Sharia law in the north and blasphemy laws are religious prosecution to those staying in the north that are not muslims

Harnny:
o... I am the one cherrypicking now? I never quoted any Bible verse... you are the one quoting the Quran. I mentioned that there are a lot more destructive verses in the Bible and tou argued it is for the Jews. I did not argue that with you did I?. It is not okay for the US to drop atomic bomb on Hiroshima and claim they did it because the Bible commanded destruction is it?. You also claimed the Bible preached love your neighbor. So you cannot you cannot find any such directives in the Quran?. If you are going to argue then at least do it truthfully.

The US never said the bible commanded them to drop Hiroshima lol, they dropped it so the war can end, the Japanese didn't want to surrender and started using kamikaze tactics, this forced the hand of the US, so they can prevail.

He is showing the real face of the religion, the extremists are intolerant of other views, they believe in killing over anything. Demons.

He should be removed from the service of Nigerian military, fanatics and extremists will compromise and sabotage military efforts.

[Go to school and get yourself educated olodo.]To be honest Muslims communities are the most unfair and they only talk about been fair when it favours their selfishness

Starting from freedom of religion, historically Yoruba kingship is associated with traditionalist while Northern kingship is forcefully associated with islam

This same Muslims will never ever allow a Christian become Emir of Ilorin talk less of Kano or even a non Muslim become emir of Sokoto, they will rather go to war and kill that that to happen even if the rightful heir is a non Muslim

When Muslims are in the minority they shout about right, justice and equality ...trust them at your peril. immediately they because majority they forget about what justice looks like but their own greed and expansionist agendas

Merely suggesting a Christian or traditionalist should become emir of Sokoto can get you killed while other Muslims will simply cheer the killers they forget no one is more northern than the other, they will say respect the rule of the land

Hypocrite chameleons set of people

Being cunning is an art they have perfected, just like the terrorists will come in as peaceful preachers, but their aim is to subjugate and control you.

Bandits have started threatening ministers?

How did we get here...we said it, once bandits and terrorists, killers in all forms of terrorism will be emboldened, that moves of releasing terrorists has taken Nigeria to a dark era. Shame on APC and their northern governors.

See jonsing

IMF is just trying to secure their loans and members interest.

We are not a member of IMF, we are a customer, I wonder why we think their goal is our interest, lol.

Raf4:
Islam is majorly Arab's culture and traditions.
Have you ever seen where they allowed a Christian or Isese practitioner to become an emir or a sultan even if he comes from the lineage?

They don't know that carrying another man's culture for head to the point of hating your own African culture and brother because of those foreign traditions are religious fanaticism and a result of mental slavery.

Execution, using the gallows is appropriate for them.

Goodlady:
You didn't ask a meaningful question cos you ll just carry insult on the body of all Arab guys.
African heroes that some people worship as deities are legends on their turf. So Arab guys aren't better than them.

Apt...when they say in Africa we idolize, I laugh them, the other two major religions have things they idolize as well, the cross, the statute of Jesus and Mary that People kneel to etc, I have seen videos of people rushing and stampede in Mecca when pilgrims want to reach their holy stone etc, it's the same thing, but they say African religions idolize, when in reality all religions idolize...maybe they don't know the meaning of the word.

olawonder:
If Muslims force other faiths to become Muslims, why are you still a Christian? And why is the ratio of Muslims to Christians 50:50 or even more Christians than that in Nigeria? You Christians hate Muslims so much that it’s always your wish that the US should come into Nigeria to kill as many Muslims as it wants. It’s the same way you followers push your leaders to go into defenceless Muslim nations to kill people… yet, you’re the darlings of God, it’s you that Jesus love because you’re doing Jesus’s work abi?!!!

We are talking about religious extremism here, do we have anything like Christian laws?

Are Christians enforcing laws in areas they hold sway?

Imagine the type of nation it will be if all religions start enforcing laws in areas they hold sway, or don't you know there are dozens of religions?

Religion is for man not the other way round, you people take this religion thing too hard, it's personal, should be about spirituality not symbolism...promote education for almajiris so the kids can get a better future and less kids are lured into banditry, this is a more noble cause for you to pursue.

