Now the only presidential candidate messing with our diversity is from SW.

Do you know what diversity and inclusion does in society? It transforms.

When you allow people to thrive you effectively bring out the best in them and elevate their sense of dignity.

Conversely, putting barriers in their path because they don't worship like you do denies them to be optimal and as result affect their dignity.

So the leader of government can be assessed in how they have transformed society by reviewing their track record. Tinubu is a transformative leader.

Bring out an example of people that a Muslim Tinubu has blocked from thriving.

I have thousands who were victims, blocked from thriving in Anambra by Obi, a Christian....a non-transformative leader.

You are just a noise maker...

How Muslims are in the South East?

There are less than 5,000 Muslims in Igboland out of more than 40 million Igbos...

40million Igbos are not in SE. Your population at home is about same with total muslim population (Igbo, Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri) in Iboland.

Muslim population in Iboland is so much that they even have their own cemetaries.

The ratio of christian to muslim in Iboland is about 3:1. Interestingly this means for every 3million Ibo headcount there are 1million muslim population, living on the land in SE region.

You cannot count Ibo living in Kano, Kaduna, Lagos, Ibadan, Akure, Zaria, Maiduguri to inflate your population at home.

maestroferddi:
Hell noose...

Nigerian Christians will teach Tinubu and Yoruba Muslims a lesson they will not forget in a hurry ...

SW is the perfect model for inclusion and tolerance in Nigeria.

If religious tolerance is a huge concern for you, then you are best served under a President from SW than from anywhere else. Check out NE where his Vice is from you can also see they respect and tolerate others.

Will you not agree?

Nigerians have no guarantee of religious freedom under Obi. Look at his SE region, zero diversity. Do you see?
Then look at the region his Vice comes from, NW, zero diversity. Do you not see?

This pair of Christian/Muslim is worse in tolerance and inclusion of diverse views than is Muslim SW paired with Muslim NE.

I am sure you agree with me.

Bokoharam is breaching prison walls and snatching its members, Ipob dey home, praying, fasting and sending warnings.

You call yasef Biafran.

Truthisunique2:
is tinubu greed and personal stealing ambition greater than the unity of this country?

We only tolerate ourselves in this country we are never one, every group should be represented, jihadists don't come bigger than buhari that have been educating the idiot since 2015

Can tinubu not sacrifice his stupid ambition than burn down this country, have this country not given him enough

Then support referendum for division.
Dont vote anyone or support anyone.

Just advocate for independence of your own indigeneous land and end to Nigeria.

buckeyemedia:
Please Shut up, we are referring to the Federal Republic of Nigeria, you are bringing up the South East?

Nonsense biased muric Afonja.

Is FG the beginning of your charity...no longer at home?

Anywhere Ibo gather, chaos and tyranny usually follow.

Unlike Yoruba, guided by an etho of Omoluabi and with restraint to think before act in consideration of how others are impacted, Ibo is guided by desire to cause pain and suffering to others and so they reach out first with brutish force and venom, many times resulting in self-inflicted and irreversible disasters. To show remorse, they dump blame on their opponent for causing their suffering. On one side of the coin they are the aggressors, flip the coin and you will see they are also the victim.

After Obi's defeat in 2023 Ibo will not retreat quietly, he must blame Obi's defeat on an opponent....usually Yoruba will be blamed for betraying Obi, the South and Christianity all together. Yanminri is never at fault, others are to blame.

Help me ask Ohaneze why there are no muslim in any elected office anywhere across SE.

This diversity map is just a showcase of leadership state by state at zonal level.

I started to present the map at granular level, that is, showing religious representation at legislative level house of assembly by house assembly in each zone...but it is so lengthy I decided against that.

The legislative map presented a fact more shocking. Out of the six zones non inclusion is concentrated in SE, SS and NW but if I ranked them SE is worst in religious tolerance.

