1. Formation of Organisation of Islamic Countries
OIC was established in 1969 through a Saudi Arabian initiative, following the burning of the Al- Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, which was considered an attack on the Muslim world. The Headquarters of the organisation are in Jeddah. The first meeting of the organization was held in Morocco in 1969.
2. Gen Yakubu Gowon Yakubu Gowon sent a Nigeria
delegation as an observer led by Alhaji Abubakar
Gumi to the OIC in its first meeting in 1969 in
Morocco. Despite opposition. He, Gowon, a Christian
from Plateau State took the first step by sending
Gumi to represent “Nigeria Muslims”.
3. General Muritala Muhammed to Gen Muhammad BUHARI Regimes
The administrations of Muritala/Obasanjo, Obasanjo/Yaradua, Shagari/Ekweme and Buhari/Idiagbon refused to sign to Nigeria’s full membership of the OIC despite pressure and intense lobbying from Saudi Arabia. They maintained that Nigeria is a secular state and not an Islamic country.
4. General Ibrahim Babangida
French news agency reported that Nigeria has been admitted into the organization as its 46th member in January 1986. Ebitu Ukiwe from Abia State, then a navy commodore and second in command to the then military President, Ibrahim Babangida, had it rough with that administration when he declared publicly that the decision to join OIC was not discussed at any level of government. Mr. Ukiwe’s denial of th decision reportedly led to his forceful exit from government.
5. General Sani Abacha Maintained Nigeria’s membership despite calls for withdrawal from various groups including Christian Leaders.
6. Obasanjo/Atiku Abusive
At the G-8 Islamic countries in Egypt in 2001, Obasanjo identified himself carrying Nigeria as an Islamic country by attending that meeting. His attendance cemented Nigeria’s Status as a member of the OIC and an Islammic State.
7. Yaradua/Jonathan Administration

Conference (OIC), the same way IBB registered with the organisation in 1986, the Nigerian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Abdullahi M. Garba Aminchi , quietly visited Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) and signed the new OIC charter on behalf of the Nigerian government.
Although this event was published on OIC’s website the same day and widely reported in other Middle East media, it was not reported in the Nigerian
media. The Nigeria Foreign Minister as at then Chief Ojo Maduekwe refused to speak on the matter.
8. Jonathan/Sambo Administration

General IBB signed up Nigeria as full member in
January 1986.

WHO WANTS TO ISLAMIZE NIGERIA? (If there is
anything like that)
Buhari has once again been vindicated.
It pays to be educated, and not just regurgitate
falsehoods.

I think Nigerians should concentrate more on the party that is offering reasonable policies and issue-based
campaigns

and who called on Muslims not to vote Christians?

who stated that his objective was to introduce Sharia to all Nigeria?

of the two, am sure Nigerians know who intends to Islamize Nigeria

and remove freedom to be Christian