BlueRayDick:
How can you separate Yoruba culture from religion when you agreed in your first paragraph that Yorubas have always practised ATR long before the advent of Islam and Christianity?

Yoruba culture is deeply rooted in ATR and anybody who would be king should either be ready to abide by the culture norms and traditions of the Yorubas (which includes pledging loyalty to the deities) or forget about it.

Not everybody can be a king; most Yoruba communities have more than one ruling house which means there's option for the king to be selected/elected from any of the ruling houses and amongst the candidates jostling for the seat. Anybody who would rather practice a foreign religion instead of his people's religion deeply rooted in their culture should not be considered for the throne.

Saudi Arabia is Muslim country; they would never install a pagan or religious person other than Muslim as king. So why should other countries/kingdoms/communities bend their own customs to crown a Muslim or Christain king?

No mind the subjugated minds, they need to emancipate themselves from mental slavery.

NOETHNICITY:
here it is

Make una dey research before una dey argue

My point is why are pushing ideology of Saudi Arabia in Africa, or are you not African, born in Africa, your forebears are they not African?

Why pushing a narrative set out to use to conquer you, religion is practiced with sense.

Look at the North today, millions of almajiri kids indoctrinated, covering heads in poverty, begging...what is the benefit of that. Your life is more meaningful when you contribute meaningfully to society, these religious dogmas have no real benefits to society...with all the sharia in the north, the youths there are more corrupt, and engage in vices even more than is obtainable in the south...do things that benefit your fellow man, this thread has no value. I can't be researching on things that have no benefit to society, it's absurd to me that of all the problems in Nigeria, this is what you choose to talk about, not advise people about bokoharam and iswap killings in the north, instead you are pushing for more religious fundamentalism.

that judgement should be contested, the case revisited, the judgement is not sound.

NOETHNICITY:
The school isn’t bigger than the Supreme Court!


Has the Supreme Court ruled on this matter?
Yes
Is the school violating the supreme court’s ruling on this matter?

Yes, absolutely.

we have hundreds of religions, how will it look if all the kids are allowed to wear different headgears of different religions?

Nigeria is in this predicament of insecurity because of religious fundamentalism...I have never seen you people create threads on how to defeat bokoharam, but only create threads in pushing the same religious fundamentalism that bokoharam stands for.

Wallade:
No one is telling you how and when to wear hijab. It is your thing and your decision to wear it.

You can wear it at home or wherever, however, in school, especially schools that have uniform. They have dress code in that school and if hijab is not allowed on their dress code then that is the schools rule.

If your children must wear hijab to school then I suggest you should choose a school that allows the use of Hijab as a dress code.

Don't create problem and challenges where there is no problem.

Imagine if everyone start wearing different headgear in the name of religions...we have hundreds of religions...how will the school look?

Sometimes religion makes people shortsighted.

NOETHNICITY:
The school is not independent of the Nigerian constitution which allows freedom of dressing.


If the child’s parents chose to let their child wrap her head with a clothe, what exactly are you crying about for? Why are you against it?

The school has its own rules, uniform and modus operandi, why don't you take your kid to an Islamic school?

Primitive character Nd behaviour has never benefitted anyone. Tell me the benefit of this your thread, except pushing religious fundamentalism. Are you from Arabia?

This is africa, stop all this, focus on progressive things and innovation, how can a grown man be pushing primitive stuff, this religion people have been practising it before we were born, it's made by men, they are motives behind it, enlighten yourself, and be free.

FIRDAUS3:
you are such a myopic...........islam teaches us to learn from the cradle to the grave.

show us where and how we enforce our ideology on others?

your gumption callow to the point that the content of the Op stone-blind you and it turns you to a complete blackout.

The school is an independent institution, you are sounding like a fanatic, what's so special about kids wrapping heads, fanatiscm has caused terrorism, bokoharam etc, yet you people are pushing it. Indoctrination is very powerful...you don't even care about those being killed by bokoharam etc, but your interest is pushing religious fundamentalism.

What is the benefit of a child wearing head gear, instead of allowing the poor child get oxygen...una dey funny I swear.

A school as an institution has their uniform...the way you people take these foreign religions so seriously, yet I don't see the benefit, almajiris and religious extremism and terrorism are some cons of religion, yet you people want to push it down the throat of every spheres of our lives... Nigeria is a secular nation, if you want to live in a religious fundamentalist nation, go to Saudi Arabia, Qatar etc.

