Stop giving moslems the impression that christians are the cause of religious intolerance. The National Assembly, Abuja is designed after the Capitol, where the United States Congress meet. And like the House of Senate and House Representatives in the United States are situated at the left and right wings beside the domes, so are our House of Senate and House of Representatives situated at the left and right wings of the dome in the National Assembly Complex. 1 Like |

fr3do: Although domes are a feature of Islamic Architecture, they are not a synonymous with mosques. In fact, it is a cardinal feature of Byzantine Architecture. Which is a form of early Roman Architecture. I have no doubt all students of Architecture and design on this forum must have all studied this at one point or the other in the course of their History of Architecture classes. Even till this day, most orthodox cathedrals in Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean regions have domes. |

fr3do: Oh c'mon!!! Stop talking kak already!!! You are still shamelessly holding onto your bigoted view after several forumites have tried to enlighten you. You are just as guilty as the northerners you are accusing of having an Islamic agenda if after all these posts, you are still not convinced that your earlier position is a misguided one. |
