Everyone knows that Afenifere is a wing of CAN expressing views to shun away from the truth is just a usual dodging tactics!

I told children of 8 that the game will change and majority will follow when the campaign for General Election begins!

Yes

It's even foolish to be asking this especially Kwara which is almost extension of Yoruba state

Atiku 2023, say no to pastor husband muslim

What do you mean by extension of Yoruba state?
Do you want to tell me Yorubas are Christians?
Whatever the case may be, Muslim will definitely become Nigeria's President, so vote wisely

Super Eagles star, Ahmed Musa, has tackled Nigerian politicians over the lingering strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

Students of many government-owned universities have been away from the classrooms since February when ASUU commenced strike.

All efforts to make the lecturers return to the classroom have not yielded meaningful result.

On Monday, President Muhammadu Buhari asked ASUU to stop keeping children at home.

Posting on his official Instagram account on Tuesday, Musa said it was a shame that political office holders flaunt the pictures of their children who school abroad while those in Nigeria.

He wrote, “To our political office holders whose children school abroad. How do you feel visiting your children abroad, taking pictures in their schools and posting online while ASUU is on strike?

“Like seriously, how is it ok to you? You’re running a system that you don’t even believe in. Show me one Oyibo leader whose child is schooling in Nigeria.

“E no day touch una? And when you return Nigerian youths will still gather and sing praises for una.[sic]”

Musa’s post comes after pictures of the graduation of Governor Nyesom Wike’s son from a UK university flooded the internet.

Aside from Wike, two other governors attended the graduation. They Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State and Seyi Makinde, his Oyo counterpart.

Indeginous Muslims don't make up to 3% in almost all SS/SE states

Take the national christian indices with this numbers you see that Christian's are a major group that can't be sidelined

Every state you see christian as gov/deputy in that list is because they have a significant population of not less than 30% to negotiate block vote.

Power wasn't given them on platter

Do you mean Christians are up to 30% in Kwara and Gombe?

Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah, Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese has said the decision by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to present Muslim-Muslim ticket for the 2023 presidential election was a teamwork based on calculation of what would work for the party.


In a statement he personally signed on Monday, Kuka said the decision by the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu to pick Senator Kashim Shettima as his running mate should not be a thing to worry about.

Recall that Asiwaju on Sunday, announced the former Borno State Governor as his running mate for the 2023 presidential election.

The development has continued to generate reactions from concerned Nigerians who argued that a Christian Northerner should have been picked in place of Shettima.


But Kuka, while reacting to the controversy, said those angered by the development should support other candidates they feel are better.

The statement reads, “This is what you call team selection and everybody will choose depending on what they think will give them a fair chance. So people will take responsibility for the choices they have made. For me, it is not something to lose sleep over.

“If people feel unhappy with the kind of choices that have been made, that is why we are democrats, you can’t force it. We outsiders cannot force a choice of any candidate.


“It is now left for you to look at the choices that have been made. And there is no guarantee that all Christians will vote for Christians and all Muslims will vote for Muslims.”

Is okay. Borno is never a PDP stronghold. Tinubu will lose d south,his own domain to PDP,while atiku will drag the north with him. The swings states which have many Christians like taraba,adamawa,plateau,Benue and bauchi are going to PDP.

Tinubu no do d calculation well. A northern Christian could have make him win d south and evn win the swing states and some northern key states like katsina. Many Pentecostal Christians who re pro tinubu will surely hv a rethink on this muslim muslim ticket.

Tinubu will win SW with landslide victory and I strongly believe that he will get majority of votes from NW, NE, and NC but will lose only SE and SS. Take this to the bank, I swear the Election results will go as outlined here

KEVIND:
2011 general elections results. Jonathan didn't need to win Kano, kaduna, katsina, Borno, zamfara, sokoto, yobe to become Nigeria's president. Peter Obi can reciprocate this.
https://www.nairaland.com/7221949/2011-jonathan-didnt-need-win

That was when election results are prepared and announced when voters were on queue voting. Real election that reflects sense of reality with number of voters are accredited for election with little or no manipulation and to some extent vote buying started in 2015. All elections before 2015 were jokes!

