Of course, better to rest an ethnicity coloured pen than to keep on spurting half truths.

When you stand logic on its head....this is what you get....

Eat the humble pie for a change and see the real changes all around you.

Racoon:
".......A LESSON FOR NIGERIA."
The protracted French riots, arson and insurrection is a classical case of what a well ocastrated state injustice and discrimination( especially ethno-politico-religious supremacist agenda as is the case in Nigeria ) can cause to a nation or country.

The Nigerian civil war costed both Biafra and the state a lot in human and economic wastage, but more than 50 years after the war, national integration have been a big problem with the warped mindset that the victims race deserves no national recognition.

Politically, the January 15 1966 military coup is only seen as an Igbo coup hence demonised as such, but the counter-coup and other subsequent ones led by the Hausa-Fulanis were not seen as such because most succeeded hence seen as heroes.

Fast forward to the 2023 era, an Igbo man contested in a presidential election, won in key states of Lagos and Abuja, but was heavily discriminated against because of his ethnic group. The racial and ethnic profiling that followed this controversial election is unprecedented in history. Yet the Nigerian state behaved as if nothing happened. #EndSARS riots were later visualised as Igbo agenda.

Now to the religious angle, many Christains in Nigeria are being delibrately persecuted and killed because of their faith. Yet the state that supposed to maintain a secular balance tends to be clearly promoting ethno-religious supremacist sentiments and agenda. Some classical cases includes the many well chronicled religious uprising down the core North.

The Chibok school girls kidnap, Lead Sharibu, the RCCG woman killed in Kubwa, the Christian woman killed in Zubwa, and last but not the least - the gruesome killing of Deborah Samuel in FCE Sokoto last year. The sad reality of all these is that, all the killers are often protected and shielded to escape justice by the religious power brokers high up in authority.

Now, the Muslims are suffering same in France. Same thing happened between the Tutsi and other ethnic groups in the inglorious post Idi-Amin era in Uganda leading to needless bloodshed and deaths.

Two wrongs does not make a right. One good turn deserves another. "An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere." This should be a lesson and warning to all. I rest my pen here.

Wake up from your slumber and throw those people away from your country. If not. You go see shege. Some of them ran away from Afghanistan. U see a man clinging unto the tail of an airplane, hoping to escape the terror of Islam only to fall to his death as airplane ascends some height. Such person only wants to go to a saner relatively peaceful region and demand for rights for the same Islam he was running away from. That is how terrible it is.

Islam is evil, eschew this evil from your society right now.

In the 21st century where people needed 2 more eyes at the back to see clearer, someone covers her face for reasons that she will not attract a man sexually. Ridiculous. The French are very reasonable.

it is a nonsense decision because the Muslim population of France did not immigrate there recently. They are 3rd and 4th generation north africans and Turks. So why stir up the honets nest when you think of the recent protest dominated by north africans and arabs that almost crumbled France.
if you tell me that France is a Muslim country,if France is not a Muslim country, all this are not necessary, Arab Muslim should live in peace, they should stop roaming around, with their religion, that never allowed peace rain

With France it is understable, what I don't understand is in Israel Jews do not give Christians the liberty to practice Christianity as they wish. This is a fact! Christians living in Israel have learnt to behave themselves amidst Jews.

The question is, is Jesus an Israelite?

Well, Christians do have freedom of worship and expression in Israel....Israel is a Jewish state, but not an Orthodox Jewish state. (considering that 20% of the population is Arab, immigrants do exist,...and also that Christianity is a major tourism earner).

There is resistance to proselytization though, but again, not at the level of the state. A christian won't be arrested for preaching the gospel for example.

Still, Chrisitans form 1-2% of the population...like Japan for example.

Lol otilo.....


Northerner go Protest on dere behalf....

Northerners have adopted sharia crimimal laws that support burqa and hijab in public places. They upturned Nigeria's Constitution in 1999 when they adopted sharia crimimal laws. Nigeria's Constitution does not support sharia criminal laws.

Northern Nigerians marry many wives and keep them enclosed in baa shiga - no entry to the harem.

The women don't contribute a kobo to the economic development of Nigeria.
Guess why Nigeria will ever remain poor when about one quarter of its womenfolk population cannot work due to religious practice.
Everyone depends on cheap cash from crude oil and gas deposits in the Niger delta region.

In schools, the laws were originally aimed at removing any traditional Catholic influence from public education, but have been updated over time to include other religions


If they are gonna ban religious expression in schools, then it would be uniform across all religions. Same way if they are going to allow it, then all religions should be allowed. Simple and fair

I have been to Israel twice before so I'm talking from experience. The truth is Christians are not able to express their faith without limitation from the Israeli Government. This is a fact! You can as well just do a little search on Google to know this fact. Such government as Benjamin Netanyahu are not so religious tolerant.

To answer your question, I would ask you another question. Why was religious expression barred in schools in the first place?

Just ban religion, religious activities, and religious inclinations within all schools...!

All of such should be strictly restricted to worship centers only.

I think that’s what they did.
I really think every country needs to do that.
Let people practice religion in their homes and churches

Way to go France! Way to go!

I wish UK can adopt so many laws against these ugly reta*ds that cover themselves up in black, oozing and smelling. Unfortunately these retarded women enjoy a lot in UK cos no one questions them.

The way France has banned these Muhammad piss drinking women from one thing is the same way Ilorin has banned the cowards trying to practice Isese in a land that accommodated them in disrespect to owners of the land.

Pakistani's are also sending their own messages to Christians.

France is saying, listen, we don't have anything against your religion, but I think you should keep it at home. It's a private thing, innit? You don't need to flaunt it in public, especially not in school. School is a place for learning, not for preaching/spreading religion. France is a secularized country, meaning that it separates religion and state. That's why they banned the abbaya and other religious symbols in state schools. It's not discrimination, it's integration. They want everyone to feel equal and free, regardless of their faith.

unlike one country called Nigeria

Have ever wonder why the rise in terrorism coincided with the western illegal destruction of Muslim countries and forced coupes in Muslim countries?

Remember the christian west killed more than a million people in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya etc.


Count the victim on terrorism vs victims of western interventions that should give u a true picture of who is actually the real terrorist.

The primary purpose of the Abaya is that the clothing does not hug the body thereby preventing it from exaggerating the breasts and buttocks of women.

It should be left alone. It's no big deal

Why is almost all Muslims countries are fighting

Why is it that all terrorist are Muslims eg Al-quada, Boko Haram, Islamic State( ISIS), Hezbola, Mujahadeen, Islamic cult, supporter of APC, Taliban etc

Why are Muslims killing people when they insult prophet Muhammad.

Precisely... Religion, in all its forms, has done more harm than good to this world, especially in poorly educated places like Northern Nigeria.

In French public schools Christians are not allowed to wear crosses nor Jews allowed to wear their kippa either. So there's some equality there.

Hypocrisy dey worry you


However, I hope they don't turn around and start promoting homosexuality and transgenderism when they've banned other religions from expressing themselves.

Its just time, the Muslim will take over France, UK and Germany.

Jovialjune1:
The recent attempted civil war done by arab muslims have taught them a very bitter lesson,

Next time, they will learn not to accommodate just anybody all in the name of liberalism, Muslims are everywhere in France especially refugees, give them an inch, they will take thousands of miles, what they cannot try in Arab countries, they want to do much more in woke countries, same Arab countries that couldn't lend a hand to them and accommodate them as refugees and immigrants, they always want to go to western countries.
