Even Christians would have cried foul about islamization if any exam was scheduled on Sunday, even if in the evening.

Talkess of Muslims who only have a short window of 1 to 2hrs on Fridays to pray at their Mosque, only to have those same hours occupied by exams.
Do you go to work on Sundays? Is this country an Islamic country?

This is arrant nonsense.
Absolute fvckery and ridiculous fanaticism..

Its a shame that WAEC succumbed to the subtle Islamization ploy.

How many WAEC candidates observe Ju'maat?
Why should a student in school even want to leave school to attend Ju'maat?
Let alone a student who has exams.

In saner climes, WAEC should be sued to court for altering timetables for a reason as flimsy as this.

With the way the country is tilting, very soon Fridays will be considered work-free days and it will be considered an offence if the rule is flouted.
Very soon airlines will be forced to postpone or cancel Friday flights so that passengers can attend Ju'maat.

MURIC should get one fact clear;
Nigeria is a secular state and will always remain one!!!
Friday is a weekday and exams can hold on any day of the week (except Sunday which is globally considered the Sabbath day.)

You have not answered mine...Nigeria is not and can never been a "Christian country" and should not start now to exhibit such tendencies especially with special interest groups like the one you belong to trying to impose your belief system into our national lives. Quick question how do you do dua on an international flight during Juma'at?

But sunday, which is a day christians attend church is a work free day. Don't you think muslims deserves friday as work free day too?

Because a secular state called Nigeria employs the Christian calendar and Christian work week inherited from the Christian Europeans.

No Muslim country works on Fridays, and certainly work on Sundays.

So if you already enjoy a Christian advantage in a secular country, must you then proceed to rob Muslims of just a 1hr window when you already have a full day that nobody dares to reduce by 1hr?

Now fix a WAEC exam even on a Sunday evening and watch how CAN and rabid dogs like FFK, would forget that it is just a weekend, and tell you categorically that it is a deliberate attack on Christians due to the holyday that it is.

By the way, I'm a Christian, not just the fanatical and fundamentalist type. I also believe religion itself is a menace to this world.

Oga, if we go seperate ways, it wont solve the problem, as we have northern christians, so we have southern muslims. Be informed that islam is fast growing in the south east. Go to Imo and enugu and see numbers of mosques being built daily.

We need to understand one another, if we do, it will go a long way in promoting peaceful co-existence

How is it lovely? How many student truly observe the prayer by 2? I can’t remember any of my Muslim friends saying they want to leave to go attend the prayer when we are having a class or something.

You will just die of hypertension. When last did you write exam on a Sunday?? Who tod you that Sunday is a global Sabbath day?? Ask your fellow nitwits that have been to Israel on jamboree they tell you that Sunday is a working day in Israel. I then wonder where so called Christians got Sunday Sunday holiday from. Bloody hypocritical fool.

Waec can't not fix exam on Sunday because Sunday is not a school day assuming Sunday is a school day then waec can fix exam on Sunday. But in this post,the exam was fixed on a school day.

Stop mixing the two...there are Christian's who observe their prayers and gatherings on Saturdays and Fridays. Don't let you lack of information deter you from sounding smart.

I belong to the same special interest you belong to, that will never give up 1hr of the full day holyday of Sunday, but expects a fellow recognised religion to sacrifice the very 1hour that is already acknowledged by the government as their prayer hour on Friday.

So WAEC that avoided exams on Sunday, should have also avoided exams on this holy hour in Friday.