SEYIKP:
Christianity didn't come to Nigeria on a platter of gold. Missionaries were tortured, burnt alive, beheaded and imprisoned for Christianity to gain its footings in Nigeria.
Nigeria is a rainbow nation with diverse religions and tribes. Muslim Muslim is an insensitive ticket to Nigeria Christians.
A competent Christian cannot be found amongst over 50million northern Christians to be the VP as useless the post is. If this should work, next will be Northern Northern ticket.
It is official, I am de-batified. I'll be Obidient to the development of Nigeria by God's grace.

Nobody said there is no competent Christian in the North but here we are talking about a situation whereby a Muslim Southerner won Presidential ticket of APC and is looking for a running mate that can give him the requisite votes in the North. Politics isn't played to satisfy the desire of some people but rather to win Election. Please take a neutral position and tell me a single Christian in the North that can give Tinubu the votes that Shettima can give.
What I know is, some people are just pretending and I'm sure even if Tinubu will bring CAN Chairman as his running mate they'll still vote for their party on election day!

VoteTinubu2023:
Bloc votes incoming.

Election results in Borno : APC : 1.5 million. PDP : 200,000.



Vote Tinubu 2023. Vote APC.

No way PDP can get 200k votes in Borno!

adioolayi:
Put the way this Kwankwaso addressed issues around Tinubu's Presidency and compare it with the way he addressed Peter Obi and Atiku's Presidency...

That gives you a signal that, if you are still thinking Northerners will not vote Tinubu or APC because Buhari is not on the ballot...Your understanding of Nigeria's politics is little.

This man Kwankwaso, like every other formidable Nigeria's politicians, if they can't get power, they prepare themselves strategically to be relevant in the Government of the person they feel can win.

2023 elections will be very interesting

Will be interesting because just like how some naysayers predicted that Northerners will dump Tinubu during Primary Election will also be taken by surprise when campaign begins. Definitely, North will surprise some people with bigger voting bloc that will go to Tinubu. Keep this to the bank!

Arysexy:
Buhari Muslim = 8 yrs

Tinubu Muslim Muslim= 8yrs?

2031 Northern Muslim= 8 yrs?


God forbid

Christians are not daft

Either Northern Muslim 16yrs or Muslim 16yrs

I'm strong supporter of Tinubu Presidential aspirations. I started this after Buhari won second term.
Some people need to ponder well and understand that 2023 is a two horse race contest. Muslim Northerners are open to both Tinubu and Atiku. Should Atiku win the illusionary suspense of Islamization and Fulanization agenda will terrorise the peace of some people for more years. However, if Tinubu wins it is a big boost for Nigerian Muslims and an advantage to Southern Nigerians agitation for power shift.
In reality, religious identity of a leader has never helped a common man in Nigeria but few group of religious scammers.
How in earth has Islam benefitted from Buhari Govt? More Muslims are being massacred, butchered and retired to IDP camps under him and he is watching helplessly doing nothing about it. Nobody can show a single benefit that Muslims gain from Buhari regime.

DMerciful:
When campaign starts ,we're going to loud it with evidence. Shettima is a Bokoharam supporter with evidences

Did your useless agenda and baseless noise stopped Buhari from becoming President in 2015 and 2019?
You aspersed all sort of fabricated allegations of Boko Haram and Banditry on Buhari but u woefully failed. Peter Obi, Kwankwaso and Atiku will make it easier for Tinubu to withstand your religious bigotry and win election that will put u in a regrettable shame!

Mune:
Atiku is going to beat Tinubu blue black in the North. I'm a core northerner, too.

You may be a core Northerner but know nothing abt practical politics. When the campaign begins you'll come back and tell me the direction our people will take.

Allahisarapist:
Guy APC IS DEAD.
Mark this.
You dared the Christians like they are nothing in the scheme of things

Nobody dare Christians. Candidates are field by political parties in elections not just because of their integrity, competence or CV but because of mainly their capacity to deliver votes. If you think making the election religious will make Peter Obi to win this election then you are very wrong because he will lose and may consequently pave way for similar tickets in the future. So, let it be as it is and vote base on your understanding of candidates but not religion. There are many factors that won't favour Obi in religious politicking!

