gidgiddy: I dont think he would be the most popular man in the South-East if he was causing them pain. He has nothing to gain by causing his people pain
What is amusing is that in a country where over 300 school kids have been kidnapped, a Brigadier General executed, Bandits dictating the terms of peace deal, over 49 people killed Dank wasagu, Kebbi, all of this in the last one month
one problem doesnt remove the problem of another, they are all problems... That he is the kost popular man in the east says alot about his supporters. It simply means you cant see what is wrong in killing and oppressing people but somehow think its okay to justify with the wrongs of others... Remove the lid in your eyes first before you point at others
But someone's problem is Nnamdi Kanu who was in DSS custody for 5 years
gidgiddy: Kanu was kidnapped from Kenya, Kanu was in DSS detention 5 years, Kanu went to court, Kanu is now in Sokoto prisons
Nobody is interested in getting you bandits that are here, and not Kenya, your government is rather sending Gumi to negotiate with them, none of the bandits will ever see court or prison
There's a big difference
and all these absolve him of all the pains he caused to people? More so to the Igbos? Your submission reflects your level of cruelty when given the same opportunity to do the same
Whats the difference btw what Gov otti did and Gumi? Both making cases for terrorist. The scary part is the vast number of supporters they both have, meaning... Many nigerians dont have that human empathy to recognize the amount of pain every victim of thier terror acts have inflicted on people but would assume thier cause is more important that the amount of terror committed. I mean, with all the crazy inciteful vidoes, audios, the monday sit at home, the dirrectives to behead people, the feedbacks given to him and the amount of people killed... He can still be seen as some sort of hero. He isnt just the problem...its those seeing him as heros that are worse off
The moment you stop seeing yourself as the prize the better the Chances of dealing with the core innate challenges she faces that unfortunately money can’t buy
tungamaje: But according to the Sharia law, if you blaspheme, you should be lynched. And that's what the crowd leveraged on
The punishment for killing is life imprisonment or execution… does that make it legitimate for a group to kill or imprison anyone they see as committing the crime?
Mamaafrik1: According to the sharia rule answer the questions
1.What is the punishment for stealing? 2.what is the punishment for apostasy?
3.What is the punishment for blasphemy??
Answer those questions,there lies the answer to your questions.
Let’s assume execution is the punishment for all… the procedure is for a state to pass a judgement before carrying out the punishment, how does that equate to jungle justice? So you think because some one steals, anyone can wake up and punish the person by himself without passing through the governmental structure? K
MIND YOU AN AVERAGE MUSLIM WILL RUN FROM THOSE THREE QUESTIONS BECAUSE IT IS SHAMEFUL TO ADMIT IT THAT THE RELIGION IS NOT A GOOD ONE
The west are using the entertainment industries to feed are distractions pro max so we can remain the clowns and puns of the world. While it may appear that Davido and his likes are winning, the overview is the unproductive influence his likes are creating amongst many here that prevents critical thinking, industrialisation and core problems solving skills among the youths. While everyone points at the government, we forget who holds the most influence that shapes true movement. So before pointing fingers, look inward and see what exactly that culture is doing to the very vulnerable our society and how you are also a major contributor to the challenges faced
How does mob action equate to sharia law practice? How many mobs have lynched families for Fulanis in the accusation of heardsmen attacks? How many Hausas hqve been unjustly prosecuted that have gone unnoticed because it feed into the bias of their host community. Are those court approved actions? We all live in emotionally charged environments because the level of education is poor and it cuts across. Mob actions are mob actions from charged emotional outburst. No same court, panel or judicial system operates without giving room for fair hearing. Let’s just be guided.

Those are human beings like you and U,I BET YOU ARE PROUD??
gentleguy1975: the imam knows little about Islam, I remember years ago when he was attacking some Islamic names ignorantly,if you are the chief imam of Yoruba and you know next to nothing about Islam,then you should vacate the post
. He isn’t a Muslim, he is a one pretending to be one from the Yoruba nation apologists… his video has been circulating for awile
Ameduedwin: so other court created by government is on longer necessary except Sharia Court, what purpose does it serve to you that you must introduce in a south west?
Have you ever been to a customary court? Do you know what they do there? Many of us are poorly educated on how law actually works and how they are created.
