Is Yoruba Nation A Christian Agenda?— Islamic Body Warns Church Over Creation Of Yoruba Nation Christian Association


...The Islamic group claimed that its establishment is coming before the creation of Yoruba Nation itself.


Nigerian Islamic human rights group, Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has urged the Christian Association Of Nigeria (CAN) to stop the inauguration of a Yoruba Nation Christian Association (YORNCA) by a church in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital.


The association which would be officially launched by The Power Apostolic Church International on Wednesday, July 28, 2021, was criticised by the islamic group, saying the creation of the organisation bearing the name of a non-existent nation, would purportedly suggest the agitation for a Yoruba nation as a Christian agenda.


Prof. Ishaq Akintola, Director of MURIC
The Islamic group claimed that its establishment is coming before the creation of Yoruba Nation itself.

MURIC, however, called on the leadership of CAN to intervene and stop the inauguration process.

According to a statement by the Director of MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola, on Monday, the inauguration plan is reckless, immature and an attempt to put the cart before the horse.

“The inauguration of a certain group to be called the Yoruba Nation Christian Association (YORNCA) is billed to take place on Wednesday, 28th July, 2021 at the Power Apostolic Church International, Arulogun Road, Ojoo, Ibadan, Oyo State. Already, a letter of invitation has been sent out to guests. Unfortunately, however, the letter of invitation has leaked and gone viral on social media.

“We assert that the inauguration of an organisation that bears the name of a non-existent ‘nation’ is, to say the least, reckless, infantile and an attempt to put the cart before the horse. Which one should come first, the ‘nation’ or the organisations that will be formed within it?

“Do we have a Yoruba nation already? Has the Nigerian Constitution which describes the country as ‘one indivisible and indissoluble Sovereign Nation’ been amended yet? Can you build an illegality on an illegality? Can you build something upon nothing? YORNCA or whatever it calls itself should therefore wait. It cannot exist in a vacuum.

“MURIC pays special attention to the last sentence in the last paragraph of the letter of invitation where the organisers gave the reason for forming the organisation (YORNCA): ‘The reason being that, it is now we can catch our Land for the Lord. Shalom!’

“We find this sentence worrisome. Because it presupposes that the real motive behind the agitation for a Yoruba nation is to ‘catch’ Yorubaland ‘for the Lord’. Well, the cat is now out of the bag. All the noise about marginalisation is therefore mere smokescreen intended to deceive Yoruba Muslims in particular and the general public in general.

“So the question must be asked by rational people. Is the Yoruba nation project a Christian agenda? If not, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) should call the Power Apostolic Church International, Ojoo, Ibadan, to order. We are aware that CAN had earlier dissociated itself from all kinds of separatist and insurrectionist projects. That puts CAN in the right position and gives it the moral right to call any church which is promoting chaos to order.

“For the avoidance of doubt, MURIC does not consider the Yoruba agitators as enemies. But we disagree with their methods. They are becoming overzealous and they can only make things worse for the same people they claim to be fighting for. They must eschew violence, threats, blackmail, subterfuge, false propaganda, intimidation and coercion.

“For the records, we reiterate the questions posed by MURIC to Afenifere and other Yoruba groups in our press statements of 16th April, 2021. We asked Afenifere and Yoruba agitators, ‘What do you have in stock for Muslim children and women? What is your plan for hijab? Is it as dictated by CAN? Is there any provision for civil shariah which Yoruba Muslims have been demanding for ages? The response of the agitators to these questions will go a long way in determining their readiness to tolerate Muslims or it will only confirm the plot to continue oppressing us.’

“The above were the questions we asked Afenifere and other Yoruba groups four months ago but no response has been given to date. Then out of the blues came this letter inviting guests to the inauguration of a new version of CAN in the yet to be realised Yoruba ‘nation’ claiming ‘…it is now we can catch our Land for the Lord. Shalom!’

“So we must ask again, is the Yoruba nation project a Christian agenda? Are Muslims and other groups just being used to actualise another crusader dream? Is CAN listening?” the statement read.

Fulani used Islam to conquer hausas. They will still use Islam to conquer the Yorubas. I doubt if they can use Islam on the SE and SS. Even the few Igbo Muslims are returning to Christianity after testing the violent religion.

It's not about posting, can you clarify this comment of yours. Like evidence. Who's their Leader? Where do they hold congresses?


Meanwhile, you all should read line by line. It's a question/An observation from MURIC.

MURIC is an acronym for MUSLIM RIGHTS ISLAMIC CONGRESS.

For God sake, DO YOU WANT THEM TO KEEP QUIET SEEING THIS KIND OF SITUATION?


Ordinary hijab for MUSLIM women, CAN keep dishing out threats yet you want MURIC to keep quiet on this.

IPOB TERRORIST Should continue cos I know no sane Yoruba Christian would see this as TRANSGRESSION

I am a yoruba christain, I support Igboho and yoruba nation, but I support muric on this one......the Yoruba nation agitation is not a religious agitation. What we as yoruba's should be doing is coming together to see how we can remove ourselves from this unholy British creation called nigeria. Afenifere and yoruba agitators should also carry along all our Muslim leaders within the south west.

NaijirianKing:
Any attempts to push Christianity on Muslims in the SW will be strongly rejected and fought against. Muslims being marginalized in SW must come to an end.




Which is why the north must support the Yoruba Muslim candidate bola tinubu for president. It was your same northern leaders that annulled the election of a Yoruba Muslim by the name of abiola and replaced him with a Yoruba christain obasanjo. When it's time to divide Yoruba's and look for northern votes that's when you mofos will remember yoruba muslims. You're a devilish bastard.
