On Sunday evening, news of a fiery message delivered by Pst. Tunde Bakare was making wave. By Monday it had caught on like wild fire culminating in his invitation by the SSS. We cannot deny the fact that Nigeria is not living up to her potentials,no thanks to poor leadership over the years. Nigeria has two major religion, christianity and Islam. However, i have noticed that it is only pastors who are busy calling for the division of this country, death of the president and resignation of the president, while their Muslim counterparts have respectfully stayed out of these issues. Is it that they are being used as fronts by some politicians? Are men of God not supposed to be neutral, admonishing both the opposition and the government in power? Am just wondering, are pastors now the greatest threat to our democracy and unity as a country?

Stallion77: El- Rufai na Christian? All dem people agitating for a sharia region na Christian? Abeg fashi dis religious corner corner jor.

hardywaltz: Empty drums make the loudest noise, while Pastors are shouting on the pulpit; the Imams are busy grooming suicide bombers and terrorist. Most riots in the North usually starts after Jumat service. Most Church services are Televised and in English, while Jumat (hope dats d spelling) service ain't televised & mostly in Arabic. Do d maths and will see dat while Christian Pastors call for disintegration of Nigeria just to please their audience; the Muslim Imam are working around the Clock to make it happen.

^^^ The religious ignorance and level of lies implanted in to some christian folks or whatever is disgusting.if you don't know why the use arabic or don't know why they hardly air there sermons then ask than jump to ridiculous assumptions and beer parlour informed decisions.
Sermons are done in Arabic because this is the original language of communication with the Muslims before now and preferred by Muslims globally over English.Even at that,times have changed.In Nigeria it has always varied from mosque to mosque.The use of this languages Hausa,English,Yoruba and Igbo apart from Arabic is prevalent.Some Mosque would even combine atleast two or three of this depending on there community if mixed.Other minority languages also use there languages in places like Kogi(Igala,Ibira etc),Borno (kanuri),Adamawa(fulfude) etc.Unlike like Christians who prefer prevalently English in Nigeria,the Arabic language is the most used in the Islamic sphere.From Quranic qoutes to Hadith referals.
Now about the media are you just playing ignorant or you want to tell me that the Islamic programs or sermons aired on Fridays are imaginary.Also radios are used to air the much messages Muslims can afford.Unlike the Christians who invest alot in the air waves to compete with each other for worshipers.The Muslims maybe reluctant in this aspect.Due to the fact Muslims generally believe the 5 daily prayers and Juma'at prayers are enough to share happenings around us and spiritual sermons.Even that is changing as Muslims are recognizing the power of the media over just mosque attendance and continuously efforts are made to sponsor or arrange Islamic programs on the media.So why are Muslims opening up if there intent is to hide there actions?Why also do they air programs during Ramadan and Fridays on TV.Especially if you are in the Northern part of the country.Are there no Christians in such states?Then in alot of places speakers are used.If only you understand the native dialects or Arabic you should hear everything they discuss.We may not have enough to air all our Mosque activities but yes where speakers are allowed we use them.Some use even English.In the mosques located in SW,Abuja,SE,SS because of the worshipers understanding.Even at that Arabic is still used in a section of the sermons etc.
Your assumptions without doubt is misguiding and full of nonsense.

#yawns# ...... I was hoping u will treat the more important issue of imams instigating riots and grooming suicide bombers. Mtchewwww

noblezone: I am a Christian, and considering the number of my kinsmen slaughtered in Northern Nigeria in the name of Allah since I was born till now, I wish that Nigeria was never amalgamated.

emm @Poster,

While the people like Bakare are busy shouting "up up Jesus, down down Jonathan", his moslem counterparts are busy doing "bomb bomb Christians, bomb bomb Jonathan"

van bonattel:

Actually you are wrong, moslems throwing bombs are acts of peace, you know it the most peaceful religion.

Of course, without a shadow of doubt, islam is a peaceful religion.


@ Noblezone, sorry for your kinsmen slaughtered by our northern moslems in their quest for PEACE & UNITY in our dear ol' country.

They are just collateral damages..........

Da infamous: Muslims like blood too much,even if their is no reason to kill they will cook up some stories or allegation and use that as a tool to kill people, original Dracula

I did my NYSC in Zaria in Kaduna State.

One faithful night, we were woken up by shouts of "Lai la ilala, Mohammed ....." or something like that. It is was round 3 am, we peeped through the window and saw hundreds of Moslems chanting the "lai ilala" stuff and marching with vexation.

The young man I was staying with asked us to be ready to run in case it escalates. So we woke up and were ready just in case. It died down around 5.30am, and it was that morning we heard what happened.

"There was an eclipse of the moon" which made the moon to turn "red". These Moslems interpreted common eclipse of the moon to mean that Allah was very angry with the sins of infidels.

Would you believe that some people were actually killed that night in other to appease the angry Allah? In fact, they were convinced that it was the slaughtering of the people that led to the colour change of the "red" moon.

Islam as a regligion belongs to the cave men.

The only way to deal with these people is the "isreali way" - when they kill one of your people, you kill fifty of theirs.

Number 1 though is that violence must be met with violence.
