Am posting this thread here so as to be neutral! Posting it in a particular religion section say #Christianity# will make muslims feel like am taking a deep at them.

Nigeria has both Muslim and Christian citizens, in addition to already freethinkers. The Muslim population mainly lives in the northern part of the country, and the Christian population in the south, though this is changing as people become more mobile. However, what baffles me is the assertion of some certain people who authoritatively conclude that Nigeria belongs to the muslim. Even outside the shores of Nigeria, you will hear non-nigerians stating that Nigeria is dominately muslim and northern Nigeria is almost 100%muslims. Has anyone heard of this? How did the arrive at the conclusion when the last census which included religion was well over 40years ago? What are the trying to achieve by that? Could it be a secret agenda? Wetin be una take on this

NIGERIA IS A CHRISTIAN COUNTRY

uuuh.. I really have nothing to say.. Who am I to Judge? I'm a christian, I should perform my duties as a christian and that's what matters...


But the northerners are more in population than us, prolly why they say Nigeria is a muslim country.. But Nigeria is and always will be under the true God! That's what I believe.

"The Muslim population mainly lives
in the northern part of the country" you said

That's why I used "northerners" or if you think it was in a wrong context.. You can disregard it.

Nobody said it's a Muslim dominated country!

Nigerian constitution is somewhat silent about it but there are mentions of mosques, sharing and Muslim and some other things partaining to Islam but Christianity is on a ghost mode in our constitution.

A foreigner after reading through the Nigerian constitution may conclude that Nigeria is an Islamic country, but every nigerian knows that we don't have one religion here.

Btw why will the government allow sharia law in a state we call secular to the extent where the state government sues a cleric to sharia court to be sentenced to death by hanging in kano.