For instance, I found in NW they have Christians in their legislatures despite their Muslim majority. Similarly in SS, despite Christian majority they allow Muslim representation in State legislatures in the region. I give both regions kudos for that. Opposite is the case in SE, I could not find a single Muslim anywhere in legislatures across that zone. I tried finding a traditionalist, none either.

SE is the most deficient in religious inclusion and tolerance in Nigeria. Your political journey is dead in this region if you don't practice Christianity. Yet, they are the loudest and infront of the pack demanding inclusion and tolerance from others.

LegendHero:
The data present a clear statistics and a message to anyone thinking Asiwaju should have selected a Christian Vice from the North.

—There are 19 Northern states on the list

—Only 3 states have Christian majority.

It is only a person out of touch with reality that will think Asiwaju will go and pick one of those Christian minorities as a VP candidate in the North.

If in the future, a Christian Northerner emerges as Presidential candidate, he will need to pick a Christian VP judging from this list or else he will lose the election before 1pm on Election Day.

By the way, hope CAN can see that the SW got five Christian governors out of six states in a region that’s almost 50/50. I’m pretty sure if reverse is the case, same hypocritical CAN would have been crying blue murder.

Thank you jare!

Zeezenho:
You know what am talking about stop been mischievous. mosque I mean is not the edifice but the gathering. Can a yoruba Muslim lead any religious gatherings with fulanies in the he congregation? Can a yoruba man lead prayers in Saudi where arabs are in the congregation? the answer is still no.

What is the end goal of leading prayer to be validated a muslim, then troop into street to go slaughter non-muslims?

Its like a married man that denigrates single men for not finding spouse but at night go to brothels to sleep with ashawo. Why is he married, is the wife a decoration?

Get sense!

Zeezenho:
Na me you ask? You already know the answer.can a Yoruba man lead prayers in a mosque in the north were fulanies are present? The answer is no.

You see why they need a real Muslim in aso rock.tinubu is not Muslim enough to them .

So mosque is yardstick of a true muslim?

So there would be no true muslim in town if during pandemic mosques were closed to prayers?

DMerciful:
So you would select vp from 100 out of a population of 1 million?

Step aside if you dont know what representation and inclusion means, please...

Truthisunique2:
trash

Indeginous Muslims don't make up to 3% in almost all SS/SE states

Thats why you discriminate against them. Meanwhile yanminri is in Sokoto begging for representation and inclusion.

Why do you demand for yourself at national level what you deny others at local level?

Only indigenes of SW, NC and NE are credible to demand a leadership composed in religious diversity because in Nigeria these regions are truly vanguards of tolerance for all people living on their land irrespective pf faith they practice.

If you are from SE, SS, NW,....shut up!

Truthisunique2:
Don't

Repeat....

Diversity does not follow percentage The concept is for representation.

In a town population of 1million where only 100 people are Christians, you respect their mode of worship and not hinder their religious rituals. When passing laws you remain sensitive to how it may impact the 100 people that are not in majority.

DMerciful:
If Muslims are less than 10%, you'll chose them for diversity?

helinues:
Interesting gidigan

Truly truly, hypocrisy stinks

.

The way they make noise you would think they love cohabiting and tolerating people of other faiths.

If your zone is a blanket Christian/Christian or Muslim/Muslim, shut up! You have not respected diversity locally where it matters most, and have no earned authority to demand for it at where it matters less at national level.

Fellow Obidient Nigerians,

How can our members living in Lagos vote peacefully and without intimidation in 2023 with MC Oluomo, Tinubu’s number one thug on the rampage? We all remembered what he did in the 2019 elections.

Obidients say they do not need structure for Obi to win. So how will Oluomo target a non-structured party? What is he going to attack?

If you are Obidient and without structure, keep it that way so your movement and electoral activities have no footprint for thugs to target.

When you hear MEGA RALLY you instantly believe the grounds will be jammed. This is but a micro rally.

LP is known for one thing, noise!

