The push for Sharia courts in Southwest Nigeria is causing tension. Muslim leaders argue it’s their right under the constitution to resolve issues like marriage and inheritance using Islamic principles. However, Christian leaders and groups like Afenifere oppose it, fearing it could disrupt the region’s religious harmony and secular nature. The debate highlights the need for balance between religious rights and maintaining peace in a multicultural region.

Let me just call your likes out straight.

Why is it that it has been some Igbo's on this forum and other social media that have been trying to force the sharia law on us?

Even Muric that was promoting it has backed down due to back lash. So what exactly/precisely is your interest in a must sharia law in South West?
Helinues, shut up and stop lamenting like a sex-starved widow!

You South West Muslims long embraced Islamism and all its encumbrances long before the advent of Tinubu's calamitous government and while other Southern regions were trying to warn you of the associated dangers, you were busy mocking and gaslighting the Igbos, claiming they don't know how to play the politics that you're supposedly good at.

Now the proverbial goose is starting to bring forth eggs and you're looking for who to blame for the stench? If you're not mad, then you most definitely left your brain on your pillow when you picked up your phone this morning.

Enjoy your Shariah and stop barking like a rabid dog on nairaland😂!

It is not even Sharia courts but Arbitration Panels that settle disputes between two Muslims or two groups of Muslims who are interested in taking their issues there. Just alternative dispute resolution panels for Muslims.
Besides, what's the problem of Christians with Sharia meant for the Muslims. In fact, not even for all Muslims but for the Muslims who are interested.

The likes of MUMURIC who are expecting to get grants from the rich Muslim countries should they practice sharia in their domains have been disappointed.

The thought about it alone is an Alien to us.

The thought is obviously not alien to your Asiwaju, who is a dedicated Fulani asslicker.

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country




Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

QUARANICALLY, SHARIA SUPPORTS 100% KILLING Of HARMLESS DEBORAH. ISN'T IT?

Was Shariah meant for Deborah before blood-thirsty Muslims murdered her in cold blood over alleged blasphemy in Sokoto?

Has Shariah actually proven to be just for "willing Muslims" in all the years Hisbah has been destroying alcoholic beverages amounting to billions of naira lost in revenue to the government and private businesses in Kano?

If you want to be mad, face elsewhere and exhibit it before you pour me saliva!

Be objective in your argument, Sharia court didn't sentence Deborah to death as she was never brought before any Sharia court. Stop sensationalise this.

I know your tribe, so what's your business in this?
Do you only talk on issues that concern yorubas in this forum? So how do you now dictate to him which issues to react on? The earlier you embrace Sharia, the better for you. There are good number of Muslims in yoruba land whose voices shouldn't be silenced just because you are Christian. You did it with their hijab, now it's their court established for themselves, haaa...... I just don't like oppressing people in the name of religion because everyone's faith should be respected

Just imagine a world without Islam, it would be a peaceful place for everyone! They can settle whatever divorce or what have they in their mosques without necessarily tag it a sharia panel in the public space. Those people behind it a promoting an agendum to collect money from the demonic religion promoters. Any religion that supports killing of human beings for it propagation is demonic.

That's your personal opinion just because you are not a Muslim. Allow people to practice their religion the way they want it in peace, there should be tolerance

Since it applies only to Muslim Personal Law, marriage, divorce, inheritance, custody of children and so on. I don't see it causing any problems.
Operating Sharia law in a secular country like Nigeria poses various challenges and dangers, primarily stemming from the nation's diverse ethnic, religious, and cultural composition. These dangers include:

1. Threat to National Unity

Nigeria is a secular state with a constitutional commitment to religious neutrality. Enforcing Sharia law in certain regions could deepen religious and ethnic divides, fostering tensions between Muslim-majority and Christian-majority areas.


2. Conflict with the Constitution

Sharia law may conflict with Nigeria's Constitution, which guarantees freedom of religion, equality before the law, and human rights. This can create legal contradictions, especially when Sharia-based rulings infringe on the rights of non-Muslims or women.


3. Marginalization of Non-Muslims

In states where Sharia law is enforced, non-Muslims may feel excluded or discriminated against, particularly if they are subjected to Sharia-influenced policies or court decisions, despite their differing beliefs.


4. Gender Inequality

Sharia law's provisions often differ from secular legal standards, particularly regarding women's rights in marriage, divorce, inheritance, and public participation. This could lead to systemic gender discrimination, contradicting constitutional guarantees of equality.


5. Dual Legal System

The coexistence of Sharia and secular legal systems creates confusion and inconsistencies in the application of justice. Conflicting judgments from Sharia and civil courts can undermine trust in the legal system.


6. Potential for Extremism

Strict interpretations of Sharia law could embolden extremist groups to push for theocratic governance or enforce their own version of Islamic law, further destabilizing the country.


7. Impact on Religious Freedom

Enforcing Sharia law in certain states may limit religious freedom for non-Muslims and Muslims who prefer secular governance, leading to resistance and possible unrest.


8. Economic Implications

Sharia laws may deter foreign investments or affect trade in regions where religious laws are strictly enforced, particularly if these laws restrict activities viewed as vital to business operations.


9. Public Resistance and Violence

The imposition of Sharia law in mixed-religion communities can lead to protests, violence, or clashes between communities, escalating tensions and creating security challenges.


10. Polarization of Politics

Politicians may exploit Sharia law for political gains, dividing the population along religious lines and weakening national cohesion.


To mitigate these dangers, there must be a focus on ensuring the supremacy of the Constitution, fostering interfaith dialogue, and maintaining a legal framework that respects Nigeria's secular status while protecting the rights of all citizens.

It is quiet shameful indeed to even think of the f u c king sharia anywhere down Souh and it all secretly started by that Iwo King and I kept asking is their no better person in entire Iwo lineage to remove this boy from that throne? Can't Iwo people do what was done for one Deji of Akure who was dethroned few years ago? Can't Iwo people capture this boy and drive him to Ikare Akoko where they used to dumped arrant King?

This boy colluded with the Fulani to destroyed his people heritage now see the result now and if care is nor taken civil disobedient will break out because people of Ekiti and Ondo don't take nonsense fight will soon erupt.

I blame Abraham for not controlling his prick and gave birth to a demon called Ishmael the forefathers of this world deadliest mistake called Islam. Islam is the worst mistake of humanity anywhere it enters peace will die a natural death.

Sad indeed! We warned SW people about these overly nice and accepting everything into their land now see the evil about to burst in that region. Soon ISWAP, Boko Haram, ISIS, Houthi, AL Queda,, Al Shaba etc will move to SW and from there to SS and before we know enters SE.

Iwo people for thee last time take that boy out of your Palace or be ready to bleed in the next few years when terrorist started shedding blood as they are doing up North since 1999 till today, a word is enough for the wise.
