Nobody Can Islamise Nigeria: W. F Kumuyi by IsThisChange: 7:26am On Sep 02, 2016
General Overseer of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has said that no individual or government can Islamise Nigeria.

Pastor Kumuyi stated this on Thursday, while fielding questions from newsmen shortly after arriving the Margaret Ekpo International Airport, Calabar, for a crusade in the South-South Zone.

He said nobody can impose a religion on a country without the collective will of the people.

The man of God said, “is it possible to also Christianise Nigeria? I think it depends on the will of the people; you cannot impose a religion on a country without the will or backing of the people. Worshiping God is personal thing, so you can do any legitimate thing with your religion, Islamising a country takes a process.”

Kumuyi said for the continuous existence of Nigeria as one indivisible nation, Nigerians must learn to respect each other’s religious values, which according to him had been one of the major problems bedeviling the country.
According to him: “Christianity nor Islam does not advocate killing of people. Love for our neighbours is very important. We should think and understand that we need to respect each other religious values. People should be allowed to make their own choices.”

This came as he expressed optimism that Nigeria would soon overcome its present economic woes.

Kumuyi said the current economic recession would make Nigeria stronger and called on the federal government to come up with a realistic economic blueprint that would turn the tide around for good.

“I believe that there’s always going to be a way out of the present economic situation. When you think about situations like this there are different avenues that reach to a climax, so we must have gotten it wrong somewhere but I won’t say this is the particular place that we got it wrong.

“I believe that as a nation there’s still going to be a way out of our present difficult economic situation and I am encouraging the people that no matter the situation, things can still be better, ‘’, he added.

This is a man of God that has clearly differentiated between Nation building and ppolitics.
He doesn't speak until he is asked and he doesn't go about calling people in Government names like one man from the east that has lost his voice. A reverend for that matter.
Ekushe sir. I pray for more grace upon your life.
DCLM: your spiritual welfare is our concern.

We Christians love to live in denials. Nigeria has already been Islamized. Or are we waiting till they say Arabic is our official language. Or ask us to teach only Arabic and ask us only to go to mosque and close all church even Saudi can't do such. But the fact that Christians can't practice in nigerian state makes Christianity and Christians endangered religion/people a situation where only moose-slims are free to practice is islamisation
