The church challenged the federal and
state-owned institutions in the North to
publicly publish the list of those
offered admissions, as it stated that
complaints had been made by
Christians
- ECWA further lamented over the
violent antics of Fulani herdsmen and
also took the federal government to
task over the Boko Haram menace
The Evangelical Church Winning All
(ECWA) has alleged that Christians are
being denied admissions to study
professional courses, by Northern
universities, Punch reports.
The allegation was made in a
communiqué signed by ECWA’s
President, Dr. Jeremiah Gado, and its
General Secretary, Rev. Yunusa Nmadu,
after its five-day Pastors International
Conference which took place at Bingham
University, Nasarawa state.

as 4 states get new CP’s
NAIJ.com gathers that the church also
alleged that Northern universities and
state governments also deny employment
to Christian applicants.
Is also lamented over the violent antics
of Fulani herdsmen, and took the federal
government to task over its claim that
the terrorist sect, Boko Haram, had been
technically defeated.
The statement read: “We have noticed
with great dismay, the negative
happenings in our country, especially the
northern part of this country.
“It is the issue of admission into
universities and other tertiary institutions,
whereby qualified candidates are refused
entry on the basis of their faith especially
into professional courses.
“This does not augur well for national
unity nor does it promote the tenet of
equity and fairness. Many Christians have
complained, and we see this happening in
many universities and other tertiary
institutions of the North.
“We challenge the federal and state-
owned institutions to publicly publish the
list of those offered admissions.
“Closely related to this is the issue of
employment, where again, many qualified
persons are denied employment on the
basis of their faith.
“As a denomination, we condemn these
practices and call on the federal
government to check these happenings as
they constitute a grave threat to the unity
of our dear country."
It continued: “The recent call for the
restructuring of our nation ‘Nigeria’ is a
noble one. As an indigenous church, we
are aware of the injustices that have
created dissatisfaction among the
Nigerian people.
“We believe that the only way to maintain
our corporate identity as one indivisible
nation, is to restructure and promote
equity and the enforcement of the rule of
law.
“This restructuring might not necessarily
be done in the way that people are
suggesting; but we need a restructuring
that is based on the foundation of equity
and honesty, where everyone is treated
equally.
“We need to return to the ideals of our
founding fathers so as to keep the nation
moving.”
It added: “The Fulani herdsmen emerged
from nowhere and continue to unleash
mayhem on innocent citizens in the
central and other parts of this country.
“The silence of government in this regard
leaves so much to be desired. It seems
approval has been given by the
government. If not, why has there not
been any conviction in a court of law?
“The federal and state governments should
be proactive and be up to their game of
protecting lives and properties.
“A renowned Islamic leader, speaking on
the Numan killings in Adamawa State,
opined that the killings of the Fulani must
be handled properly or else the worst
could happen.
“As a denomination, we want to support
the clamour for ranching rather than
open grazing, so as to reduce the constant
clashes between the farmers and
herdsmen.”
On the Boko Haram issue, ECWA stated:
“The government had informed the
populace that it had curtailed the
activities of this terrorist group.
“But it appears it has not been able to do
so as the terrorist group continues to
unleash their mayhem on innocent
citizens in the north-eastern part of
Nigeria.”

Meanwhile, NAIJ.com previously
reported that some leaders in the
northern part of Nigeria were accused by
the president of the Evangelical Church
Winning All, Rev. Jeremiah Gado, of
hiding under Sharia law to discriminate
against Christians in the region, as well
as denying them access to government
services.
According to the clergyman, the level of
persecution of Christians in Northern
Nigeria was second to none in Africa.
He stressed that the lives of Christian
leaders in the North were constantly
under threat while some Northern ruling
elite “hide under Sharia law to
discriminate against Christians.”

after reading, i don kuku conclude say your village people don take your destiny play bet9ja

The problem with head slammers is that, in environment where they are majority, they can never give Christians a breathing space, but once they are minority, you will see them always struggling for their right, they can even go beyond their boundary fighting for what they can never give others if they are in such position.

This is how headslammers operate.....

