That is why we need sharia court in south west to protect our Muslim family's here.
Or what do you think?
Area courts already cater for Sharia matters in the South West.The North uses Penal code where theft and adultery is a crime while the South uses Criminal code.

how is adultery a criminal offence? it means more than half of our population suppose dey prison now especially those political bigwigs.
It is a criminal offense because the law says so in the penal code. The penal code applies only to northern states.

So why do we still need deadly Sharia law that will ask people to burn the lady to ashes and leave the man.

Since the SW don't want it in their region, you can as well ask them to bring it to SE region. At least the number of Moslems in your region is increasing on a daily basis now

It is just unfortunate that you can't reason properly. A man reported that someone was sleeping with his wife, and all the court could do was to give a verdict of three-months in prison or paying a fine of N25k. Your stupidity couldn't let you see the triviality of that case, Just imagine it was your wife, would you be contented with that judgement?

Shari'ah is a law by the Lord Who has Lordship over us. He stipulated the appropriate punishment for every offence according to their gravity. Had we followed the law, there would not be fornication or adultery at this larger scale. It would be at a mimimum par. What is the punishment in your belief?

Finally, Tinubu has turned the judiciary into a preposterous institution. The Nigerian judiciary and the Nigeria Police Force: can't even tell which is more corrupt.

So, adultery is now a criminal offense in Nigeria.
That's a customary court
This platform reeks of ignorance and childishness

Either I don't understand this law, or it's a law meant for the extremely poor and illiterate. Why are all the politicians and big men of society not behind bars? They have side chicks and still cheat on their side chicks with another side chick, yet I’ve not seen any of them arraigned in court.

No body is scared of Sharia law, the SW is not like the North that have a high population of Moslems more than the other religions. This will also cause instability in the SW, so are you believing what those Moslems guys are saying, that is how they will tell you it is just for Moslems alone, before you know they will start extending it against other religions in the State. Even most of the Moslems in SW are rejecting it.

Are you saying there are no adulterers in the northern states where sharia law applies?

Imagine an offense which even the magistrate judge is currently committing.

After sentencing the convicts, he moves to the hotel to relax with Anita and her friend.
