Religion Is Not Our Problem, Corruption Is. by osifred(m): 2:03pm On Apr 09, 2013
15 Police men killed by Niger Delta Boko Haram "MEND". Buhari should also appeal to them to stop killings right? Nigerians, we are yet to confront the main issues. Our problem is not Christians vs Muslims, it's bad leadership, extreme poverty, and massive corruption at the top. Despite the huge population of Christians in Lagos I don't know of any Christian that could've won against Babatunde Raji Fashola (a Muslim) at the last Governorship election in Lagos. Yet, most of these same non-Muslims that were able to different between result-oriented leadership and religion will allow themselves to be deceived by the Federal Government of the day that "the Muslims are trying to make Nigeria ungovernable because we have a Christian president" . Common now, for real? Nonsense!

Well, it's on record that the first terrorist bomb blast in Nigeria (Abuja) was carried out by MEND - A terrorist group from the Christian dominated Southern part of Nigeria - take it leave it. So Our problem is neither the Nigerian Muslims nor Christians, rather, it's corruption and "kill-and-divide" religion strategy that is well played by politicians to disunite Nigerians, which is also highly supported by our respected spiritual leaders knowingly or unknowingly. Anyways, ignorant is not an excuse in the court of law so probably KNOWINGLY.... This is one topic most Nigerians are shying away from, religious sentiments and fear (False Evidence Appearing Real) has eaten deep into some souls. The political merchants and some corrupt Christian and Muslim leaders knows this quite well - and they have fun playing the same card every now and then.....

Nigerians, we all need to wake-up and #kickoutsidonlook.