Their method is that, at ist stage they will claim to be tolerant and liberal if they they don't have enough number to fight. Second stage, once they find out that their population has increased(You know they marry more than one wife, expect more children) and surpassed that of Christians, they will start unveiling their real colour by imposing a Shari law on Christians.
Third stage, implementation of sharia law... and you know what that means.
The worst is that some Christians can't read the hand writing on the wall when a disease is preventable because they are busy forming tolerance while headslammers are spreading their wings. But once these christian start becoming victims of their carelessness, they will start crying like babies .. We should all go and read about Turkey, a Christian country how it became a Muslim country today.
But no matter how headslammers struggle, they can never rule tule this world

Here in SW, we know how we slug it out with Yoruba muslins.
We can never relax and buy that deceptive Idea ",Yoruba is Yoruba". because we know the truth.
Yoruba Christians are wiser, its no more business as usual.

all those heading Christian organisation are nothing but hypocrites.
nonsense.

this is very true.
i have a friend who was given admission in gombe, the sch refused to give christians access to hostel accommodation, they said its strictly reserved for muslims.

Oga lienus has started again, how else can you rally the sheeple than to create persecution complex.

He was given admission.... In other words the clergy just lied

read the entire story b4 commenting pls. the percentage/ratio is the main issue

Useless people and useless allegation.



They won't tell you how many Muslims they give admission in their schools.


They always come up with faceless allegations. Name schools and locations...or shut up.

hypocrisy is in their blood. They tell you they're people of love, but houses more hate in their hearts than Satan does.

I see, wailing is a right for muslims only.


Meanwhile a friend from maiduguri( the southern part) once told me that it is hard for a christian to secure jobs from the government which is controlled by the muslims from the northern part.

What do you expect from a man who rode to power on lies and expects to be relected on the altar of division, tribalism , sectarianism, bigotry and hate instead of merit .

and you didn't ask him if the entire civil service of borno state is entirely Muslim dominated. Ask his if there are Christian commissioners .

If he's suffering from tribalism from kanuri who are in the majority, it's understandable cos kanuri people, like the jews, are more tribalistic in nature.

The bura in areas like biu would tell you what they go through, too.

Your friend is telling the half truth.

From the time Muhammed started his satanic religion he had been given mandates to terrorise the Jews and the Christians.

All the posts above keep denying what the Op posted. Can you deny what your members are doing against Christians globally presently?
If the reports of your members atrocities are known facts why calling the OP a liar?

Even here on "nairaland" it is practised. Your Islamic section doesn't grant admission to Christians to partipate or make comment in your section. It shows that if it were something very important and about destiny that is how you will deny the Christians.

Most Muslims are liars but I want you to keep it in minds that you have started a journey you will regret in the future if we Christians decide to retaliate.

You can condemn it now b4 it becomes an epidemic that will destroy the Muslims especially your Islamic nations like Saudi Arabia ,Iraq etc

Failure to condemn and caution your devilish members will backfire one day.

Please shut up if truth is something you can not fanthom, how would anybody make an allegation without a single case as evidence just making generalized statements. Common on because you are a Christian shouldn't deprive you of stating the truth.

The Caliphate and the Miyetti Allah Fulani Herdsmen will never KNOW Unity of Nigeria until they have E M I R A T E S in all the Southern Towns and Cities of the Rivers Niger and Benue.
May be we too in the South, don't know that this Government is endevouring to lower the Standards of Tertiary Institutions in the South to make them unattractive to Northern Youths and generally less competitive.

sorry for urself!
We all know how your so-called religion kill because of Virgins of after life.
We equally know that your prophet called Muhammad is a murderer, rapist and agent of darkness. Why did he kill a Jew and took his away from him? Sorry for urself.
Am not nepotic like you. But, lemme tell you the truth which you know and you are running away from.
My religion has existed before urs.

Religion of piss:>

^

Your manners reflects your failed religion where the god you worship shouts my lord my lord why have thou forsaken me, a clear indication of failure where a god begs another for help and was failed. Hinduism existed long before your failed religion and the concept of trinity existed long before yours did but hey ignoramus are the tank and file of your failed religion.

We know how they roll down there.

Anything northern in your name, religion or look will work against you. You don't give us what we give you here.

maybe she had an encounter with the wrong person. Most educated people in borno are the chibok and biu . They're mixed. You can't do without them.

the biggest person in our hospital is a northerner, can you say that about your state? I mean the biggest hospital in my state, you are the one filled with anger, the truth is I don't care.

lol! Most hospital here are headed by the southerners. Ask the medical practitioners of southern extraction, and they'd tell you there's a brain drain northward.

My friend from the south is working in katsina right now. Now, tell me if a northerner will be employed in a government hospital in your place.
