You don't know who I am or what my agenda is. And I speak English far better than you and your generation, so I clearly understood that the first article had a bit of an agenda. However, thats besides the point. I didn't link the article with you in order to discuss whether christians are persecuted in Nigeria or not, thats a different discussion. We're discussing whether they are in the majority or not, and all the available demographic data indiates that they aren't, and in fact that the muslim majority is increasing fast.

Jollof15:
The estimate was done by the US' CIA, and its probably an undercount, now Muslims are closer to 55, and Christians, 45%

If you get a chance, look at these

The one and only question is that is it only in Muslim-Muslim ticket that competency and capability can be realized?
If the answer is NO, Northern Governors should stop advocating for a Muslim-Muslim ticket. It is unfair to other faiths.

TINUBU should be advised not to fall into this pit.

Religion in Nigeria (est. 2018)[1]

Muslim (53.5%)
Christian (45.9%)
Other (0.6%)
If TINUBU choose a Muslim as running mate then either Atiku or Peter Obi will be our next president. Don't take other faiths for granted.

My one Kobo advise.

iamrealdeji:
Muslims own Nigeria. Igbo states that are dominated by Christians are very few,Yoruba states have more Muslims than Christians,Northern states are very many with very high population and they're majorly Muslims,Islam is the world's fastest growing religion and so it is in Nigeria,4 years to this time,the population of Muslims compared to Christians would be terrific. Let's call a spade a spade and allow our vice president to be Muslim. Heterogeneity of religion in leadership can only cause confusion. Developed nations have cabinet members practising the same religion. Dubai cabinet members are all muslims and Christians in Dubai are also enjoying their lives. Please someone should tell Jagaban that a Muslim vice president can only make Northerners vote for him. Atiku should choose a Muslim vice president too. He observes his salat well and we can see from the prayer mark on his forehead. He should only believe in Allah and not fall for threat of man. Non of them should give in to oppressions and threats. Its their rights to pick Muslims as vice president. They should pick Muslims as vice president if they want the North to vote for them. Nigeria is an Islamic nation.

Good morning nairaladers and happy Trinity day

So I went to church with my family, at the entrance of the church members of protocol use their security gadgets to search us whether we carry any kind of weapon. Me that did not even carry Bible expect my phone and offering, yet they use their gadgets on me.

My opinion:

I was just laughing because it seems they don't trust their members again for instance me a member of more than five years and listen to the pastor almost every week.
I think this acts in church will further discourage people from attending church services but to stick to electronic programmes

Aboki99:
Speculative ki, fact ni. What's the average rate of fertility I'm the south and North?

Westernization has affected u ppl.

davodyguy:
This simple means the northern Muslims don't regard northern Christians.

They can't allow Christians that are Northerners to lead them in NE and NW.

Bigotry if the highest order

Aboki99:
This is puerile!

Political parties care about a winning combination.

As a northerner, I know something for sure;

If Tinubu chooses a xtian as his VP he stands not a BAT in hell's chance of becoming Nigeria's president.

So the northern Muslims who constitute the biggest voting bloc in Nigeria will siddon look the minorities whose combined voting power is nowhere near theirs to rule over them?

Only with a Muslim Muslim ticket does the Apc stands a chance, otherwise they should as well quit the race even before it started. Reason?

The muslims are the majority in the NW, NE, NC and SW(for SW do the math state by state). The only area where Christians predominate are SE and SS. In fact, if not for the magnanimity of Muslims in Nigeria, a xtian can never be Nigeria's president! Yes, you heard me right because the muslims are the majority in this country even according to the CIA factbook (Google it and see).

abbey621:
The difference between the Muslim populace and that of Christians is that the Muslims are core religious bigots while the Christians are likely to compromise. Out of the 100 million that you mentioned only 15 million are actual registered voters. Out of that 15 million, at least 5 million will vote based on quality, physical location and other sentiments before considering religion.

Muslim Muslim ticket will jeopardise his middle belt or North central votes..mind you, there are lots of minority Christian tribes and natives in most of the northern states like Gombe, Borno, Adamawa etc.

Muslim Muslim ticket will springboard the start of his presidency on a very wrong premise and breed vices like disharmony, distrust and marginalisation..which was what PMB started with by his utterances against the SE/SS after being elected.





A Muslim/Muslim ticket might not be the worst thing considering he needs the Northern votes more than those in the South. There's nothing he can do to get votes in the SE/SS, the SW is already locked down for him regardless so his major focus should be on places like Kano and Katsina with the biggest voting populace.

Realists:
He needs to learn more about coaching from Ancelotti, on how to defeat English teams with loyal players. It's a record Ancelotti defeated English premier league, 1st,2nd & 3rd team with only one striker called Madrid Benz.

Stargangz:
I hate Liverpool with passion, make I just wake up one morning and I hear for news say dem don nuke arnfield will be my biggest joy, I hate to hear anything Liverpool, very noisy set of people and hooligans. To make matter worst, that their useless song or anthem wey dem take dey disturb my ear before their match dey annoy me so much. That mumu from Egypt talk trash say he want revenge, revenge kill am there. That ignorant Klopp get liver dey even disrespect my almighty Benzema. They say dem wan win quadruple, shey dem dey mara ni? Make I no talk again cos I dey vex.

ppogba:
If you go through the thread of the last match of this year's EPL, I said it severally and emphatically that EPL is a well acted drama, people castigated me. Just go through it.
Man City conceding two goals to Aston Villa on a day they had to win to claim the premiership. Then suddenly 3 goals in six minutes and the whole world went crazy without seeing the facade.
In Europe now, yansh don open.

Reussite:
Omo this match pain me. Liverpool should have taken their chances in the first half knowing that second half have been Madrid's from knockout stages.
14 UCL is just too much abeg. The only comforting thing for me is that Benzema did not break Ronaldo's record.

Angelfrost:
Honestly... Without him, Madrid should be trailing by at least 3 goals.

He has done for them in this game what a certain Spaniard has been doing for a certain top EPL team for several seasons!

Courtouis should be man of the match Walai

CommonSense1967:
The criminal Association of Nigeria CAN will be quiet now. You aslo won't hear from the religious fanatic Kukah.
Bunch of hypocritical religious fanatics masquerading as men of god.

GreyLaw:
Someone told me since last week that it would be like this. Also on this thread when Man city were loosing someone still categorically said Man city would score late goals because there is some level of fixing to these things.

There is more than meets the eyes to these things. It Durley isn't outright fixing but there is some level of control to these things beyond 22 grown men chasing a round leather.
