Read what you wrote again, so these are your claims?
Boko Haram means "Western education is forbidden", show me where in the Shariah which mentions that "Western education is forbidden" - genuine source pls

You know why I didn't respond early? I was trying to weigh if responding will actually be on any value in making you see the light. Cause obviously, you have a rigid and wrong mindset.

The real name of the group is not Boko-Haram. I've told you already.

Boko Haram was a nick name given to the by the people of Borno. The group on its flag has its name stated boldly: Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad . Meaning , "People Committed to the Propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and Jihad".

How do they achieve Jihad? Through the imposition of Shari'a law. It's quite simple. The leader of the group has said times without number that they won't reat till Shari'a law take over Nigeria.

I would have posted videos but Nairaland doesn't allow that.

Why do I have a feeling that the US has a hand in the sack of the former IGP?

This man is annoying

I also dislike seeing his face and hearing his voice

Then your APC folks will come here shouting that people hate Tinubu for no reason or because he's Yoruba.

This is you having on a man for no given reason. He's not the reason for your failure in life.

We are talking about the law here, not the actions of some violent individuals. Even before the establishment of Shari'a courts, mob killings on accusations of blasphemy have been happening, back in the 80's.

The crux of the mater is that there is no state in Nigeria that is governed by Shari'a. All states have a democratically elected government and law makers which make laws according to the constitution, not the Shari'a of Islam.

The Shari'a courts were established on customary laws to attend the personal matters such as inheritance and divorce for Muslims who choose to do so. Is the law perfect? Obviously not. But that is thier problem.

If you can't understand this, I don't know how to help you.

Razzness:
for Muslims

Razzness:
established on customary laws to attend the personal matters

See, this is where you don't get it. Shari'a is not binding on a people but rather on a territory.

The main cause for the rejection of Shari'a by non Muslims is because they've seen the deception first hand. E.g Kaduna

Shari'a is not on personal matters. It addresses matters related to communities.

You're not trying to help me here. I'm the one trying to help you cause you're talking theory while I'm talking practical. I live in Kaduna.

No be you go tell me wetin be Shari'a. There's a Shari'a court 5 minutes from where I live.

Razzness:
No Shari'a court has ever sentenced anyone to death. The constitution does not give them the power to do so. All criminal cases go straight to federal or state high courts. Go and study the constitution.

You don't get it. Is Shari'a law opposed to death for blasphemy?

For the fact that no Shari'a court has sanctioned anyone to death doesn't mean that Muslims don't already know that according to Shari'a they can kill for blasphemy.

Do you think an average northern Muslim knows the difference between criminal and civil law?

In their knowledge and by what their clerics have told them, Shari'a prescribes death for blasphemy and Shari'a is in effect in their states.

They are carrying out a law that is not in the constitution but is still a law. A law that is derived from the Quran and Hadiths. A law they know FROM the Quran and not from the Nigerian body of laws.

Razzness:
Deborah was lynched by mob. In fact it was her own class mates that leaked the voice note she posted on their class Whatsapp group. It had nothing to do with Shari'a court. No Shari'a court in Nigeria can sentence a non Muslim for blasphemy.

That's the thing Killing for blasphemy is sanctioned under Shari'a law!!

Stop trying to deceive people.

GreenCovering:
Not a big fan of Gumi for his controversial clerical and tribal excesses and links to compromised people in security matters but he is absolutely spot on on this one. The report went too far. The shariah law does not persecute christians or support their persecution. So why call for it's abolition? It has existed peacefully for a thousand years in Nigeria before incidents of terrorism which are extremes to the shariah laws, one of the reasons for their being called terrorists anyway. So that line in the report is showing favoritism for christians over Muslims, the same problems that you claim you want to solve. The U.S. had better not create a bigger problem for Nigeria than we already have. Since they predicted Nigeria's disintegration during Obj's tenure and it didn't happen, we stood united and we are rebounding today economically even against the USD, now makes you wonder if they practically want to use their own hands to disintegrate it since their prediction failed?

I trust my president, PBAT. He is already taking the right steps to winning the battle against insecurity where everyone shall feel safe where they are domiciled. We shall overcome before the very eyes of the U.S. but not through this their divisive rhetorics. We shall work with their good advice and discard their ulterior motives. We are a smart people.

Shari'a does not persecute christians? How old are you? Really.

Cause if you know about the Shari'a crises of 2000 in Kaduna you wouldn't have said that.

Olaadegbu, you've been quiet about the incident in Mar-a-Lago, where a Trump supporter was killed over the weekend for allegedly trying to assassinate Trump.

Why have you been quiet?

