A friend of mine was posted to Kebbi, She complains bitterly that she won't be able to serve in that state. I have to ask her why. She says the State is a Sharia State, she mentions a lot of evil things going on there.
I went online and do a little research and below is what I found out.
The state was created on 27 August 1991 and came under Sharia rule in December 2000. Although it is sometimes referred to as the “land of equity”, Christians, who make up a quarter of the population, say they are treated as second-class citizens.

some examples of discrimination in Kebbi:

• When the state came into existence, three churches were relocated from the heart of the city to the outskirts. The presidential lodge was built where the churches used to stand.

• In the state capital, Brinin Kebbi, all but two churches are located on the outskirts, clustered together in one place.

• Congregations in general find it hard to get permission to build churches.

• While most school compounds have mosques, there is not a single church in government school compounds and Christian students have to meet together in classrooms.

• While Islamic Religious Knowledge is taught in government schools, Christian Religious Knowledge is not.

• Christian programmes are hardly ever aired on state television or radio stations.

• Job opportunities and admissions are mainly given to non-Christians. In offices, Christians are not duly promoted or paid equal salaries. In cases where they do get promoted, these promotions are often not implemented.

• There is no Christian cemetery in Birnin Kebbi. Christians have to be taken to Jega Local Government Area, 20 miles away, to be buried.

• Since its creation, only one Christian from Kebbi has ever been promoted to the State Cabinet.
Please if you are a Christian or someone from Kebbi, kindly educate me on what is going on in that State.
Mod: front page, please.

What you wrote here is absolute rubbish.

In my secondary school days no government teaches Islamic religion knowledge but Christian religion all through.

The state is a muslim state and teaching IRK is in order.

If you are in kebbi and want to study crk then go and read your bible.

Let me tag our mislims brothers who are on their way to go join Hamas

Evil right activists dem

If the person writing this is talking about SW states and Edo states with both high number of Muslims and Christian population then it is understandable and will be pursued to logical conclusion.

Kebbi is a full muslim state with minor xtian population.


Stop pushing unnecessary argument to where no issue is existing.

Nonsense.

Is it by force to be there?

Wetin dey Kebbi sef?

Another trash.

The scenario you painted can only be taken Serious if it is happening in SW states and Edo state plus part of North Central states.


Anything aside these are purely useless and clout chasing.

Wait what exactly is ur point? That it is OK for State in Nigeria to claim to b a Muslim state and as such suppress Christians there but Muslims in Ilorin can protest over a hijab ban in CHRISTIAN skools??

My statement is clear, the case op painted will be taken Serious if it is happening in SW states , Edo state and some north central states... because these places have a large number of indigenous Muslims .

But in a case of kebbi, look for another issue.. Nothing like that .

If you don't like what we do then relocate

I have already answered that question.

Muslims in kebbi nearly looks like none is existing.

You are clearly unbalanced.


There is no way the state can have so little a christian population that will justify stifling them economically, socially and educationally.

I was posted to kebbi before I redeployed. My PPE was gss tadruga in zuru Emirate.
Zuru is dominated by Christians and you can buy alcohol or see chalets where prostitutes stay.

Irrelevant thread, go to Kebbi and meet sharia death. Nonsense

Kebbiprince:

I have bookmarked the statement for future purposes when I will link it to your state if such thread arises.

Be ready to open your alternate Monikers to cry foul.

My submission is balanced and places I mentioned formally balances it.

All this unknown states in the north with most zero human capital development. Who goes there?!?
When this country finally divides, watch them go into oblivion.

CRK is not allowed to be taught in a government school that use oil money from a Christian State to fund. It is quite unfortunate that I have to share a country with low life good for nothing pig in form of a human being.

.. Because they are the minority, they have no right in their State. I wonder how some of you sleep at night. It is the greedly western world that join us together that I should blame.

. When IBO and other Ethnic nationality are demanding self-governed they know why. I have some Moslem friends though learned but with what I am seen, read, heard and that good for nothing president (He is not my president only occupying the seat)is doing there is no hope for Nigeria.

Do you teach IRK in your own state?

Secondly keep shut if your from the states I mentioned earlier.

Even if it was only one Christian living there, so you deny his/her right because the person is a minority, where is your conscience?

Enough to feed your entire parasitic good for noting terrorist. Why should you deny them of their right?