If election was about noise making, Obi has already won. Unfortunately, it will be about ballots and events conducted at polling stations in individual wards. It is a direct translation of headcount. LP lacks the headcount on ground

When you hear MEGA RALLY you instantly believe

GenBuhari:
Last I heard from Adadike was about 3 weeks ago she was recovering from injuries after an IPOB Unknown Gunmen attack. I emailed her with regard to helping her treat her Aunt's leg ulcer, that was the only reasons she informed me what happened.
Since that email she has not sent anymore replies. She has not logged into NL since 12th June when I assume the attack occured.
If anybody knows her phone number please check on her.

I hope she is ok.

Truthsoldier:
Good day nairalanders

One of the things I by the grace of God has said is that I will try to say the truth,no matter whose ox is gored,and in this case I want to say something on I am going to try to be pointed.

I have tried making a post on this issue sometime ago,and I think I need to make another on this topic as occasion demands.

The upcoming elections in this country is going to be one of the most decisive elections that will ever be had in this nation of ours come 2023 as it was in 1993,but the way we are going about it in some quarters is going to make it look as if it is a thing of war.

Funny enough it looks like this game for the most prestigious seat of government in this nation is between the three major contenders from the three major ethnic groups in the country.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu from the West with Kashim Shettima a former governor of Borno state as his running mate and from the ruling APC government, both Muslims.

Atiku Abubakar from the North,from the Fulani extraction, a former vice president a Muslim with his Christian running mate from the South south geopolitical zone by the name of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa,governor of Delta state,both from the PDP

Mr Peter Gregory Obi from the East,an Igbo extraction, a former governor of Anambra state,a Christian,with his running mate by the name of Datti Baba-Ahmed a Muslim from the North and from the Labour party.

The interesting thing about this is how the followers both online and on ground or onsite has been going about in the expression of support for their candidates, I strongly believe that everyone is entitled to support any candidate of their choice whether they are from amongst the three major contenders or from the sixteen others.

There is a difference in showing love and extremism,the truth is that the way most of these so-called supporters go about in expressing their love for their candidates looks extreme,and even ridiculous and it puts their candidate in bad light.

If I am in support of BAT,Atiku or Peter Obi that should not make me to behave irrationally or be a blind follower,no,that should not make me to start looting,and threatening peoples lives because they are not in support of my man,that also would not be a reason in creating threads to manipulate peoples hearts and incite hate......


Typing....

OP,
I like your post, very sensible and I hope people heed your admonition.

Correction for bolded part....
Peter Obi, of PDP, and his Vice Datti Baba-Ahmed, also of PDP, both representing Labor Party.

Zeezenho:
Two reasons for his actions.

First Tinubu is overrated politicians,he know that his popularity and influence starts and ends in Lagos and to some extent south west. his personality and connections alone can not get the job done.

Second he is not Muslim enough to a northerner no southerner is Muslim enough.

What is the yardstick for measuring a true muslim?

. For Tinubu now to be given the ticket and turn around to do what he couldn’t achieve in 2015 despite opposition from Catholics and other Christian leaders is extremely irresponsible,” the federal legislator added.

Tinubu was DENIED the ticket. The ticket was not given to him.....he EARNED it!

omenka:
They say they don't care about those elections, that their only concern is the presidential election.

Thats their escape, that they dont have anyone on ground. They believe all the votes for Obi would come from internet, not at wards.

Are there any more elections between now and the presidential in Feb? Yes, there is in Osun State this Saturday July 16th.

To prove it has capacity beyond twitter and social media, LP should contest this election and win for its candidate, Lasun Yusuf. Osun is a proving ground for Obi to assess his chances in 2023. If LP wins it proves its noise online is not empty and should be feared by both APC & PDP. If it fails to record any victory then it is evident as far 2003 is concerned LP is an online chatter, nothing more.

Ned Nwoko has yet to hear, otherwise he would already have rescued her before pastor.