Not a Democrat?
Not a black guy or Muslim, or Trans?

Mr. Man stop derailing the thread. If you want to talk about the Mar-a-lago incident, open a thread and do so.

Sensational news for public rage lol

One person’s narrative without any due diligence from reporters is the kind of news we are having these days.

Do you have any other report that states the contrary of what this report has said? Can you post the link?

ufotunang:
..if people do not pay ransom the terrorists will kill their loved ones... and the police, military are not willing to go and rescue the victims or kidnapped victims from the terrorists.. so that is why people pay ransom

Please, I beg you in God's name, don't say that bolded line in front of a military person.

Burob:
Padi Padi government, Tinubu’s former adc is now the IG of police today, the other one is the Oniru of Iru kingdom.

Let anyone tell us where Gringory Obi’s adc is, bet u na suffer head them dey inside today, Agulu selfish self centered man, no go do anything for them.

Your mindset is like that of a wild aneemal.

If Peter obi wants to do something for his ADC, he'll give him money or any other thing in a perwinal capacity. Not putting him in a position of government just because he knows him. Competence is Peter Ok first requirement to occupy q government position. The government is not his personal company and he understands that unlike the baron.

Explain how The Sharia law has to do with Boko Haram, state clear evidences pls. I will respond to you simultaneously.

Boko Haram's official name is Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad . Meaning , "People Committed to the Propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and Jihad". Isn't that Shari'a?



Under Mohammed Yusuf, the group's founder, Mohammed Yusuf, preached that Western influences—including secular education, science, and democratic concepts like voting—were corrupting Islamic values.


Under Abubakar Shekau, the main goal became violently overthrowing the Nigerian government to create a pure Islamic state, or caliphate, governed by Sharia law

The road to Badagry is a Federal road.

So, Tinubu is the inefficient one? Cause a road of such strategic importance (a cross border road) should be treated with utmost importance right?

Both the president and the governor are inefficient

See how you are dancing around in circles.

If you're only seeing circles then its your bràíñ that's malfunctioning — not my fault.

Seeking to defend the government in electricity will definitely result in bràïñ malfunction.

Angry? Boy, that's just your imagination. The president has done nothing to improve power supply. We're still at ~5000MW

Northern states are suffering. The Mando-Shioro transmission line that terrorists destroyed in 2024 has not been fixed till date.

Terrorists chased out the army and engineers from the forest when they went to repair it.

The national grid has collapsed 2 times this year and 12 times last year.

I'm talking facts not AI.

Flangelo12:
As of February 2026, the administration of President Bola Tinubu is actively working on expanding electricity infrastructure to rural and underserved communities through initiatives like the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) and partnerships with new power distribution companies.

Here are the key developments regarding community electricity under the Tinubu administration:

Etche Communities, Rivers State: In February 2026, Aba Power (a subsidiary of Geometric Power) extended electricity supply to several communities in the Etche Local Government Area of Rivers State, which reports indicate had been without electricity for over a decade.


Abuja Solar Project: The Federal Government recently inaugurated a one-megawatt solar mini-grid to supply electricity to the Rubochi and IQuA communities in Abuja, benefiting approximately 4,000 households, businesses, and schools.
Rural Electrification Focus: The government is focusing on solar mini-grids and solar home systems to improve access for communities not connected to the national grid, as part of the broader national energy strategy.

General Strategy: President Tinubu has signed the Electricity Act Amendment Bill (2024), which allows states, companies, and individuals to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity, aiming to decentralize the power sector and enhance supply to local areas.

Student Demands ₦15 Million After Viral False Rape Allegation Sparks National Debate



https://www.facebook.com/share/1EAWA2U89x/

False rape accusers should not be allowed to go scot free. Many lives have been ruined. Greenwood, Toure (I'm not sure but that man city player) God saved Neymar too.

There must be punishment. You can't just wake up obe morning and accuse someone of rape just because you want to trend online.

But making it a criminal offense is too much. At most, civil.

PS: We need more of this kind of topics on Nairaland. This is what attracted many of us to the forum that time.

fxexperts:
Then you do not know what is actuallyy fueling this kidnapping we are currently experiencing in the country. Even the military is benefiting massively from it. So who do you want to use to end it. Same military that is compromise. Ending this involve a very strong tactics.

And which strategy is this current government using to tackle it?

True true you're the chief of Olodo!!

Sanwo Olu is just chopping life. Foing 1% of what he should be doing and then leave the rest for data boys.

Cause what do you mean, Badagry- Iya-naba road is still under construction after 6 years?

i don't remember mentioning any tribe, mr guilty conscience. Words like nsogbu nsogbu, wahala, ba, kai, egbon, gragra, oya, ehen, japa, etc are freely used without any tribal connotations in this space.

