Raiders:
I am speaking the facts. All religions including christainity and islam encouraged violence at one time in history

When Bush destabilised Iraq and Afghanistan ,it was very hard to see any religious laeder in the globe to criticize miscreant Bush and tyrant Blair of USA & Britain respectively. These are the criminals that led to killings of innocent 12 millions people. Desmond Tutu said: Justice will only come to the world only if these two above mentioned criminals are tried and brought to book @ ICJ .
Mind you, no religion encouraged violence in the world.

kushstalin:
I definetly do not agree with u mr president because...

You might not agree with Mr president but you need to check yourself may be you are alright

Raiders:
All the 3 major religion holy books promotes violence. The old testament of the bible is filled with violence and killing of non jews. The Muslim and Jewish books is also fill with violence and killing of non believers. Religion has done man no good but brought wars, killing, discriminations and division

You are speaking out of context

BrosPeter:
GEJ seldom make mistakes but he erred
this time. APC is boko haram and boko haram is APC. Both are fighting for moslem domination.

Are you alright?

No matter the device apply by the comprado bourgeouos to split us. We shall remain one.

Gboliwe: reason with your head for one second sweerie.
That your rickety car you use for kabukabu, was that what your dad gave it to you to do with? The laptop some students get as gifts from uncles to aid them in their academic pursuit, were they asked to use it for business abi you don't see them using it for that? Abeg, this is just a normal, regular thing we are all a part of. If he isn't in need of it for a while , and parks it unused, do u have an idea that it may develop faults when next he might use it? What's wrong in leasing it out and using the remittance for evangelism? I am sure you didn't consider these angles before quoting me

Its good leasing out a jet at the detriment of ordinary Nigerians . Oritsejafor and his cohorts should be jailed now or when the time arises. Kòní bó nbè ameen

ideycraze: I thank Mr Falana for coming out with the truth.
CAN will soon label him an APC sympathiser.

Either FGN is their to prosecute him or not, none of them will go unpunished . Falana is doing a great job.

cr8v: I don't care what anyone says. When Boko Haram was buying, no one knew. If Christians decide to defend themselves it is a pity that it's fellow Christians that will write this trash. Stay there until Boko haram evolves to ISIS and start chasing you defenseless out of your country. The federal govt may not have told the whole truth but these jihadist know how to cover themselves that until now no one knows the sponsors of Boko and how they brought in heavy weapons into the country. At least it is not open in public circles. Festus, stay for Lagos I no blame you, you are not a northern Christian so you will not understand

Go and study history how turkey and some other former Christian nations to Islam. They did that by force from jihadists and there lack of unity amongst believers.

***Addition***
I have read the comments of most people who quoted me while the ones that called themselves Christians resort to insult because they think they are protecting their faith, the Muslims have only one argument "how did Spain become Muslim?"
First to my christian brethren, you say the govt should not hide such tns, well I never said the government said so I'm only speculating that if that be the reason then it is justifiable. You say that GEJ has caused more religious divide ever since he started, well thats because some faith don't want him in power and will do everything to unsit him like they do in other places like Egypt, remember this people are willing to die for the nonsense they believe. Jonathan owes it a duty to protect her citizens and that is what Ayo has been accusing the FEG for not doing. And for some ho say that self defence is wrong for a christian, I laugh because you have just imbibed the Jehovah witness misinterpretations. When soldiers met John the baptist, he didnt ask them to resign from fighting wars to be counted as repentants. This is because there is nothing wrong with the military. Islam needs the like of Israel to discipline and keep them in check

for the muslims who say that Spain is Islam, its surprising that people still believe this propaganda their imam fed them. Wikipeadia has it that "As of 2007, it is estimated that over 1 million (1.6 as of 2013[1]) Muslims live in Spain,[2] most of them recent immigrants from North Africa, Middle East, and South Asia; although there are also some Spanish converts, estimated at between 20,000[3] and 50,000." out of over 40million people, 1 million is islam and they say spain is islam. Muslim marry many wives and give birth in multitude so their number seem to grow while christians practice family planning. stop deceiving yourselves statistics show that spain is 78% christian and only 2% muslim

