[s]PDP is not dividing Nigeria along religious lines. Nigeria has always been divided along religious lines. The APC presidential hopeful, Buhari, accentuated this division through his actions and rants over the years. Let's take a little look at history:

Muhammadu Buhari of the APC used Sharia to rise to political fame in 2000/2001. He was the one who advised Muslims to vote for those who will promote their religion: [http://allafrica.com/stories/200201210250.html]. He also called for Sharia in all states in Nigeria [http://allafrica.com/stories/200108270355.html]. These are indeed divisive comments.

Even the colonial masters saw the religious lines and allowed Islam to fester in the North. Ditto for the military governments. They recognised the differences in religion in the country, hence we had: Gowon/ Hassan Katsina; Murtala/Obasanjo; Obasanjo/ Yar'Adua; Babangida/Ukiwe and later Babangida Aikhomo; Abacha/Diya and later Abacha/ Akhigbe. Ironsi was was a special case because of how he came to power and he didn't last. In fact, it was your man, Buhari, who frowned at this, hence his second in command was a Northern Muslim, Tunde Idiagbon. Even in civilian regimes, it was so: Belewa/Zik, Shagari/Ekwueme; Obasanjo/Atiku and YarAdua/Jonathan. So saying that PDP divided you along religious line is a fallacy.

Did the PDP start the No Hijab, No vote issue in Lagos? Did PDP start the religious brouhaha in Osun Schools since the coming of Aregbesola?


Islamic riots in Nigeria date back to 1953 in Kano. In the 1970s and 80s we had the Maitatsine riots. In 1991 we had the Reinhard Bonke riots in Kano caused by Islamic intolerance. In 1995 Gideon Akaluka was Killed in Kano by Muslim fundamentalists. In 1999 Yerima led other Muslim governors to declare Sharia in nine Northern States, telling Christians that they were now in Muslim territories and must behave. Remember the Miss World Riots of 2002? What about the Danish (Mohammed) cartoon riots in 2005? We have seen the mayhem caused by Boko Haram since 2009. Each riot tells non-Muslim that they are not wanted in certain parts of the country.


So, division along religious has always been part of Nigeria. The PDP did not start it and will not end it. [/s]

Save this missive for the gullible, I don't read gibberish laced with propaganda.
PDP as a party has made religion a pillar of campaign. Religion politics is alien to SW, now it's creeping in, courtesy of PDP.

Talking about facts...here are some
APC (Arewa Peoples Congress) is not an opposition
Party. I am saying it for the umpteenth time APC is a failed experiment there is no amount of lies or propaganda against the PDP that will make me cast my vote for APC. They are the ones championing the instability in this administration thereby making it un-governable, they have traded the peace of our beloved country for their insatiable quest for power and yes they will fail......lemme tell u how;
Come February 2015 the PDP is going to sweep the whole of the middle belt..of course the SS & SE is not negotiable The SW will be divided, one half for APC and the other half PDP now tell me how APC is an opposition Party......If u know what I mean.

Goodluck Jonathan => Christian => 2010-date

Out of 14, we have 7 Christians and 7 Muslims

In South west, it is said that between 1979 - 1983 all the SW states (Ogun, Oyo, Ondo) were ruled by Christian-Christian tickets. Until the advent of Amosun, Ogun state had never had a muslim governor! Just 4 years ago, before Aregbesola, Osun was a under a Christian-Christian ticket (Oyinlola and Obada).

Between 1999 to date, South west has had more christain governors than muslims (Under AD/ACN and PDP)
1999
Ekiti=>Niyi Adebayo=>AD=>Christian
Ogun=>Olusegun Osoba=>AD=>Christian
Ondo=>Adebayo Adefarati=>AD=>Christian
Osun=>Adebisi Akande=>AD=>Christian
Oyo=>Lam Adesina=>AD=>Muslim
Lagos=>Bola Tinubu>AD=>Muslim

2003
Ekiti=>Ayo Fayose=>PDP=>Christian
Ogun=>Gbenga Daniel=>PDP=>Christian
Ondo=>Olusegun Agagu=>PDP=>Christian
Osun=>Olagunsoye Oyinlola=>PDP=>Christian
Oyo=>Rasheed Ladoja=>PDP=>Muslim
Lagos=>Bola Tinubu>ACN=>Muslim

2007
Ekiti=>Segun Oni=>PDP=>Christian
Ogun=>Gbenga Daniel=>PDP=>Christian
Ondo=>Olusegun Agagu / Olusegun Mimiko=>PDP / LP=>Christian
Osun=>Olagunsoye Oyinlola / Rauf Aregbesola=>PDP / ACN=>Christian / Muslim

Ondo=>Olusegun Mimiko=>LP=>Christian
Osun=>Rauf Aregbesola=>ACN=>Muslim
Oyo=>Abiola Ajimobi=>ACN=>Muslim
Lagos=>Babatunde Fashola>ACN=>Muslim


PDP has produced more Christain governors in SW than other parties. Does that mean PDP is a Christian party?

All this religious antics are crap if you ask me. What is most important is the credibilty and the performance of the one in charge. Little wonder most south westerners doesn't even realise the fact above that there have been more christian governors.

FFk maliciously said APC governors are made up of 80 % muslims in order to manipulate the poplulace toward voting PDP against the facts above. What he maliciously lfet out is the fact that in South-East and South South governors have been 100% christians (and almost certainly, their deputies too!)

So Where is the Ismalization of Nigerian? In fact, should the majority of the Northan muslim population vote against PDP since PDP is the one playing the religion politics?

That is interesting! There is nothing wrong if I expose the hypocrisy of Buhari. Your job, if you are so concerned, is to point out where I am wrong-- with facts. There is a reason why Nigerian's have serially rejected your Buhari despite his claims to integrity. I will continue to bust his claims. If it pains you, you can go to the nearest chemist to buy panadol. It isn't expensive. Demolish me with facts. If you bring fiction, I demolish you.[/s]

Let me tell you something about any Nigerian leader's attempt to Chrstianise or Islamise this country. It won't end well. And it would bite everyone in the back....elite and non-elite.

So, can we please GROW UP.....and discuss the issues here? Like our seriously oil dependent economy, and our lack of electrical power?