Going by this sensational rhetorics it means every one in the united states owe $1,077,844. America that boast of tbe most stable economy owes 36 trillion dollars. I inderstand we like to play the victim all the time as though theres some medal to gain from the most negative attribute we can give to ourselves. Oweing isnt a problem, its having the confidence to payback and fortunately in a long time, our credit rating is improving internationally as it is projected that income would rise much more than it is at the moment... Peace!
The Police Command in Ogun says it has deployed a team of officers to the scene of Thursday’s kidnap of Mrs Odumosu, wife of retired AIG Hakeem Odumosu.
The command’s spokesperson, CSP Omolola Odutola, disclosed this in a statement in Abeokuta on Friday.
Odutola said the victim, a resident of Aminu Street, Orange Estate, Arepo, Obafemi Owode Local Government Area, was kidnapped at about 9.55 p.m. on Thursday while entering her home.
She explained that four masked men attacked and dragged her out of her Lexus Sports Utility Vehicle, taking her through a swampy area to an unknown location.
“The Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Warewa Division, has led policemen to the scene where they are currently searching the swampy bush area,” she said.
According to the spokesperson, the DPO had also contacted the Warewa and Maaba community heads to deploy local security forces to the riverine area.
“Further updates will be provided,” she said.
Odutola said the state Commissioner of Police, Lanre Ogunlowo, had been briefed and that all operations had been deployed to assist with digital intelligence to ensure the victim’s rescue.
If you lived in Ajah between 2002 and just a few years ago, you would have witnessed the intense violence that rocked the community—an undeniable case of oppression by the ruling state powers at the time. What’s even more intriguing is that after Ajah finally restored stability and normalized its leadership, the very challenges that once tore the community apart are eerily resurfacing, threatening that peace. This video sheds light on the untold truth of Ajah’s history, exposing the ruling families’ struggles against the false narratives being spread by some outsiders with a hidden agenda. Watch closely as we dive into the controversial realities of Ajah’s past and present, and the ongoing battle to protect its legacy from distortion. Don’t miss out on this explosive story that’s bound to spark debates!
princfred: It's not a matter of blacks here. It's Islam. ISIs were not mainly blacks but Islamist and white. Before we know nah you go say na America cos am. Everything and anything but Islam. Why is it soo hard for you Muslims to admits the overwhelming violence in your religion but as always seek to deflect, decieve downplay it and project (accuse) others of it as if that nullifies yours. Then still have the guts to demand love? While you show none or have nothing against yours showing none. Are you guys not demons with and manifesting all of these heinous combination.
That most pastors are fraudsters and sex maniacs .. Would it be nice to subject all Christians to policies that prevent them from doing something because we all know most chistains are fraudsters and sex maniacs... Would you like to be treated as one just because a few did so?
We don't even know what hate speech is....we don't even know how we hurt ppl trying to say we know better...
You can prove this right or wrong or what ever....in the end you sure would be better off for doing so...cheers
ikennaf1: The main thing paining me is that these Muslims copied the sultan of sokoto but they didn't copy any of our obas. weeping...
The suit and ties everyone wears is from where again? If you don't wear it properly to defend projects you loose scores, to get job's....why is the tie eprn so tightly in this very hot sun we live in...do Muslims have a problem with wearing suits? Do they mandate it that they must come in their jalabs?
The biggest injustice reeks on this platform...we believe tolerance is asking someone to drop their values even if its for a few hours...nobody would die...than of is for you to overlook their mode of dressing and accept them for who they are...lol who really is intolerant?
princfred: Because I do not know which in my neighborhood can go into jihad mode as and when, to protect myself i've got to keep them all at bay. If the rest and you don't like it, go deal with the barbaric ones amongst you not force me to endanger myself by allowing you in. Am not hating because am s lover of hate but to protect myself which you wont do Forme. Only a fool lets in snakes into his house just because some dont bite and some do and no way to differentiate between those that do, will do or not
I think u have just justified why the whites hates blacks and would always hurt them...Black's are violent and dangerous...if u ever come across any expressing such never get angry because this is who you are too

princfred: It's more about your violence first causing the hate.
