What about south east
Anambra, 98% Christians, 2% Traditionalists.

Imo, 95% Christians, 5% Traditionalists.

Enugu 92% Christians, 8% Traditionalists.

Abia 94% Christians, 6% Traditionalists.

Ebonyi, 97 percent Christians, 2.8% traditionalists, 0.2% Muslims.


That's why Muslims dread that region.

so you believe what that guy wrote up there?
Yes it is correct. I often tell people that Christians in Nigeria are far more than Muslims. But for the fact that the northern Christians remain docile,the minority will be lording over them making them look like majority.

The only place Muslims are more slightly is Northwest

Inferiority complex is what is you Christians are having. The fear of Muslims sent you people to always cook up statistics all over.
Muslims got no time for cooking up statistics to show their numbers. Numbers speaks for its. Everyday your CAN president cries how many time have you seen Sultan cried and you claim are the majority 😁😁

I like your sincerity and honesty....it is too late to do anything reasonable.those parties are entrenched in those two states.you csn deny apc 25% in aks but you can deny pdp.pdp will almost certainly win aks...
You can deny pdp 25% in crs but not apc.apc has a good chance of winning.there are so many communities labour have not penetrated and lp can't do that even in one month..
I still insist that labour will struggle in bayelsa.
You guys really make me laugh.

It shows that many of you rely on assumptions.

Here in Ákwá ibom, those places you call Rural Area? It's even PDP and APC candidates that campaigns for Obi, as a matter of fact, they use obi picture to sell themselves.

They will ask you to vote for them in their party, and then vote obi for president, as to identify with the Obident movement bandwagon.

You see here in SS especially Akwa ibom, if you want to lose, just campaign for Tinubu.

It even got worse when Tinubu called Gov UDOM a small boy.

I was listening to a radio program, many people that called from Rural area were angry at Tinubu.
Rural areas in SS/SE is equivalent to Urban Areas in core North. They are very politically enlightened.

You don't have to say anything to those Urchins. There is no state in South-south that Obi won't win. All we are doing now is to make sure that none of Atiku or Tinubu gets 25% in any of them.

Sweet thing is 99% of the Northern Christians are OBIdient.

Add that to SE/SS and 60% of SW , then you will understand why PO already has his inauguration speech ready.
You don't understand the real struggle for power on local and international level.
After God, the next thing to fear is power,a legitimate Muslim Muslim tickets is the New next level for power.

You are very funny. In Ilorin metropolis, you will count 5-10 churches before you see one mosque. Your opinion of Kwara is laughable. We would be operating Sharia law if that was the case but such can never work here, booze is sold nearly everywhere. Kwara South is predominantly indigenous Christian population. Even the recent noises about hijab was enough to show you that Christians are no pushovers in Kwara. We are nothing less than 40% here and I am being modest.
Mr man.

Even core north has more churches than Mosque. It's not because the Christians are more. But Muslims don't just build too much mosques.