If you are truely a good researcher who use to visit library constantly, you would have come across and read about Muslims in Spain that reigned for more than 800 years.
Look for encyclopedia Brittanica and read more. Christian killed millions of Muslims and the worst part was that most books written by Muslim scholars were looted from the library and taken to the west and translated to English and claimed the authorship. Read well, is that understood? The crusaders were the one in charge.
Despite all these, a reasonable Muslim should not wage a war against christians ,a reasonable Muslim will not even dare to kill Sheikh Albany and his family just because he preached against boko haram . Think objectively my dear.

farem: MUST READ: Pastor Oritsejafor Finally Speaks Out On $9.3m arms deal

The President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, on Monday said he knew nothing about the controversial $9.3m smuggled into South Africa by two Nigerians and an Israeli, using his private jet.

Oritsejafor broke his silence during the National Executive Council meeting of CAN at the National Christian Centre, Abuja.

The CAN leader regretted that there had been attempts in the media to link him with the incident by mischievous elements, adding that he had kept quiet all the while, because he needed to explain his position to the church which is his primary constituency.

Oritsekafor, in his address, a copy which was emailed to one of our correspondents ‎ in Kaduna State, declared that he was never a party to the movement of the $9.3m from Nigeria to South Africa to purchase arms and ammunition.

He said, “I want to assure you that I will not do anything to tarnish the image of Jesus Christ or compromise the divine standard of the church.

“As you are all aware, the media has been awashed in the past few days about an unfortunate incident involving the movement of funds from Nigeria to South Africa. In the unfortunate news reports, attempts have been made to link me directly with the transaction.

“So far I have refrained from making any direct public response pending the time that I would have brief the leaders if the church and explain my position on the issues to them.

“I believe that the primary institution that I owe any explanation to is the church.”

‎Oritsejafor added: “At the risk of being seen to be defending myself, I wish to confirm to the distinguished leaders of the church that the Bombardier Challenger 601 aircraft in question is mine. The aircraft was presented to me as a gift by members of our congregation and ministry partners worldwide at my 40th anniversary of my call into the ministry.

“May I be permitted to stress that the aircraft was not given to me by the President of Nigeria, neither was it a settlement for any political favour or patronage.

“With the benefit of hindsight, the President of the country was a guest in our church during the anniversary celebration when the jet was presented to me.”

The CAN leader explained further that “the President of Nigeria has nothing to do with the gift of the aircraft. By the way I still wonder why all those saying this, still cannot come out to show proof so that the matter can be put to rest once and for all. Let me say that this might be an issue for the courts in the near future.”

Oritsejafor who also explained the circumstances that led to the involvement of his aircraft, said “in order to ameliorate the cost of maintenance of the aircraft, I sought and got permit to allow the aircraft fly in and out of Nigeria.

“Based on this, I leased the aircraft on August 2, 2014 to a company to run it. It was the leasee that entered into an agreement with the people who carried out the transfer of funds. Having leased the aircraft to the Green Coast Produce Company Limited, any transaction undertaken with the aircraft can no longer be attached to me.

“Inasmuch as I am shocked and distressed by the incident, I wish to appeal to Christians in Nigeria to remember that a war has been waged against the Nigerian church. This war is being fought on many fronts and this unfortunate incident is another dimension in the assault against the church.

“It is clear that those who manipulated this conspiracy desire to create a schism in the church.”

According to him, “the media hype and the deliberate distortion of information that followed it confirmed that forces that desperately desire to cause division and disunity in the church are at work. Even the devil knows that a house that is divided cannot stand.

“As Christians, we need unity in the church now more than ever. We are witnessing inhuman attacks by religious extremists against Christians in the northern part of the country, while christian infrastructure is being destroyed in hundreds.

“If we permit the enemy divide us, our chances of corporate survival shall be severely threatened.