Lite2018:
You probably don't get yet...
Nigeria is extremely religious. Especially when a case of "islamization" of the country is concerned. BAT should have looked at the north central knowing fully well that kwakwanso and Atiku would divide his vote in the far north... I don't think peter obi has a chance except he works extremely hard instead of just replying political irrelevant people however if atiku can weather the PDP storm. The north would always prefer their own to any other person.. Ask wike

I'm from th so called core North and I strongly believe that if campaign begins you will see how convinced the region will be with Tinubu candidacy. PDP is never a choice and Atiku has kind of character and a bad name that will never make him famous the way u think in the North. 4 out of 6 NC states are Muslims majority and I'm sure if the voting pattern will go religious Tinubu will win the zone especially for being entirely a different character with previous candidates they used to vote. Remember unlike Atiku Tinubu already has bloc votes in SW but even in the NE Atiku will definitely lose Borno, Yobe woefully and still share Bauchi and lose Gombe with slight margin while winning Adamawa alone in his zone.
NNPP is only popular in No and Kwankwaso can only win Kano, don't be deceived!

cybersoldiers:
Tinubu is fake Muslim.

You don't sit with a chair in the mosque as a genuine Muslim.

Ignorance is a disease. At old age body has to be managed well to avoid much fatigue. Like many other Muslims including Buhari there is no basis or religious injunction that can back your ignorant assertion.

Allahisarapist:
All Christians in Nigeria lets stand up now and stop what is about to befall Christians if we allow Apc to win.
I think we all have heard the news about what is happening in southern Kaduna
What impetus, that a ruling power has to relegate the Christians from the scheme of things.
Ask yourself is Nigeria a Muslim country?
As a true yoruba Christian I and my family are obediently yusuful.

Nobody will force you to vote for APC under multiparty democracy but you also need to take responsibility of the future consequences of advocating for a Christian candidature. I'm very much upbeat that no matter how hard you'll campaign for Obi he won't even come 2nd in the forth coming election. APC will definitely win next election!
Power, competence and money will pave way for APC in irrespective of the winning margin!

SU50:
Arewa, there is no basis for comparing kwankwaso and obi, kwankwaso is miles ahead, in terms of achievements, political capital, supporters and reach.

Allah I want this election to come, these PO people will learn for the umpteen time that online and offline are two different things.

People like this rabble rouser are inconsequential and carry no weight, doesn't know where she belongs. Its best to ignore her.

Truly they don't know how election is won at all that is why it'll take them years crying marginalisation!

Foolish analysis

If you don't agree with what he said I hope you'll not come back beyond 2023 and accuse North of retaining power beyond the gentleman agreement of power rotation?

Like many other Nigerians Aisha is also dumb and know nothing about good quality leadership especially the way she failed to define competence by mixing competence with other factors. In addition she is ignorant of politics and political party issues which is very difficult to settle. As far as equity is concerned in PDP power is supposed to come back to the North particularly NE and as far as fairness is concerned wether straight or no straight North still has some few years to remain in power to balance the deficit Yar'adua's death brought in power rotation. However, I have the strong believe that death is inevitable and APC should continue beyond 2023 so that equity, fairness and balance can fairly be continued since Nigerians don't anymore care about competence.
How can a person advocate competence and end up preaching fairness, equity and citing US as an example of experience despite being asked about Nigeria.
Going by facts and record, Kwankwaso is hundreds timess more experienced and competent than Obi!

Aliko Dangote Has Made More Money Than Elon Musk, 31 Powerful United States Billionaires in the last 6 months

Since the beginning of 2022, the world's wealthiest have seen their wealth plummet massively, led by US billionaires Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and other powerful billionaires have all reported a drop in fortune, with Mark Zukerberg worst hit Aliko Dangote, on the other hand, continues to amass riches and has made more in 2022 than 31 US billionaires.
An interesting fact has emerged that Aliko Dangote, since the start of 2022 he has made more money than 31 US billionaires who are among the 100 richest people in the world. According to Bloomberg Data, Africa's richest man's wealth has climbed by a whopping $1.31 billion(N544.06bn) between January 1 and Wednesday, July 6, 2022.

Dangote's expanding wealth has moved him to 64 on the rich list, and he is just one of the 27 world's top 100 billionaires without losses in 2022.
Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and other billionaires have seen their wealth plummet from what it was at the start of January to what it is in July. Musk, for example, started the year at $270 billion but has dropped to $215 billion as at Wednesday, 6 July 2022. On the hand, Dangote's wealth jumped from $19.1 billion in January to $20.4 billion in July. The fall of billionaires' wealth has been linked to Ukraine, the Russian war, and the challenges of IT corporations. Breakdown of Losses Despite remaining far wealthier than Dangote, as earlier noted, Elon Musk's worth has dropped by $55.8 billion from January to July 6. Similarly, Jeff Bezos' fortune has plummeted by $55.8 billion year-to-date; Bernard Arnault, the world's third-richest man wealth dropped by $54.9 billion. Bill Gates, Larry Page, and Sergey Brin all suffered losses of $23.0 billion, $25.5 billion, and $24.9 billion, respectively.