Once they get the numbers they use their sharia laws to intimidate and oppress.

If you can't respect a people's culture, leave, our cultural heritage and identity is who we are, religion is a function of indoctrination, borrowed scriptures from foreign lands. Our culture must dominate in our communities and towns. The easiest way to subjugate a people is indoctrinating them to disown their own culture, essence and heritage, for religion that is crafted by men.

Lagos should be beyond this as an international city. This is southern Nigeria, most of the fulani people are primitive, we all heard about what they do, do not give them chance in your domain, they will think they own the place, due to their obsession to enter the south by all means. People need to be wise, Yoruba culture only should be allowed to preside, not this. This is a very bad look for a mega city.

If our courts don't start giving death penalty to confirmed kidnappers, and the governors signing death warrants, then we are not serious. Prison doesn't scare demonic kidnappers, they want to make big money, but if they see they loose their life if caught, most will chicken out. I have never seen a country so docile as Nigeria, in America kill one citizen, the country will be shut down till attacker is killed.

Sir Herbert Macaulay was a great activist, honour to his name.

olawonder:
Good. Now we agree that the claim that Christians are being killed in Nigeria is cheap propaganda, because certainly none of the victims of attacks in the North are from the Deeperlife sect, which according to you are the true Christians!

Deborah was killed because if religion, this is religious prosecution. Blasphemy laws and sharia laws are religious prosecution when enforced on non muslims. We must understand that nobody cares about your religion, it is your personal business, forcing others to be like you is prosecution and evil.

Blasphemy laws in the North and the sharia laws being enforced on non Muslims is religious prosecution!

I don't know if Nigerian politicians don't understand what prosecution is... forcing others to behave like you or believe what you believe or kill or harm them is religious prosecution...the American senate sees all this, we can keep deceiving ourselves, everyone sees the hypocrisy here.

Nazgul:
One problem I’ve noticed with many Nigerians is that we love using things without fully understanding how and when they should be used — and that often leads to misuse.

Ever since I started living alone, my phone is always on and reachable — loud ringtone, data on, and “available” status. To me, it’s common sense. If someone calls at 2am, I assume it’s an emergency.

My pastor once shared a story about a man who was kidnapped on his way from Lagos to Ibadan for a burial. The first group (going to the same burial) driving ahead of him narrowly escaped the kidnappers and kept trying to call to warn him — but his phone was on silent mode. He didn’t pick up, drove straight into danger, and was taken. Thankfully, he survived, but when he was released, he later told them that he 12 missed calls on his phone after the kidnappers surrounded and abducted him. Those calls could have saved him if only his phone hadn’t been silent.

That story stuck with me.

With the security challenges we face in this country, it’s not wise to put your phone permanently on DND or silent. Think about it —

What if there’s trouble in your neighborhood and someone’s trying to warn you?

What if a loved one has an emergency and can’t reach you?

What if a job or opportunity comes your way, but your phone is unreachable?

We live in unpredictable times, and staying reachable is more than convenience — it’s a safety measure.

Let’s be more alert and intentional. Living in Nigeria sometimes feels like living in a war zone, and awareness is one of the few defenses we have.

Instead of Nigerians to be angry at being picked up like chickens by kidnappers, they are using it as an example... docility at its best.

APC want to cause problems because of their political ambitions...you and your political jobbers being used to cause confusion in Edo state will be put to shame. Iyaloja can never materialise in Benin.

If they are not sentenced to death and executed, then where is deterrence?

In this days of uncertainty, these tips are definitely useful, share as a public service. Mods take to front page, Nigerians need security orientation.

Unemployed youths take advantage of this, and start earning, I see most of you online all day, put in work to earn a good living.

Unwholesome dredging activities causes flooding, when we take all the sand from the water without filling back we create vacuums and water escapes out, rushing to anywhere in its path.

Tenrack:
I swear bro. It's like the lot of them are NPCs. They never seem to be bothered. All that concerns them is to move on with life like there's nothing at stake. Almost zombie like..many of them do not even care about awakening or enlightenment. Just zombie -esque human beings.

Apt, zombie... satisfied and trapped by consumerism.
