It is a faith base University agreed but do you know even the founder Dr Deji Adeleke do fast during Ramadan despite been a Four Square Member and when he gives Scholarships no body is exempted base on religion,do you know the former pro chancellor Alh Isiaka Adeleke is a Muslim .Well i believe religion is personal we should stop trivializing issues.Anyway I suspect this is a political statement.

Gaddafithe2nd:

Mr. man why did the school hide all their rules and regulations before the students applied. Didn't you read where Muric stated it.
That school is controlled by religious bigots. They have trampled on their religious rite which is against Nigeria constitution.

There shouldn't be compulsion in religion.

HAKYN1:



You are a bigger terrorist

dominique:


So Christians don't attend Atiku's private university situated in the core north or Atiku is not a northern Muslim again? Topics like this only successfully reveal who the real intolerant people are. STOP excusing bad behaviour because it is being done by someone that align with your beliefs. If by chance Atiku is forcing the non Muslims in his school to go for Jumat and not practice their faith, I will be amongst the people that will criticize him because not only is it unfair on them, the Quran preaches against it.

dominique:


Then they should explicitly state that they don't want Muslims in their school. They collect exorbitant fees from the students and infringe on their religious rights, does that seem right to you? The school is not a church owned university, so why compel the students to practice another religion other than theirs?

Christians are always quick to scream ISLAMIZATION buy they're the worst sets of religious bigots out there.

Vado:
MURIC is a fat liar. It is clearly stated on the school website that they are a faith-based University. And just like someone said, Al-Hikmah University in Ilorin forces everyone in respective of faith to wear hijabs. Ishaq Oloyede is just a foolish war-monger.

Biglittlelois:



What is this one saying, so because the school does not have a church name means they cannot choose their own rule? Were they forced at gun point to go there? They should leave if they are not comfortable with it, simple, Or you think a northern muslim will open a university and build a church for christians there? Lmao yeye dey smell.

helinues:


So you expect Muslims to have a mosque inside redeem university just because they have muslim students right?

Biglittlelois:



Yes, same thing that happens in a Muslim owned school, deal with it.

laudate:

The school did not hide it. Right on their website, it is clearly stated that they are a faith-based university. Can't the prospective students ask what kind of faith, are they practicing before filling admission forms??

willyjacs:
am a Christian but forcing non christains to church is not good.... Al ikmat uni in kwara is a Muslim uni but christains are never forced to go to mosques.

Forcing our faith on others because they came for academic knowledge is not good....that is the oppression we've been preaching against, we shouldn't be doing it.

Even if there's no mosque there, forcing them to church is totally wrong.
I wouldn't want another person to treat me that way either......

Biglittlelois:



Yes all the students must be atheist, it is a private University and you have to follow their rules if you want to go there.

Gaddafithe2nd:

Keep shut! Thank God I did history of Education when I was in College of Education. What Nigerian Christian missionary schools are doing, they learnt it from the Christian missionary that brought Christianity to Nigeria. During that period many non-Christian kids were forced to convert to Christianity before they are enrolled to missionary schools. It was Henry Carr that stopped that rubbish, he insisted religion shouldn't be mixed with education.

Most Christians and other religion adherents once learnt in Muslim Universities in Cairo, Fez, Baghadad and Cordoba. They were never forced to be Muslims, history is there for you to learn and stop spewing trash.

dominique:


And what should those studying there do? Withdraw? Continue going to church till they graduate? Is this what you would have commented if it was a Muslim owned university forcing Christian students to go to mosque. You people are always quick question to tag others as intolerant and extremists but in reality you do worse.

awoo47:
its nt possible

Private UNI lyk dis hv a booklet containing d regulations of d schools even Public skuls get sef

dis is to avoid law suit issues

Biglittlelois:


Do you really investigate something before coming here to type? All you said is rubbish because the Atiku University you mentioned is not 100% owned by him, that university is in partnership with the Americans that is why it is widely known as an AMERICAN UNIVERSITY that is why they have both churches and mosques there.

The story is Adeleke university, if you don't want Muslims to be Muslims don't admit them into your university simple.

fergie001:
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has accused Adeleke University, Ede, Osun State, of persecuting Muslim students in the institution.

