The Senate today, Tuesday, October 20, conducted another round of ministerial screening as two ministerial nominees entertained questions raised on the floor of the House.

Out of the first 21 nominees from ‘batch A’, 19 have been screened while one nominee from Batch B has also been screened, leaving 15 nominees from ‘batch B’, and one (Rotimi Amaechi) from the first list yet to be quizzed and one, Ahmed Musa Ibeto, withdrawn from the list of nominees.

Today, only two ministerial nominees were screened, Oyo state’s Barrister AbdulRaheem Adebayo Shittu and Yobe’s Khadija Abba Ibrahim. However, during Shittu’s ministerial screening, there were three statements made by him that majority of Nigerians might readily disagree with him on. Read the statements made by the Islamic enthusiast below:


1. ‘All religious leaders should be paid officers, they should be paid by the government.’

2. ‘Religion must be made compulsory in our institutions.’
3. ‘I believe that government should establish cattle ranches at the LG Level, State Level and FG Level.’

Are you of the same opinion with the ministerial nominee?

(2) 'Religion must be made compulsory in our institutions

ALISMILE:
u shudnt call that nonsense! I believe its becos the teaching of religion goes unregulated by govt pple frm all sort of ideology ve hijacked religion! I think we need to look at this more deeply!

ziccoit:
1. By paying the religion leaders that means the government would be able to regulate his activity. A Pastor/Imam can not just wake up from wrong side of his bed preaching hate message. The message would have to be channeled through some recognized body who are going to vet it and release it to the public.

2. There is no crime in making religion study compulsory at primary and secondary level of education. By having knowledge of dos and donts of my Neighbour religion would ensure harmony, peaceful coexistence and mutual respect.

3. Yes. Free range method of rearing is the course of communal clashes between the cattle farmers and their host community.

4. BH doesn't represent Islam.


So, it depends on how you view what he said. I believe he makes sense.

Did he take other people's belief into consideration? Na only him get naija? To me, that is nonsense, he should not be made a minister because he is self oriented/centered, he is only particular about what he believes and not the plight of the people he is meant to serve. How could he say such a thing? Religious leaders should be paid? On what grounds? Why didn't he clamour for all unemployed graduates to be paid?

ALISMILE:
for Gods sake how do u jus jump to hang a man jus like that! Why do we tend to hate pple whose views about life re premised on Islam, even though the view is found to be faultless!

TonyeBarcanista:

How do you mean? It is not about Islam but about someone who believe that religion should take center-stage in our government institutions when we all know that Nigeria has no State religion. He's a fanatic and a potential terrorist