It's good you denied what you were implying. That guy wounded you with that comment. Tribalism is synonymous to F----- oo ----- lish---- ness

Only purported hypocrites cry more than the bereaved.

In what context are you using the terms, "cry more than the bereaved"?

Are you the bereaved?

See, we've seen your type on here, sarrki, manna, others. They came, they faded away. You also will fade away just like the did. In the meantime, you haven't met your quota for today.

Keep posting!

fxexperts:
And their was no killing during GEJ tenure and also none during Buhari tenure. You are all acting as if your principal Obi wins today, he is going to carry a gun to end the terrorism in the north. I used to be an Obi supporter, but the fact that your principal has never condemned the IPOB killing going on in the southeast is enough reason for me to see through his hypocrisy and to know he will perform poorly in terms of security if he becomes president one day.

Obi will perform woefully in terms of security? Do you know of the brothers of doom involved in kidnapping during Obi's tenure and how he ended it? Broooo! What's wrong with you?

If you say obi will perform woefully the you don't even know the security situation now. Anything above this level of insecurity, we might have a full blown war.

Kwara is down. Kaduna here is so bad, they'll come to your home to kidnap you. You don't even need to step out.

Willy2025:
Shame will never allow PO and his supporters to admit that they were wrong about this road in the beginning. That's why they are secretly plying the road quietly

That road that gets flooded when it rains? The road that we are heavily borrowing for and it's not even 10% complete?

That road is a complete waste of resources. Its not like there's no road from lagos to Calabar normally.

[quote author=Burob post=138560856][/quote]Data boy no be work sha. I just hope you're eating well. If you want to last on Nairaland, you'll need to do better o.

This your work hard.

Mention the stats u are imagining, instead of changing the narrative.

And furthermore, was Valentine Ozigbo & your professor Stella commissioners under Gringory Obi as Governor of Anambra state, or SAAs, how relevant are they today politically? has any of them won an election into any elected position since Gringory left power?

Mr. Man if you want to see the stats he gave, go back to your mentions and check. I don't have that time. If you want to claim to be blind, that's your own problem.

Secondly, Valentine Ozigbo and Prof Stella are at liberty to choose whether or not they want to be involved in politics Peter Obi doesn't use godfatherism to impose a candidate on people after leaving office. Don't you get?

Its a choice for both of them to either be involved in politics or not. But incase you don't know sha, they are doing well in their respective lives.

Don't ignore what I asked you. Tell me Tinubu's achievements in Lagos. That's apart from flooding the state with Agberos that have made the state a crime scene.

What stats, u have started with this una state of delusion again?

They say a good general is know by his lieutenants, mention 2 people that served under Grinch Gringory Obi as Governor of Anambra state that are still with him today, or have achieved anything politically after serving under him.

Mr. Man, you're a data boy, we know but that doesn't mean you should suspend your mental faculties na.

That guy gave you stats.

Now, this general and lieutenant thing in politics is godfatherism and that's Tinubu speciality and that's why he supported Wike against Fubura.

So you know Valentine Ozigbo? Prof Stella? They are all Peter Obi close allies and rhey are doing well today but he didn't impose them as Governor!!!!

That's Tinubu trademark. Listen, I am a full blooded Yoruba man. Born and brought up in Lagos.

Tell me Tinubu's achievements in Lagos.

LegendHero:
That’s a lie. Anambra people plunged into more poverty during Obi period.

Even Soludo confirmed it. I find it as intellectual dishonesty that you’re even denying the fact that Obi performed abysmally low.

I've always seen this stat you posted as something only d'mb people can post. Cause 2008/2009 is 5 years before obi finished and at 2002/2003 he wasn't even governor yet.

1. There's no evidence that the previous governor before obi didn't take up poverty before 2006 when he became governor that's 3 good years. And we've seen what cam happen in one year with poverty rate (Tinubu is a good example)

2. 2008/2009 is still 5 years before he finished his tenure. Theres no evidence that rate didn't drop before he left.

3. On Tinubu's part, 2002/2003 Tinubu was governor when the poverty rate in a whole Lagos skyrocked. And at 2009, it was Fashola that was governor. Definitely it is Fashola we should be giving credit for that kow poverty rate.

Burob:
After all his purported achievements immediately he handed over power after his tenure had elapsed, he ran away from the Apga?

You talked about governance and he gave you stats and the you moved to politics? What has moving to APGA have to do with the development of the state or his achievements?

Come this boy, what's wrong with you?