This was contained in a statement on Tuesday by the Director of MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola.

“Adeleke University is a serial violator of Allah-given fundamental rights of Muslim students. This institution forces Muslim students to attend church on Sundays. It makes it mandatory for students living in the hostel to attend church every Wednesday and Saturday”, it read.

“The practice of any other faith on campus except Christianity is banned. Muslim students must not be seen observing Salat. Hijab is a taboo in Adeleke University. Yet all these Islamophobic practices are smartly hidden from prospective students of the institution until they have paid the exorbitant school fees and can no longer withdraw.”

MURIC called on the National Universities Commission (NUC) to come to the rescue of Muslim students in Adeleke University.

“In particular, we invite NUC to take a look at the students’ handbook of this institution, especially pages 7, 49, 50, 56 and 60. These pages, to our mind, contain rules that infringe on the religious freedom of Muslim students. As a regulating body, NUC has a duty to intervene in this matter as part of its oversight function on Nigeria’s universities.

“Such intervention is necessary at this juncture to enhance quality control. We remind NUC that man is body, soul and spirit. These three organs must function without hinderance for students to perform maximally. As things stand today, Muslim students of Adeleke University have been deprived of the spiritual component of their humanity. We therefore call on NUC to investigate this issue as a matter of urgency. Religious repression is a potential threat to peace, law and order.

“MURIC is aware that such practices of religious intolerance exist in a few other private universities. We therefore advise Muslim parents and Muslim students to take necessary precaution. They should investigate very well before picking universities of interest.

“Many private universities do not bear Christian names but they pursue Christian evangelical goals. Worse still, they lack the spirit of tolerance. Muslim candidates who have already chosen private universities where they are likely to become victims of Islamophobia are, therefore, advised to apply for a change of university before it is too late.”

How many Nigerian schools give booklets to students that are not yet their students? Are you not a Nigerian? Even our public universities don't give booklets to non-admitted or prospective students.

Afonja007:
so Islam was before chtristian so European countries learnt from Muslim university and later went back to colonize the same muslim teachers that thought them,France colonized Algerian Morocco Tunisia Britain colonized Egypt till today America is still colonizing Saudi, so tell me the most popular Muslim school in SW Nigeria that will be like kings collage queens collage, the only good Muslim school is ansarudeen koranic school ijora badiya Ile keun

dominique:


Don't ever quote me if you cannot post with civility
Did you or did not say a northern Muslim can never allow Christians to come to his university? If Atiku was as bigoted as most of you, would he even have built a university to accommodate other faithuls regardless it's affiliation? If he didn't want Christians, he wouldn't have partnered with American University and guess what, people will still enrol.

Your approach to paint certain people as intolerant only reveals who the real intolerant people are. Point one finger at a person, the remaining four is pointing back at you.

xyz123456:

Tell me the Muslim owned school that forces Christian to go to Mosque??

xyz123456:

Nobody is saying they should build a mosque. We are saying they should not force everyone to go to Church

fergie001:
What determines morality?

Can someone tell me the name of the church situated in the Crescent University?

I don't know what to tell this man,
Let me wait for the elders.......

Biglittlelois:


[s]Lmao Atiku never wanted to just build any type of university, he wanted a very standard one that is why he partnered with Americans to build what he has today, if he wanted to build a university solely to his name, what makes you think he wouldn't do as he feels like e.g making it a strictly muslim school or do you know him so well to know his mind,?

I do not see how people paint another person intolerant when it comes to privately owned christian and muslim university so this your argument is baseless to say the least.

FYI I will continue to quote you and type whatever I feel like, you know why? Because you do not control what I do on my phone[/s].

helinues:
MUMURIC master himself?

Is the University a Muslim University?

Is there any church in Saudi Arabia not to talk of any Saudi Universities . Are there no Christians residing in Saudi?

Btw, What is stopping the Muslims to have as many as possible private universities?

Professor Ishaq, Professor of Trouble

Fountainofyouth:



Nobody gives two fvcks what history says or what other people do in their country, we are talking about present day Nigeria where private schools are mostly owned by Christians AND Muslims and they are expected to follow their rules regardless of what it is, simple.