Adani amassed a staggering $22.0 billion between January 1 and July 6, 2022, making him the world's seventh-richest man. Other US billionaires with huge losses since January Warren Buffett- $12.9bn Steve Ballmer- $12.7bn Larry Ellison- -$18.7bn Mark Zuckerberg -$63.0bn Jim Walton- $5.96bn Rob Walton- $5.97bn Alice Walton -$6.19bn Jacqueline Badger Mars -$1.99bn John Mars -$1.99bn Michael Dell- $6.60bn Len Blavatnik- $8.51bn List of top internet providers in Nigeria by subscribers as Elon Musk's Starlinks gets FG's approval In other news, Legit.ng had earlier ranked in the top 10 internet service providers using their number of subscribers.

Poor journalism. El Rufai has never been in CPC. El Rufai was PDP member before joining APC.

As the uncertainty in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) continues, three governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are currently in a meeting with Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.

Wike on Friday received the Governors of Lagos, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Ekiti State who also doubles Chairman Nigeria Governors Forum, Kayode Fayemi and his Ondo State counterpart, Rotimi Akeredolu in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

Wike was also joined by the former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose to welcome the governors.

DAILY POST gathered that they have entered into a close-door private meeting.

Sources close to the Rivers State governor hinted that this may not be unconnected with the 2023 presidential election.

Recall that Wike is aggrieved that the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar picked the Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate.

Governor Nasir El Rufai of Kaduna state ask Muslims Faithful to pay #500,000.00 for using Murtala Muhammad Square for Eid Adha prayers.
just imagine if they ask Christians to do same …all social media would have be trending now.

Many bigots in Nigeria don't at all know who is El Rufai. He doesn't care about religion nor give a Bleep about your opinion on his stands on religious issues. He destroyed many mosques when he was FCT Minister, some clerics used to curse him and he proudly tell them that your religious curse can't harm me!

El Rufai was labelled with all religious attacks because they saw him as a possible threat to their political career but the guy is so bold to take any risk even if it will cost him anything.

Unlike them, nobody can show a religious congregation, mosque or programme that El Rufai attends nor have ever contributed anything toward Islamic cause. However, their politicians are busy attending religious congregations and being cheered for just being religious but still all they see in others is an illusionary religious inclination!

. Go and check very well, the admission into unity schools is an examination based, and cut off mark are issued out after the examination, the cut mark for kano is 12 for males while females is 6 ,likewise other northern states that of south east states are nothing less than 200 depending on the year's examination go and verify, no northern state cut off mark is up to 30 marks, they called themselves education backwards States, they used quota system to hype them, that is why graduates from the north are half baked , now that court have quashed that quota system marks let see how it goes, the fear now is students from southern states will take over the schools in the North under the dangerous conditions of the Fulani terrorist, let the few northern students who passed stay there and no southern students should go north, let them close others , no southern students will be used to appease those dogs like they used those chibok girls to settle their men

I'm a Northerner, a lecturer in one of the Southern Universities. I'm deeply ashamed of your ignorance. I never expected nor ever dreamt to see the kind of students I see yearly in that University. The students extremely rely on exam malpractice to pass exams and the lecturers make it look like malpractice is the only way to graduate disaster into our society. The violation of education standard can't be found anywhere in the world. The lecturers receive bribes (sex in case of female students) while the students get free marks and exam questions in advance!

There is a reason its called uniform. And wearing hijab defeats the uniformity.

When last was a muslim stoned to death by christians for blasphemy?

There is no way a group of people will dictate or determine how uniform should look like without taking into cognisance he verdict of others. Do u want to tell me the skimpy clothes your sisters wear to schools is also a defined uniform your colonial masters imposed on us?
Who defined the uniform and how it should look like?

Tolerance and respect toward others' religious belief is the way out. Why can't you refrain yourselves from the blasphemy?

May be they chose jungle justice because there is no law that protects their religious right.

Petty traders faced similar judgement in your communities!

The Kuje prison in Abuja was attacked on Tuesday by the terrorists who bombed the Abuja-Kaduna train on March 28 in order to set their members free, credible sources told the Daily Trust Wednesday.

