Nigeria’s Growing Atheist Community by Namnam: 5:44pm On Nov 26, 2021
The atheists of Nigeria are 900 thousand people currently and growing especially as more Nigerians move to the cities and as public security starts cracking down more and more on jihadism and fundamentalist Islam as time passes means Nigeria is gonna become increasingly secular as time passes. Thoughts on this trend?

Our atheist community has only existed since 2014 and it went from 1 to 900k in less than a decade

You won't blame them though... Our religious leaders are now using religion to cash out... We've a lot of Fake Clerics out there.

That's why it's better to just Read your Bible/Quran and look up to God/Allah always... If you look at the Lifestyle of some of these Clerics, You'll just be discouraged.

While I don't doubt there are atheists in this country, I would take such online stats with a very large pinch of salt

The methodology is iffy, most Nigerians don't have access to the internet and census questionnaires tend to avoid the religion question.

Don't use that one to disturb us. If you people like you can live as godless, stiff-necked heathens that's una business. We have more pressing issues troubling us in this country.

I don’t think we we have so much atheists like that in Nigeria( by atheists i mean people who actually don’t believe in the existence of God/the supreme being) , rather what we have in Nigeria is a growing case of people that have stopped going to church or mosque because they’ve grown tired of it and have seen the hypocrisy of some of the proponents of the two major religions.

Nigerians (especially the youth ) are just not interested in what pastors and Islamic clerics have to say.

An average atheist is sympathetic and compassionate towards fellow human.

I no fit talk the same for our religious folks. As we all know, Religion has been one of the major cause of war even for Nigeria not to talk of the world generally.

Hunger is causing it. When you are hungry and frustrated you become angry at everyone and everything. You curse your parents , you curse your debtors and those who you are owing money too. You curse your lineage and country and finally your curse your creator and suddenly stop believing in anything due to a rumbling empty stomach grin

All these so called atheists in Nigeria are hungry ,broke people who have tried to borrow money from everywhere no one helped them. They prayed countless times for help and none came,They converted from Christianity to Islam and back n forth looking for money to rent a one room to sleep in.

Finally one guy is claims to be an atheist gave them 2k to eat which looks like 1 billion to them and immediately they join and start ranting that so called Christians and Muslims are evil ... All because of 2k shocked

All that is required of them is to have heard the gospel of Christ at least once. Scripture says, the fool saith in his heart that there's no God. There's God o!

The Nigerian version of Christianity is the cause of all these..
And the bulk 9f that figure lies in Benin those men no believe anything.

But rather than atheists I'll say the 900k are mostly agnostics

And after when someone mocks your religious belief you would cry intolerance

Be more tolerant. You can disagree with atheists sans abuse

Which audio checking ?

When the population in the North is magical that appears only to vote & be counted for census.
Then vanishes when it comes to generating revenue

Are they the reason people are being displaced in the North?

Its on record that the Christians in Nigeria are being murdered
