Yoruba don enter one chance.

Very smart game being played here,

Use an igbo Muslim to write your letters and communique to make it seem democratic where as same igbo Muslim lawyer can't lead them in prayers.

After the south West, next stop to set up shari'a law and court will be Imam Haroun Muhammad Eze Esq. Village in enugu state and then the entire south east. Ndi iberibe

Wallade:
sponsors of the move to install Sharia courts and system of government in the Southwest is manifesting now.

The Sultan of Sokoto and the Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs is part of the plot. That plot will fail. Sharia is unwanted in the Southwest. There are courts in the southWest that can handle civil and criminal offences hence there is no lace for the primitive Sharia rules and punishment.

Any body in the Southwest that is not comfortable can go to the North where Sharia is practiced to stay and reside.

Do you know that if Sharia is allowed in the SW, it means the Sultan will be making laws for Yorubas.

Can the Ooni make laws for traditional worshippers in the North?

We embrace all religions in the Southwest. It's common to find families with both Christians and Muslims, and some even include traditional worshippers living in peace and harmony.

What we reject is fanaticism, which can lead to terrorism, religious conflict, and Christian cleansing —like what we are witnessing in Plateau, Benue, Southern Kaduna, and other areas.

https://x.com/NSCIAng/status/1884589162214408592?t=oW33Ol_6p_RRWsTdzwaxNg&s=19[/quote]The concern here isn’t just about religious rights—it’s about safety, unity, and governance. Forcing a Sharia court where people don’t want it could create unnecessary tension and division. The South-West runs on a secular legal system, and adding parallel courts might complicate justice and fuel conflicts. Plus, throwing hijab issues into the mix feels like a distraction from real governance problems. Instead of stirring controversy, leaders should focus on security, economic growth, and actual justice for all citizens, regardless of religion. The last thing Nigeria needs is another excuse for unrest.

But they are tolerance to Christians during those attacks and ethnic cleansing especially during el rufai and co time? They are just testing waters anyway. SW indigenes are very tolerant when it comes to religion, they should not poke into their affairs.

Southwest is known to be tolerant and accommodating. Let's not spoil that reputation. Please let's welcome and accept Sharia in good faith.
God bless the people of Southwest.

Re: Nigerian Supreme Council For Islamic Affairs Condemns "Intolerance" in Southwest by Omonigeriarere: 12:32pm On Jan 30, 2025

It was rejected because:

1. SW contains states with many religious groups. The implementation of Sharia law will exacerbate existing tensions between these groups. For instance, non-muslims who eats food openly were dealt with in the northern part of Nigeria during fasting period without recourse to the supremacy of the constitution.

2. The region has undergone significant social change and modernization; we see the implementation of Sharia law as a more primitive and archaic system. Even Arab countries are finding ways to do away with its tenets and principles e .g Dubai

3. The Southwest region of Nigeria is one of the most economically developed areas of the country. Some individuals may view Sharia law as incompatible with modern economic development and Western-style education.

4. The implementation of Sharia law may create parallel legal systems, leading to confusion and potential conflicts between Islamic and secular laws. The brutal killing of Deborah is still fresh in our mind.

5. The rise of extremist groups like Boko Haram in Northern Nigeria has created concerns that Sharia law will be used to promote radical ideologies.

6. The Southwest region of Nigeria has a significant Christian population and a strong presence of traditional religions. So, we view Sharia law as incompatible with their beliefs and practices.

7. Sharia law is for the poor citizens. e. g. El-rufai daughter remains untouched and unpunished for wearing transparent clothes during the wedding ceremony as Hisbah duddenly became toothless.

How many Sharia courts are in the Igbo Muslim's state? He should start with that rather than tell Southwest those jargons.
