Dodola: Islam has become key to political offices or appointments in Lagos. This has become very prevalent under the political dispensation from 1999 to date. In as much as Lagosians are religion blind when it comes to politics suffice it to say that our politicians have somehow used it as a way to gain favours here and there. For instance Tunde Fashola had to slot in the name "Raji" to his full name and its known he was not a practising Muslim prior to his office attainment. Even now some new Commissioners in office today suddenly grew Muslim names to their names as they were appointed. It might not be in place, but what is clearly seen remains that Muslims in Lagos State use the imams connections through various mosques and Islamic quarters to lobby for their wards to get political appointments and employment under the Lagos public service and Government. If u transverse the whole of Lagos State civil service a survey will show overwhelming percentage of Muslims here n there. It has also cascaded thru the Local Governments both in Chairmanship, councillors or employees within. They use also the pilgrimage to Mecca in all manners of ways. If you take a trip to Alausa during Sallah, rams, rice and vegetable oil are bought and given out in droves. I can say for a fact that Muslims are not more than Christians in Lagos but it should be noted that when it comes affairs of the State at Governmental level, they have formed a network and cartel. This also has led to certain indices and attitude that has plastered the system in manners that leaves a lot to be desired. To be a Christian in Lagos guarantees you very little in terms of Political favours or appointments.
