Live and let live. Wetin be ur problem I don't know why christians dey always criticize all religion. Worship wat u believe and let others worship wat dey believe. And let God judge not u . Mind u who are u to judge.

funshint: So wats difference btw what they're doing and Halloween?! Abeg leave Osun state alone O°˚˚˚ ...Osun a dara O°˚˚˚ !!!

Fadelex: I'm a Christian, everybody cannot be a xtian and we've got to tolerate others to practice what they believed in. we can only pray for them that they realized the truth someday...

TRuE!

And they can only pray for you that you realised the truth someday.

Happy birthday, Seun Osewa

look at this idiot what has christainity taken you to ,traditional religion is more truthful than these imported religion that is causing so much confusion today

Perfect. Locally made and foreign will compete side by side. When is the pilgrimage coming?

olumaxi: Its now obvious that Ogbeni and his APC members r just gamblin on how to govern..they ought to av known that road constructions and public holidays wont put food on d table of d masses..what we need him to do is to provide good jobs for d youth(not o-yes wch dia wards canneva do)..i think its tym we get rid of these fake people b4 they ruin our lives in this country

Well said, bro..this is what(hunger) we(the indegens) av been enjoying for d past 2yrs, market women, civil servant,skill worker av been complaining of slow trading, little or no money, while d gov. n his aides carry osun money go lagos to flenjo,he doesn't stay in osun for weekend(from thursday)..may GOD deliver us from them oooh..! Orelse hunger to kill person(civil servant,market women n skill worker or labour) ooo..! Omoluabi indeed..!

This an issue we need to look at with all seriousness and not some purpose purposelessness as my Hon Patrick do say, the Isese day has been declared by the State of Osun Governor Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola (as he wants to be called) is for religious harmony and tolerance. All I know is that this man wants a level playing ground for all religions of the country. If we have Christmas, Ileya festival why shouldn't they (traditional worshipers) have a day of their own,a day they can call theirs.
I won't but comment on the way it was done, the Government of the State of the Virtuous should have made this announcement a week before so that it would not affect the economic activities of that day. Bank doors are shut, Government establishments are closed for that day and some other important center for both Administrative businesses are not left out.
Next time when there would be a public holiday.....let the people know at least a week before.
Expecting you critics to criticize.

daywatcher:

where has Christ taken you that a traditionalist has not been to or even got there before you?

Christ has taken him/her and others to a place where they comfortably disrespect their own traditions and ancestors and worship everything imported. That is a place where traditional religions never lead.

Dyt:

I hate hypocrites

I hate hypocrites too

Okay, traditionalists have given us a public holiday, same with christians and muslims. All you atheists we need a public holiday from y'all.

God will safe this country, Public Holiday has become a child play. What a pitty the most backward state in the country declare public holiday for traditional religion when people are seriously praying to demolish their family idols. Uhmmmmm fire on the mountain in the State of Omoluabi. From living spring to Omoluabi.......

Governor Aregbesola should be commended for this. All religions have the same purpose. We should not denigrate our traditional religions as they are not in any way inferior to any of the imported ones.

The last time i checked, Japan is an advanced society despite 98% of the population being adherents of SHINTOISM or simply atheists. China has successfully de-emphasized religion in their national life and they are daily progressing.

Europeans are either atheists or agnostics or practitioners of new age religion and progress is being made daily in their national life.

Africans and especially Nigerians are still living under either European or Arabic mental neo-colonialism. We pray and fast most in the world and behold we remain the most backward race.
Black man....emancipate thyself from this mental slavery that ye may wake into a new dawn of thy destiny!!!

ntn cn b done to please human being...am quite sure if u are amng those offered job u wudnt b slandering lyk dis.So who told u dia is no job?

CrazyMan: Bunch of wired looking people dressed in archaic costumes, sitting on bug infested mats and speaking to cowries …why not declare the whole week or month as public holiday so they can serve their deity properly.

*Long hiss*

emphaticall baboon

Rauf is a muslim, yet he allows other faiths to celebrate their religion. He is a model. A good muslim by my own judgement.

About time to remind usurpers and invaders whom the land belongs to

Lie

(1)Is it true witches fly in Osun during the day?

(2) Did the witches specifically asked for today? (Why today ?)

(3)When is it a good time to go to Osun without being harassed by witches?

will you talk about foodstuff and jobs when we ban christmas and easter holidays?

What is their population when compare to other state in the country

am not for or against this traditional worshippers ish but the fact is that it was not fully announced and the awareness was quite low leaving majority of osun residents stranded because the banks and many other institutions didn't work...He should endeavor to make enough announcement next time.

I'm glad to read this. FG pls take note. It is not easy to become a traditionalist. To be one you must be ready to keep your hands clean but how many are ready to do that? Long live ATR!

A typical deluded black man. Where has christ taken Nigerian after 50 years of independence?

CrazyMan:
What has my user name got to do with the post I made?

Its parasites like you who reduce the quality of this forum…you go from board to board derailing threads and displaying your stupidity to members who care to read. You lack the intellect to engage people in a constructive discussion hence you resort to insults when challenged.

I’m done with you…when you get matured enough and need clarifications as to my initial posts about traditionalist feel free to contact me, and I would be glad to educate you. Until then, you can keep displaying to us how miserable and frustrated you are.

The username has to do with everything. You cannot called yourself scorpion and expect people to have a dove-like perception of you.

Bash92: The public holiday was declared as today is the traditional worshippers day, so that the traditional religion worshippers in the state can enjoy the celebration with there gods at home today

This Governor has finally gone round the bend!
