My point is that we should accommodate the Muslims. What if Muslims decided that they also want Friday to be work - free?

Bnladan:
I did attend classes on Sundays. Many schools run d sun-thur structure. My own here is dat y re u ppl angry bout dis decision?

Throwback:
So you see, you did not even get the full tale.

The problem is the hours not the day, and WAEC has now adjusted the conflicting papers to hold after prayer time and not during prayer time on Friday that originally elicited the Muslim protest.

Throwback:
A reason I have given from my previous comment on Christians Europeans and the calendar they bequeathed us.

And yes, I have attended classes on Sundays in the MiddleEast, while having Friday as my weekend.

And yes I work on Sundays as my type of work has no regard for time, weekend, public holiday, or religious holiday.

Petrodollars rightly has no regard for religion when economics is all that matters.

So maybe it is time that we Christians in a secular Nigeria also reduce our full Sunday holiday to just 2hrs on Sunday and return to work immediately, or accept that Friday should also be a full workfree holyday. Seeing that we are not grateful for the undue advantage we already enjoy, rather we even want to disregard the Friday prayer hour already recognised by the federal government.

Throwback:
I belong to the same special interest you belong to, that will never give up 1hr of the full day holyday of Sunday, but expects a fellow recognised religion to sacrifice the very 1hour that is already acknowledged by the government as their prayer hour on Friday.

So WAEC that avoided exams on Sunday, should have also avoided exams on this holy hour in Friday.

fortunes0215:
But sunday, which is a day christians attend church is a work free day. Don't you think muslims deserves friday as work free day too?

Throwback:
He asked you a simple straightforward question if Nigeria is a Christian country?

gbegemaster:
Maybe they should just add Friday as a no work day.

RisMas:
Is Nigeria a christian country?

samsard:
The adjustment is necessary, imagine if WAEC fixed an exam for Sunday morning.