One of the sources said the terrorists attacked the facility and freed their high profile members because their plan to use the abducted passengers of the Abuja-Kaduna train in exchange for their members was not yielding any result as the federal government was adamant.

He said the Kuje Medium Security Custodial Centre was brought down using explosive devices that gave them easy access.

The source said in addition to the request for the release of their young children by the federal government in exchange for the Kaduna bound train captives, the terrorists, loyal to Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), also demanded the release of some terrorists held in Kuje and some facilities.

“They discovered that their demands would not be met and therefore, they set out for full scale war,” he said.

He said they were also planning to attack the Special Tactical Squad (STS), formerly the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) headquarters in Abuja which they attacked in 2012.

‘Intelligence ignored’

Another source said vital intelligence provided by relevant agencies was ignored by those that matter, a development that gave the terrorists unfettered access to the Kuje facility around 10.30pm.

Apart from warders at the Kuje prison, there was a task force comprising the military, police, SSS and civil defence guarding the place because high profile criminals were kept there, he said.

“Sadly there are moles everywhere and therefore, even though the security operatives were alerted, the terrorists had their way,” he said.

“And that is why they perpetrated the nefarious act with precision. Some of them distracted attention of the security operatives by detonating many explosives outside the facility after destroying the main entrance, which gave a different group task with the responsibility of bringing out their members unfettered access.

“Those that gained access went straight to the cells where the Boko Haram members were incarcerated and set them free…There was no serious resistance,” he said.

The invaders reportedly used dynamites and destroyed the heavily fortified facility, including the Central Terrorism Unit (CTU), freeing all the terrorists there.

“Those freed would definitely unsettle Nigeria’s security architecture; they would disrupt peace unless something is done.

“And as you can see, the VIP section was not compromised because those incarcerated there were not their targets,” he said.

Another source said, “The attack at night was deliberate because they know we don’t have the capacity to resist invasion at night.

“They shepherded their members overnight and disappeared,” he said.

2 POLICE OPERATIVES NABBED

Daily Trust gathered that two police officers have been arrested after their communication with some of the escapees was intercepted.

“Two of the terrorists that escaped called a police investigation officer (IPO) in one of our stations and spoke to him in a compromising manner…They are now being investigated to know their level of complicity,” he said.

Other attacks loom

It was learnt that the terrorists were planning a deliberate and massive attack on the military detention facility in Kainji as well as the prisons in Bida and Minna.

“What they want to achieve is to set free members of the terrorist organisation who are detained in those facilities.

“They are planning to do this on Sallah day and unless something is done, it will come to pass,” he said.

I shared intelligence with govt – Negotiator

Mallam Tukur Mamu, a Kaduna-based newspaper publisher who has played an intermediary role with the train attackers said they hinted about the Tuesday night jailbreak.

He made the claim Wednesday in a statement issued to journalists in Kaduna.

Mamu said he had shared intelligence reports with authorities concerned but they allegedly failed to act on the information.

The publisher frowned at the failure of the government to respond to the group’s threat.

“I can confirm without doubt that the Kuje Correctional Centre attack was executed and coordinated by the same group that attacked the Abuja-Kaduna bound train because they gave indications of imminent attacks to that effect which I shared.

“For the records, they requested for the release of 51 of their members. But through the power of dialogue and engagement, I was able to single-handedly scaled that number to only 10 and communicated with audio backing the development to the relevant authorities.

“There was an unnecessary delay on giving them even a precise feedback by the government and now they have not only succeeded in carrying out another successful attack that indicts the nature of our intelligence and capacity to respond promptly but have also succeeded in releasing dozens of their members, which would have been averted if actions has been taken to give them only 10 and secure the release of the train victims,” Mamu said.

“In all this risky, painful and frustrating engagement, which government is yet to acknowledge and appreciate, I have more than 100 documented audios that I shared with the relevant authorities. For the purpose of this important press release and to authenticate my claims, I will also share four of the latest audios,” he said.

ISWAP claims attack, releases video

ISWAP Wednesday night claimed responsibility for the jailbreak.

The group had previously claimed responsibility for attacks on police and other facilities in nearby areas of Suleja and Kogi State.

In a statement posted on the Islamic State media channel, Amaq, the group stated: “Islamic State fighters invaded a government prison in Kuje, a suburb of Abuja, the Nigerian capital, where they destroyed the perimeter fence and successfully freed tens of prisoners, yesterday”.

