest crime places in Nigeria and this man proudly keeps on tying it to Chrstianity.

Is he thinking at all?
In that case you should go and live in Borno State, and after a year if you are alive then you have the rest of the story.

TITOPE:

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has again declared the State as a Christian State, adding that he owes no one any apology.

The Governor spoke at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Holy Ghost Rally, which held at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium on Sunday.

He said, “But for God, the enemies would have taken over the state. I thank the Church for standing firm.

“They prayed for God’s will to be done and God’s will was done. But for your prayers, I won’t be here as Rivers State Governor.

“Anytime I have the opportunity, I repeat the declaration with authority and I owe nobody an apology. I am standing on solid authority. Rivers is a Christian state.”

Wike said he remained Governor due to God’s intervention.

He said God dislodged “forces of darkness” who were primed to rob him of his mandate.

He described himself as a living testimony of God’s blessing.

“Nigerians are aware of what happened on 9th March 2019. If anyone says he does not believe in God, that event of March 9 should make you believe God,” he added.

Religious fanatic!

Wike says it’s a religious state, a Muslim can be a Gov and say same!
All this doesn’t stop other religions or believe!
Instead of taking panadol on a generalized term why not focus on requesting good leaderships?

Christians day JESUS is greater! Muslim think otherwise, it’s a generalized term and it’s matters to anyone that’s interested...

Modified 10 hours later;

I have been receiving a lot of mentions from children filled with hate. I understand some are reeling from the aftershock of yesterday's triple knock outs in Bayelsa, Kogi and Dino.

I repeat it is shameful for Wike to shamelessly continue to tie Rivers state and Christianity.
For the past 4 years Rivers and Borno have been 2 of the most notorious states in Nigeria.

Wike should stop embarrassing us. We know already that Rivers state is 99 percent Christian.

He should stop reminding the world about that.

See how you're telling me about focussing on leadership.

So how does Wike calling Rivers a Christian state have anything to do with leadership?

See!

You don't even have sense.

There is only one constitution. The Nigerian constitution. Nothing like Kano or Zamfara constitutions.

As for Sharia, a Muslim-dominated military rule was the cause for the recognition of Sharia court of Appeal, and its inclusion in our constitution. So, it is not even a civilian thing. And as you know, amending the constitution is not an easy thing.

The constitution also allows for the establishment of regional Sharia courts which was why Zamfara enjoyed the privilege of instituting Sharia as above a mere equivalent of customary court.

The constitution of Nigeria states that there are no official religion, and that Nigeria is a secular state. That is enough for anyone with some form of education.
for the fact that sharia law applies to all indigenes of zamfara and kano whether Christian or Muslim then the states is nothing but an Islamic state. If zamfara and kano are not an Islamic States,why do they keep destroying bottles of beer enjoyed by the Christians and traditionalist living there.

Sharia law does not apply to every indigene of Zamfara and Kano states. It only applies to Muslims.

As to why Hisbah destroy beer bottles indiscriminately, the question you should ask is: "Is their act constitutional?" If it is unconstitutional, then how can the unconstitutional act of Hisbah (an agency of a state government) be the law?

A section of our constitution (the ultimate law) states that no state would adopt an official religion. This means Nigeria is a secular state, and every state within it is secular as well.

Which law established the hisbah police ? Under which authority does the hisbah police carry out their activities?

I don't know what you hope to achieve by these questions.

Even the police who are empowered by the law of the land sometimes carry out unconstitutional acts for which they can be sued.

When Sharia was instituted, it was clearly stated that it would address Muslims, and not non-Muslims. Breaking beer bottles of Muslims is within their limits as a police executing Sharia laws, but breaking beer bottles of non-Muslims is going outside their jurisdictions. And they can be sued for it.

Rather than use the acts of Hisbah as a reference, why not use the constitution of the country which empowers a governor who then empowers Hisbah?