“Distinguished leaders of the church, please permit me to state clearly before God and before all of you here present today, that I am not a party to the movement of $9.3m from Nigeria to South Africa to purchase arms and ammunition. I am not part of the deal. I know nothing about it.”

‎The CAN President commended the Catholic Church for its support, particularly in refuting a distorted news item by mischievous elements in the media.

He appealed to heads of blocks that constitute CAN and head of denominations and Christian leaders at different levels and spheres of influence to use their good offices to caution and control their subordinates and followers from making public statements that will further polarise the church and strengthen the arms of the enemies of the church.

Quoting Matthew Chapter 18 verses 15 to 20, Oritsejafor said, “If I offend you or you offend me, instead of talking to media, let us talk to each other within the house of God.”

Oritsejafor has been masterminding the killing of ordinary Nigerians in the north. We can now see the link between the Christian boko haram in the north and the chieftain of CAN to create imbroglio in the north.
Oritsejafor and Dokubo had a good link and it shall be exposed soon .

BekeeBuAgbara: For the second time Fayemi is trying to regain power through the back door, why can't he respect the wishes of the people.

Be calmed before unnecessary allegation , it was Fayose
that took hoodlums to the court not Fayemi.

It becomes no senses in electing a miscreant as a governor. The Osuns nearly joined the race of evil in electing another academic butcher. Shame on one bag of rice collected before voting. Shame on the electorate that voted for a visible tout in Ekiti state. Well , the mistakes can still be corrected in either court of law or 2018.

Blackfire: religion and holiday.. if atheist demand for there own work free day,they will kick against it

Its not good to die in isolation. If you are an atheist kindly organise a press conference and demand for a holiday.
هل أنت كفر..؟

timilehing: then I think you should follow in same Faith with Abraham, tie your first son for sacrifice and wait for ram to show up

Lets try to learn and abstain from abusing what we believe in.Its barbaric to disrespect others faith. An educated person will always be convinced after thorough research and not after hearsay. A verse in the Quran says: Whosoever is guided, none can mislead and whoever is misled none can guide except God . I wish you learn the religion of Islam and stop spreading rancour. I wish you EID KABIR in advance.

CharlieMaria: So..... Well am happy because I no go hear say bomb land for anywhere again. After all shekau shecow is dead.

Kudos to nairaland that exposed you to the world. Imagine how hatred is being spread . If Christianity or catholicism was not attached to the elimination of over 6 millions Jews by Adolf Hitler , how dare you attach boko Haram to Islam? I wonder how hatred will stop in this nation? I have said it repeatedly that Quran lay emphasis on killing just a person is similitude to killing all existing mankind.For Allah sake, بوكو حرم Boko Haram are not Muslims.

It baffles me to see constant hatred in the comments of most nairalanders . Kindly abstain from religious bigotry and goes to work on 6th and 7th October if not interested in observing the holiday.

I wish all Muslims globally happy EID-L-MUBARAK

عيد المبارك

keypad1: children go dulll well well this year

Drill your children not to be dull. Muslim holidays has nothing to do with dullard ...Spread peace and not hatred.

HAPPY EID KABIR IN ADVANCE ...

justi4jesu: I love them because of their Holidays

As a Muslim, there is no limitation to love . Rancour and animosity cannot take us anywhere. I love eveybody for
God sake not for holiday sake.

HAPPY EID KABIR IN ADVANCE

kristisking: When an enemy knocks at your door,danger is imminent.For how long will yorubas remain as slaves in the hands of northerners?

You are bias and too ethnocentric for this ridiculous post. I don't really know where exactly you originated from but I'm disappointed .

HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS , SANUSI LAMIDO SANUSI . The Ekùn ökö Jonathan who was relegated as a result of animosity against him and later elevated by HIS creator.

karpentar: What is wrong in CAN president supporting GEJ? Or you prefer him to support a Islamic terrorist APC party?

