Christians dominate southern Nigeria and the middle belt.

They are gradually outnumbering the Muslims in north east that's why boko haram was created.

In the next 100 years, Nigeria will be a Christian nation. We need to evangelise more and win ! more souls for God

that's the lie they are trying to tell you.
Which election is the most freest in Nigeria? That abiola election.

River state had more votes than kano(most populated northern state) but now children now votes that's why they claim to have high population.

Just imagine if children votes during election in southern Nigeria.

Islam is dying, no one wants to be part of an oppressive religion

Areas of Nigeria which are generally referred to as belonging to the Middle Belt are: Benue State, Plateau State, Taraba State Niger State, Kogi State, Nassarawa State, Kwara State, Adamawa State, and the Federal Capital Territory (Abuja), as well as the southern parts of Kaduna State, Kebbi State, Bauchi State, Gombe State, Yobe State and Borno State.

The definition of the Middle Belt areas are subject to great debate due to the presence of significant number of ethnic Hausa, Fulani and Kanuri groups. In addition, the Yoruba who are the predominant ethnic group in Kwara and Kogi have a strong affinity with the larger Yoruba body and frequently prefer not to be associated with the Middle Belt identity. The population of the middle belt is estimated to be over 35 million or more who are predominantly Christians and some few Muslim converts. The area also has a very large significant number of the Hausa-Fulanis who are roughly 20% percent of the population. The Christians make about 70-75% of the population while the Muslims constitute 25-30% of the population.

Islam as a religion was not supposed to exceed the generation of the first caliph of Abubakar. The apostasy verse had to be created and inserted as a creed thereby killing anyone that abandoned the death cult of a religion. It's the FEAR factor that make people to still practice Islam today. That's why the crave for political power to sustain the religion. Without political power to force, kill, cheat, practice extreme nepotism unhindered, looting to promote Islam, coercive power of state to create relevance and dominance , without which Islam would've been dead and forgotten in the history of humanity. All is fair in Islam....

Why don't Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan refugees go to seek refuge in Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE, Qatar who are equally rich countries butb always prefer Germany or USA that are Catholic Countries..? It's because they want freedom from state power of coercion instead of worshiping God from their hearts

Stop using celebrities/politiciians as basis for religious population in the South West. Lagos,Ogun,Oyo And Osun are majority muslims.

Kwara,Niger,Kogi are equally majority. Muslims in North central while Benue and Plateau are Christain majority with Nassarawa 50:50
