watcha say

Gboliwe:


According to reports, he is a religious fanatic. Those people like the terrorist in aso rock are too dangerous.

ALISMILE:
He took oda pples belief into consideration and that is why he recommends that all major religions shud be thought in sch! Why is dis soo hard for guys to understnd?

chigoizie7:




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?

BALLOSKI:
I watched him live. I'm not sure he said what you have as your number one.

tk4rd:
1. He is correct.. Pastors and priests are all religious leaders. Babalawos and Dibias and Ezenwaanyis.. They should all be paid by the government.
2. He is also correct here. Not only Christian and Islamic Religion should be compulsory. Hindu, Judaism, Buddaism are all religions, and should be made compulsory. Ifa, Arusi, Agballa and other forms of indigenous Traditional African religions should be made compulsory too.
3. Na here he failed it woefully.. Why did he consider only cattle ranches.?? He should also include fish-ponds, poultry farms, and other establishments for all other forms of livestock.

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

Iranu

taofeektaiwo:
Shittu has been in politics way back 1979, he is of high pedigree, played a sig..role in apc and thus selected non has accused him of fanatism let alone terrorist. Sincerely Tonye barcanista u not sacrifice for this country peace as much as he has, neither national fame as he has so pls just enjoy the show till he be confirm as minister

AderibigbeAAA:


My people will not see anything bad in giving 2/3 of their salaries to Pastors and Imams...but will fault paying religion leaders salaries in order to regulated them.

My people will be shouting Morality is declining, our children are not respectful, prostitutions and fornication is bad, I detest lie, I want a God-fearing man or woman. BUT make religious studies compulsory for kids n student in secondary schools, THEY SAY NO.

My people have held news n Event of cattles eating farmers crops n resulting in communal clashes, lose of economic values, dead of many innocent individuals as a result of this. ...But when a man tell u to build ranches , a stop the traditional method of rearing cattles they will make noise.

That was how one NLander was saying wearing Bum short for kids for outings is not bad

THE MAN WAS RIGHT

NIGERIAN CLAIM TO BE RELIGIOUS BUT IN REALITY THEY ARE JUST CHURCH N MOSQUES GOERS

ALISMILE:
I refer u to this;

madridguy:
THE MAN MUST BE HIGH ON EXPIRED OYO WEED. THEY SHOULD SCREENED HIM OUT AND REPLACE HIM WITH A BETTER CANDIDATE JARE. PAY RELIGIOUS LEADER UNDER MY A$$

ichoku:
Have you forgotten that this man was discovered after five months of intensive search

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!

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.

detosho:


Actually, he also mentioned the payment of unemployed graduates and even asked the senate to adopt it as a law. I also don't think he specifically mentioned any religion, religious leaders include Babalawos as well as Imams and Pastors, he even advocated that the Senate should have a chaplain and an imam pray with them for the nation at every sitting. I'm not really comfortable with sponsoring religion with state funds, but I agree with him on placing the burden of national morality and Godliness on the shoulders of religious leaders, afterall they are the ones to whom the politicians run to for prayers and who are yet too cowardly to tell them boldly that stealing state resources is bad, evil and outrightly devilish