Then is it proper that the venom be expressed through the kids? Or others who aren't the same as the perpetuators of crime. Do you get constantly attacked by Muslims in your neighborhood? Can you see how reactive you are to those who you don't even know and expressing so much hate? Can you build peace by fueling hatred and oppressing others based on sentiments that cannot be diagnosed?
This isn't how peace is created...tolerance and mutual understanding is how peace is built...no one likes to be devalued why do that on others...even kids? Pls I urge you to rethink and understand that not everyone is the same...in the end we are either good or bad...religion PR what not don't determine that its our individual attitudes that defines who we are. I wish you and your family good life n peace... Cheers!
princfred: Always Muslims feel their values are oppressed while they always seeking to impose their values on others. The school has its values which is students wearing a uniform for you even know the meaning of uniform? Tolerate the school values it is not a Muslim school run on Muslim values!! Why are you not complaining of Saudi Arabia not allowing Christians to even the religious activities based on their own values?
How in the world those this sound impository on anyone? Are they forcing other to wear it? Its on them not on others...that they are being forced to remove it can't is forcing values? How? Haba...the school isn't a Christian private school... Its a public institution thus everybody fundamental rights should be protected ....this simple! Be more tolerant! Read the previous msgs above its clear that the reasons most are against it is out of isamophobia ... Gosh!
dracosith: The only problem making other religions scared of bringing you close to their abode is your terrorism reputation. Nothing else and you know this.
So thanks for admitting....its more about the hatred more than the hijab...see wherec the seeds of hatred are being down from....ppl defending their fundamental human right are seen as ppl intolerant, violent and extremist but those who are fighting that a sect shouldn't based on their phobias are the good ones...look need I say more
Akjwyzepal: if you don't wear the hijab in gathering where other religions are present makes you a non Muslim right? Or better still Islam is a religion based on hijab is that what you're saying? The way u people worship this hijab is alarming.
How its seen can't be judged by you cuz u don't share the same beliefs ...its hurful enough to laugh ridicule and the likes but forcing others to stop their beliefs is highly oppressive. As said earlier this is exactly what forms racism from whites to blacks
Akjwyzepal: How are they oppressing there's missionary school's for Christian only, their's Muslim schools for Muslim only, and their's school that has rules and regulations without respect to any religion, don't be too ignorant to choose and obey the one in ur interest and stop trying to impose ur belief on something governed by its own law especially when their's a place to exhibit or practice your beliefs. Christians don't intimidate. Neither do they oppress.
When the blacks were always forced to sit at the back of buses...were there no laws to back them up? Who created those laws? Wearing hijabs are not your values so you can't understand what it means to wear one. They know why they do that. Its oppressive to force someone to drop his or her values for any reason...leg shuib refused to denounce Christianity in the face of death...it was just for her to say a few words...but she didnt ...that's how ppl uphold values....to u wearing hijab is something that can be compromised to Muslims it is not...u are not a Muslim so u can't speak for them...rather you should be compassionate enough to help uphold their values ...this is how to create peace and not the other way round.
resurgent4oodua: What are you talking about? Has anybody stopped muslims from adorning hijab on the streets of Nigeria?
What parents and schools are advocating is that Hijab should not be worn in our public secondary schools. Besides, there is a subsisting Court of Appeal Judgment upholding the right of muslim girls to wear Hijab. So where is the oppression and hatred?
As for me personally, I wouldn't allow my children go to a school where Hijab is allowed. That is my personal decision and no amount of muslim condemnation will change that. I am too experienced to be fooled by muslim lies. I know that the religion is violent and barbaric. No Jupiter can convince me otherwise.
You sould exactly like a racist who hates blacks and calls them violent...if you can't see the level of intolerance in your words and how you are already sowing the seed of hatred in your children based on your understanding of Muslims....if you see...its not about the hijab but your views on Islam that is fueling your stand...objectively wearing an hijab or not doesn't in anyway affect you but your phobia is why u believe and are oppressively saying they shouldn't wear it...bro its you who needs to be more tolerant andcaccommodating... Stop sounding like a religious racist
princfred: Your values where there is need for uniformity? Soo an alter can also start wearing his long robes to school for the quest of his value? Then where is school uniform in that? It is islamist that need to tolerate and respect the school managements secular stand on UNIFORM.