The IS media platform later released a 33-second video with the sound of explosives and heavy gunshots. The attackers were jubilating and chanting Allahu Akbar.

Part of the video showed raging fire-consuming vehicles and parts of the building.

However, the Nigeria Correctional Service (NCoS) said that only four inmates were killed, 16 injured, while 443 escaped from the facility.

The corrections also dispelled the media report (not by Daily Trust) that DCP Abba Kyari and other prominent inmates have escaped, saying they are presently in custody, hale and hearty.

A statement by the Public Relations Officer of the correction, Umar Abubakar, said a total of 879 inmates escaped from the facility during the attack.

“As at the time of this report, 443 have been recaptured, 551 inmates are currently in custody, while efforts are ongoing to recapture all fleeing inmates.

“As at the time of the attack, we have 38 military personnel on ground in addition to the personnel of the Nigerian Police, Civil Defence, DSS, NSCDC and our Armed Squad. This is the minister’s efforts to rejig the security architecture of our facilities. The public is also informed that some of the attackers were killed while some escaped with gunshot wounds. We, therefore, appeal to hospitals and other medical institutions and practitioners to report anyone that comes to them for treatment for gunshot injuries to the nearest law enforcement agency,” the agency stated.

On his part, the Minister of Defence, Bashir Magashi, has said that all suspected Boko Haram members detained in the facility have escaped.

Speaking during an assessment tour, he said the facility was attacked around 10:30pm on Tuesday.

“The prison is accommodating about 994 inmates and over 600 escaped. Many people have been recaptured and brought back to the prison. Maybe by the close of the day, more will have been captured and returned.

“I think everything is under control. The people who came to do this activity, from the records, we believe they belong to a particular group. Most likely, they are Boko Haram members because we have a sizeable number of Boko Haram suspects in detention, and presently we cannot locate any of them.

“I think they are about 64 in the prison and none of them now is available they have all escaped, “he said.

Also, during his visit, the FCT Minister, Malam Muhammad Musa Bello, directed traditional rulers in Kuje to work with relevant security operatives to apprehend all the escapees from the Kuje minimum correctional facility.

Malam Bello, who was at the facility Wednesday for an on-the-spot assessment, called on the Gomo of Kuje, Haruna Tanko Jibrin, to summon all traditional chiefs in Kuje Area Council to work with security agencies to fish out the escaped inmates from the communities.

While calling on members of the communities to provide appropriate intelligence to the security agencies to enable them to do their work, the minister expressed confidence that, with maximum cooperation from them, all those who escaped would be traced, found and brought back since no one could go into any community and blend without being spotted by members of such community.

Was any muslim stoned to death under them?

Did they negotiate the release of only christians from terrorists and leave the muslims?

Was christian dressing introduced as school uniforms?

Honestly, you seem to be very selfish and turn a blind eye to see the truth. A clear example was given to u that as far back as 1999 all Presidential candidates of 2 major political parties were Christians.
Muslim Northerners as far back as the first tenure of OBJ were butchered, massacred and subjected to all forms of carnage by OPC, many frequent attacks in Nsukka and Onitsha, in Yelwa-Bauchi state, Jos-plateu and Southern Kaduna. You were either kid then or didn't have access to media. Nigeria had never seen ethno-religious crisis like in the first tenure of OBJ.
Concerning, the current killings, is it not grave injustice to compare the thounsad of Muslims killed and displaced by bandits in Kaduna, Niger, Kebbi, Zamfara, Katsina and Nasarawa state with the fraction of the Christians killed?
You make it look religious by putting so much uproar because the killers are Muslims but the damage done on Muslims is uncomparable to that on Christians.

It is very annoying seeing a Christian complaining about the fundamental human right of Muslims and their religious injunction to wear Hijab. No Christian is ever being forced to wear Hijab but the noise clearly has a sinister motive. Do u know how important Hijab is to Muslims? I don't know what u want to achieve with his nonsense. The uniform is brought to us by Western Christians invaders but we never complain, just ordinary hijab we ask to use as part of our religious injunction you are here making all sort of noise. I don't know what Nigerian Christians would say if it were Arabs that colonised and handover the animalistic system we are practicing in the name of systems of Govt?
Go and walk naked as u inherited from your masters nobody will stop you but our cultural value will be preserved well!