IF YOU CALL APC SUCH NAME IT MEANS THAT PDP IS THE GRAND FATHER OF TERRORIST GROUP IN NIGERIA WITH ORITSEJAFOR [CAN] AS THE SPIRITUAL HEAD....

lyntiffany: your the one who is damn myopic, and shekau a core Muslim who fights for Allah the tool of infidels ? You are simply a senseless BABOON.

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD A RIGHT THINKING NIGERIAN REFERRING TO SHEKAU AS A MUSLIM .
SHEKAU SHOULD BE CONNECTED WITH ORITSEJAFOR .
THE GRAND PATRON OF BOKO HARAM

Abraham2013: Dere is no "we" in dis case, d authorities will ask questions and he(pastor ayo) must produces answers to clear himself. However immediately d incident was reported, lai Mohammad and el rufai instantly took to d media in dere usual manner and started calling pastor ayo n GEJ sponsors of BH, claiming dat Pastor ayo was importing weapons 4 BH and niger delta militants to use 4 2015. So one of d CAN directors is writing to disabuse d minds of d public against wat lai mohammad and el rufai is saying. The truth is dat dis case will be investigated by d south africans authority and those found guilty will be brought to justice. If u say na lie ask henry okah, those south africans authorities no b like our naija own.

Human being easily forgets issues: Oritsejafor is a complete politician with cunny habit. I knew that USA prediction doom shall be perpetrated by unknown set of miscreants one day. As regard Henry Okahs case, GEJ had committed a blunder that the northerners are behind the attack which was later discovered it was his village boy that wanted to kill him. None of them wl go unpurnished .

Virgindove: This rejoinder rather than vindicated the CAN president, indicted him. He should resign & join TAN to campaign for Jonah.

Very logical indeed, PAO should step down as a CAN leader and abstain from parading himself as such due to the embarrassment he had caused on national issues.

First and foremost,Nigerians should abstain from hatred and all sorts of rancour . Its very sad and highly barbaric to see a scribe under CAN writing on behalf of Pastor Oritsejafor business imbroglio .
Let the case be properly investigated , nothing is wrong if the CAN president is romancing his Christian brother GEJ . If Sultan of Sokoto or Emir of Kano were to be indicted in this scandal, one would have seen hatred and expensive animosity flowing in pages of newspaper by Islamising it.Whatever you sow you shall reap by the special grace of God...
He was quoting Oritsejafor as regard BOKO HARAM status quo in USA . The US who trained OSAMA to destabilized Soviet union because of personal interest also brought him down when there was no more positive interest.
GOD ALMIGHTY WILL EXPOSE ALL OF YOU IRRESPECTIVE OF RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION AMEEN.

Seanixking: R.I.P Prof.....Hope ya lived a fulfilled life in christ..anywayz #Only God cn judge

You have given judgement already...Spreading an unneccessary religious hatred.
To the erudite Prof . May God be pleased with the family.

gbaskiboy: This man dey see vision even d lost malaysian Airline he said he saw d vision before d incident occurred. why can't he sees the vision of his collapsed church. OMG! Judgement go start from household of God oo

No matter how powerful we are, let's try to be careful because all vision seers are blessings in disguise. Moreso, most of them are connected with evil spirit.

Hon Bankole is a man of honour , let him choose any party he deem comfortable with. Is it a crime to defects,afterall all of them are political prostitutes.

The hidden knowledge is attached only to God almighty .
You can now see that the word PROPHET attached by any religious leader is a great taboo.
Oh Lord ! Guide us to the right path....

GOD HAS CREATED EVERY BEING TO BE SUPERIOR WITHOUT BIAS. THOUGH, IT'S FUNNY BUT MAKE USE OF REASONING....

Indiscipline is @ alarming rate in Nigeria ,only God sent leader can eradicate it .If such an atrocity is committed in the west, such an individual would simply be dealt with for such impersonation .
GOD BLESS NIGERIA AND NIGERIANS .....

DickDastardly: Whats that? Some fettish pot? I only take chilled boddle warrer

Its never a fetish nor evil pot but a blessing from our grandfather's local technology .