I think you would need to revisit the stories of the past where it was against the law for blacks to sit where the whites sat. That there are laws don't mean that there is justice. The laws where created for the whites to be superior over the blacks...now would you say every black man that revolted the injustice wax wrong to have gone against the law even though it was clearly oppressive against them....as I have said and been saying ..where we should be preaching tolerance we are preaching hatred and expecting us to have an environment full of peace....I hope we all learn to be more tolerant anyways
resurgent4oodua: It's the fear for our security: islamophobia
Can you blame us for having a morbid fear of islam?
I need you to answer my question.
And you cant see where the problem lies? You are oppressing the values of those you have phobias for and you tagging in on a law....where you need to preach tolerance to yourself you are fueling it with hatred....this is where Nigeria's problem is...we hate ourselves and pretend as though all is well...this is how the whites hated the blacks and always managed to somehow push the blames on them even though they were the obvious victims
dracosith: I have every problem with that since Muslims all over the world have proved to be so cruel and security threatening. I ain’t saying Christians are all saints but the majority of the world security invaders are Muslims (correct me if am wrong). So the best way this can be tolerated is not reminding us who you are. Islam always has its way of forcing there life styles on every one else and every society. What is actually your problem? How can you allow hijab to case such a disaster? If the protest was that no prayers should be said on assembly grounds or Islam prayers should be said along, it would be understandable. But bringing your religious culture for everyone to not just tolorate but accept is madness and selfishness. I will never take my child to such school. No other religion family (be it Christian, sango, osun etc)will feel secure doing this considering the Islamic extremism all over the world. You guys should just grow up and give peace a chance. No other religion would ever do this. The Jehovah witness don’t clap they hands when praising God but have you ever heard them protest on that? Every religion has its life style yet choose not to be problematic but Islam, no way. You always find every way to to throw a grenade. #givepeaceachance
Have you objectively seen the world to see where the troubled hot spots are? Objectively, who gets killed the most in their own countries? If you go to the north the larger populations are Muslims. Who gets killed, raped and enslaved the most? How many Muslims can go to the east to build mosques anywhwre and brag about it anyhow? But who makes the loudest noise? Who cries foul even when the issues have nothing to do with them...
The big problem is we are all getting less and less tolerant of one another and wanting to impose our believes on others ... If you check this objectively you would see that those who are crying as victims are the ones who are actually oppressing
princfred: Your values where there is need for uniformity? Soo an alter can also start wearing his long robes to school for the quest of his value? Then where is school uniform in that? It is islamist that need to tolerate and respect the school managements secular stand on UNIFORM.
If he or she upholds those values to his or her life why not? The point is u can never create balance in a system by oppressing the values of one over others. Those are not your values so u can never understand why it is they do what they do to protect it...its this simple....tolerance is what I see every one lacking...you see their values through yours and assume what is best for them or not...that pure intolerance and injustice
princfred: Stopping Hijab wearing in school is not analogous to stopping people from going to church.
Its their value, not yours that's the point...you have your values and would always guard it...forcing everyone to drop their values to align with laws that in every sense is biased itself is injustice ... As I have said where tolerance is missing hate is replaced
I have read lots of comments here and if we would be objective...the people pointing fingers at Muslims for being too religious are actually the ones being non tolerant...to start with, you want to force other individuals to see things your way based on in qoute 'law' when u are fully aware that it is purely against their values...no one is forcing everyother person to put one on but you are forcing the to put it off meaning forcing them to change their values...how would you feel if you are being mandated to stop going to church? Not like every one does but if you were forced to stop it wouldn't you feel oppressed?
They wear the hijab for their own values not yours...wearing it in reality don't affect you except that others are less tolerant and less judgemental ...in a sane environment people fight to defend the values of others. If I had a budidst friend and I am a chirstain if I know its against his values to eat cows as a friend its not for me to force him to eat cows but help him eat something else aside cows...this is how to build a respectable society....tolerance is what is missing here and clearly most of everyone here would rather force others to be who they dont want to be rather than tolerate who they truly are and let peace reign .... This is what happens in marriages too...everyone wants to prove their values are supreme and thus impose it on others . pls let's be more tolerant with ourselves. Thank you
