Nchenches:
But why humility, equality and... are not practiced by Nigerian Muslims when they are alive?
Why would a Muslim strive to convert non Muslims to Islam by force, and ostracise Muslims who converted to other religious faith?

The peace they proclaim is peace for people within the religion.

Dagger111:
I so much love that practice in Islam. So beautiful and unique.

That is because you are a Muslim

jaszplus12:
In Truth, there's no ritual for burial in biblical text, bury the dead, remind yourself your time will come, take care of the living and move on. But because humans love flamboyant ways they do what they do to impress others or to give impression of "assisting" or "ushering" or "guiding" souls to the world of the dead and brand it "Christian", it not so in the Bible go and check. All that is absolutely IRRELEVANT!!

What I tried to explain to you is that the word ritual is not a evil or dark word, ritual simply means practices in a religion, every religion have their practices, therefore every religion have it's rituals.

Banhammy717:
There will always be intruders in every religion.


ask...why does the Christianity religion attract so much desire for luxury through fake prophesy from non actors who pretend to be christians and why so much indecent dressing and accusations of illegal sexual activities against pastors. This has led to many pastors losing their marriages.

Desire for wealth is better than killing people and screaming jihad, am sure even you will agree.

Banhammy717:
Forget about few individuals who pretend to be Muslims but they are terrorist.
Islam is a religion that teaches modesty and humbleness.
You came to this world with nothing and you will leave with nothing, that alone is a lesson on it's own.
Forget about politicians, a Muslim leader such as Imam in the Mosque will never ride in private jet while his Mosque members live in abject poverty

It's in the works not symbolism.

Look at the North and look at the south, it's clear to see who are retrogressing...I always ask...why does the religion attract so much bandits and why so much killings in its name?

No smoke without fire.

Hardeybohwarley:
Thanks. My religion to me and yours to you.
I see you're a traditionalist but I'm sorry I'm a Muslim.

Stop saying religion is above tribe, say to you, because it is a very ignorant thing to say, you were born into your tribe, and you embrace Arab culture as yours, this is as a result of religious indoctrination...or when you exit this phase, will you be buried in Arabia or Nigeria

Ade1177:
I went bankrupt when my dad mum died

All from pressure from family
Do this
Buy that
Party
I spent a huge sum of money

How much you spend to Saudi Arabia pilgrimage?

Anijay1212:
In some communities you are forced.
You have to settle certain interest before you are even allowed to commence the funeral rites proper. I don't have the time i would have explained more.
Cheers.

You were born into a community, every religion have it's rituals, you sound ignorant.

Rituals is defined as a religious or solemn ceremony consisting of a series of actions performed according to a prescribed order.

Rituals don't mean dark arts or evil, the problem with you is you have been brainwashed to hate yourself.

Talkisneeded:
I’m a Yoruba man before anything,people will address me as a Yoruba man before asking for my religion

You are wise, no mind the brainwashed pawns.

Dalohad:
Ndigbo should learn from this burial practice. If person for Igboland, the relatives dey get high BP because of expenses wey dem go do.

Death is costly in Igboland and many parts of southern Nigeria..

No be everyone dey poor, money must be spent on something.

amnesty7:
Sheer waste of valuable money that could have been used by the living. At the end, it doesn't really matter.

Trips to Saudi Arabia and government funding it is a waste of funds that could have been used by the poor.

sojiooo1:
Well, this is not Muslim or Islamic culture. This culture is synonymous to Arabian culture before Islam.

Most Islamic rituals and cultures are Arabic culture.

Hardeybohwarley:
That's not true Islamically. So I believe I have a right to my belief as a Nigerian.

The dust, soil and earth of this space moulded you, your folks were moulded from this same African soil, and earth...in the end this same African earth will keep you, Arabia lands won't give you any space to rest, unless you pay through your nose. Wake up.

Hardeybohwarley:
Ftc in a while.

Here is a poem all Muslims brothers and sisters.

Tribalism!
It stinks!
Abhor being tribalistic!
Taqwa defines a Muslim!
Don't pick tribe over Islam!

Tribe is above all religions, religion is borrowed, tribe is who you are. Wake up.

It's not enough to be buried without coffin, what matters is the impact, you people are self righteous, all those killings of Deborah in the name of blasphemy laws is evil.

erniok:
Jumped into a convo and had a wonderful opinion. How smart!!!

You are not a gas marketer, everytime chochocho, you kids are paid saboteurs... otherwise I don't see any reasonable human being who will be angry at lower prices, that is the beauty of a free market, if you can't compete, go home.

kingthreat:
Yes ruthlessness is necessary with these devilish scrap boys. True Sanwo Olu is all about going to parties here and there than actually getting work done.

Sanwo Olu seems to be happy to be governor, he is not working like Fashola or Ambode did. Lagos is so dirty, these bola boys from North litter everywhere and steal anything iron.

Listen to the righteous preacher...God bless the preachers that live righteously.

Southern Nigeria don't sleep, we must establish a regional security network to protect our borderlines and highways and forests.

kingthreat:
not just in Lagos. The whole country. The ones that scavenge public property should be given capital punishment. How can you remove manholes so people have accidents?

These accident that is as a result of manhole stealing leads to death, sanwo olu should emulate Fashola, when Sir Fashola was in leadership, Lagos was sane, clean, and all these nuisance were rehabilitated with their families...not always smiling and being happy, a governor's job is to maintain sanity, prevent unnecessary deaths and make Lagos sane and devoid of nuisance. Sanwo Olu seems carried away.

A state filled with beggars and dirty people disposing garbages indiscriminately can never be a world class city, you must sanitise Lagos, take these beggars and scrap boys back to their states.

Sycophancy is a disease

Taich:
This headline has many hidden meanings. Like Dangote or hate him, the masses are the ones being played here. Dangote came into the Cementing sector, we all other players were pushed out. We know how the price of cement went. Dangote business model is market disruption at errant, then monopoly and finally the masses pay massively for the only supplier.

I have people thinking my statement lacked facts, Dangote and Ibeto has been in and out of court over cement, Dangote and BUA has issues over sugar. Dangote cement is one of the priciest in the market. These are facts, Dangote business model end game is monopoly.

What is your business over disagreement between two billionaires, don't be naive, in life it is about interest, your interest is in reduced prices, unless you are a gas marketer...but the interest of Nigerians supersedes your interest and that of a few gas marketers, Nigerians love reduced prices, you can venture into another business if you can't adjust or compete, and stop sounding like a saboteur.

erniok:
I'm responding to you based solely on the report sir. How he wants to engage them is known only to him. Whether he'll import, get from NLNG or ramp up production to give them a run for their money is his business.

You people don't know that life, democracy and everything is a game of interest, don't be naive, unless you are a marketer, your interest is in reduced prices.

FreeIgboho:
Dangote better be careful. This is the kind of thing that has Bill Gates in trouble in certain quarters - crashing people's means of livelihood by donating it for free!

Are you a marketer?

Otherwise you are being naive, your concern s a consumer should be lower prices...don't be too smart to your own detriment. Focus on your interest, your interest as a consumer is lower prices, over sabi half wise, so you don't know Dangote produces locally, this will also boost our naira, due to reduced dependent on foreign exchange to buy imported gas...all these paid saboteurs, una plan no go work.

Nigerians love lower prices, Dangote should find a way and get distributors, cut off the marketers. It's a free market economy, the lowest prices wins. This is an illegal protest.
