Freedom of Religion, you can not force someone to change their beliefs which are passed down through the bloodline, unless you make them hypocrites which will undermine the faith. There are martyrs for every religion because people find it very hard giving up something they deeply believe in. Respect people's religion in the land.

What development has been recorded since the practice of sharia at the Northern part of Nigeria?
Banditry, kidnapping, herdsmen attacks, illiteracy, poverty, backwardness, bigotry, all vices.
These are the hallmarks of Islam.

This Sheik concerns about Sharia in the South West are valid given the region’s religious diversity.

Hear me out...

Imposing Sharia could ignite tensions among Christians, Muslims, and traditional worshippers. A better solution is to maintain a secular legal system that respects all faiths while allowing Muslims to practice Sharia in personal matters, like marriage and inheritance, through voluntary adherence...

This approach balances religious freedom with social harmony, avoiding conflict and respecting Nigeria’s pluralistic society.🤷🏽‍♂️
Nothing like Sharia in personal anything. If you want Sharia, move to the North.
In Yoruba land, we'll use our Yoruba customary law or the Nigerian law of inheritance.

"chief imam"

"Christianity gave birth to Islam."

Dumb statement devoid of knowledge

Now tell me how Shariah Law can affect you
“So, if a father who is a Muslim dies and some of his children have converted to Christians, in Yorubaland, all of them will have access to the inheritance. But, if they apply Sharia, the Sharia Court will say, since the child has left Islam, he is not entitled to the inheritance of his father who died as a Muslim. Therefore, Sharia cannot work in Yorubaland if we don’t want to ignite war”, he concluded.

Where is all this Nonsense coming from that they are introducing Sharia into Yoruba Land, how does creating of Sharia Court in Yoruba Land translate introduction of Sharia Law to Yoruba Land.
Some people never failed to public show their absolute stupidity and hatred, what's the problem of introduction of Sharia Court to Yoruba Land.
If nobody force your Papa go Sharia Court abeg shut the Bleep up.
ediot, is the sharia court going to use Nigerian law to judge people?
Re: Introduction Of Sharia Will Ignite War In Yorubaland – Chief Imam Of Yorubaland by MightySparrow: 7:11pm On Feb 06, 2025
When I heard they met in Ekiti, I laughed. Ekiti where many villages and towns do not have a single mosque not to talk of worshippers. Another cause of laughter was that, as an Ekiti person myself, I couldn't imagine my daughter or wife being molested by one bastard shari'a enforcement agent. Ọmọ, e go red. I trust Ekiti people.

Why do we need Sharia in the first place? Are our laws not sufficient enough?
the judiciary has been compromised and it always favour the highest bidder so we need sharia courts since the judiciary is not the last hope of the common man let's try sharia cut and see if ritual killings and drinking of alcohol will not reduce drastically in d west..I stand with shariA court in the west..this imman is stupid

Re: Introduction Of Sharia Will Ignite War In Yorubaland – Chief Imam Of Yorubaland by StoryHaven:
THE FIRST ISLAMIC LEADER IVE EVER SEEN TALKING WITH GREAT SENSE AND SINCERITY.

THE NORTH WANTS TO USE THE HEAD OF THE YORUBA MUSLIMS AND MANY HAVE FALLEN FOR IT.
THEY WANT TO CAUSE RIFTS BETWEEN US USING RELIGION FOR THEIR HIDDEN AGENDA. AND
IT WONT WORK.

WE WERE YORUBAS BEFORE ANY OTHER THING.

WE HAVE BEEN LIVING IN PEACE MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS AND TRADITIONAL RELIGION WORSHIPERS.

WE LOVE OURSELVES EVEN WITH DIFFERENT RELIGIONS.

YOU SEE THAT MURIC, SMH. grin

I remember when doing OND in a Yoruba Town in the late 80s.
We were broke as students. 5 of us living in the building.
Nothing to eat.
Three of us were Christians and two were like atheists.
One of us said to us.

"What are they celebrating three buildings away?"

Another replied, "It is Mama Sango that is doing odun Sango,"

Another said, "Ha, Mama Sango's daughter is Depo's girlfriend now,"

Depo replied, "She's not yet my girlfriend, im just wooing her,"

"It doesn't matter, go collect food from her now," grin

Me, "Ounje Sango," grin

Kehinde: "If you are not eating, we will eat it,"

Na so Depo waka comot from hostel go try im luck. Luckily, he came back with Amala, ewedu and gbegiri.

We all sat round it and someone said, "lets pray on it o,"
Na so we pray and wack the Amala.

IF SOME OF US WERE MUSLIMS AND THERE WAS SHARIA, ONLY GOD KNOWS IF THEY WOULD BE ALIVE TODAY.
SHARIA WOULD HAVE SHARIA THEIR LIVES BY STONING THEM TO DEATH OR CUTTING OFF THEIR HEADS.

YORUBAS ARE GOOD WITHOUT SHARIA.
IT WON'T WORK IN SOUTH WEST.
Re: Introduction Of Sharia Will Ignite War In Yorubaland – Chief Imam Of Yorubaland by McDoe(m): 7:14pm On Feb 06, 2025
This is the truth. God bless the Imam for speaking the truth. Arewa and Islam are 5&6 that keep deceiving themselves.

Hypocrisy is when you say you don't drink alcohol but enjoys the money from alcohol

Somebody said Imam is the Father of Aseyin of Iseyin


What?
In Yorubaland?!!

Do you even know who Aseyin is ?

Aseyin is like Alaafin’s 3rd in Command of Oyo Kingdom ( The one that reaches and includes
Benin republic, Togo, and Ewe in Ghana), are you trying to put an imam before him?

Do you even know how many Traditional rulers are under Aseyin?


Why do some of our Muslim brothers like looking for big big fight like this?)

Yorubas are peace loving people

Y do u hate that which is good and love that which is bad for u...sharia is good and should be embraced by all Yoruba Muslims..imagine the drastic reduction of ritual killing and skull mining in ogun if sharia is enforced in ogun state and other neighbouring state...Muslim should be allowed to choose the law they want to obey...sharia law will curb crime in d west..as a south south Christian I stand with shariA law in d west...

“Sharia cannot work in Yorubaland because our general language is Yoruba. When we talk of Yoruba, there are three distinct religions. Our original religion in Yorubaland is a traditional religion before the advent of Christianity. "
Is he saying that Islam is a fake religion?

So, Sharia cannot work in the South West. Sharia is an agenda by the North”. “What they want to do is to first use Sharia to settle marital crisis, they are deceiving us. Thereafter, they will say whoever wants to share their inheritance in the Muslim way should do so. If they apply that, in Yorubaland, a father may have children who are both Christians, Muslims and traditional religion worshippers. “

“So, if a father who is a Muslim dies and some of his children have converted to Christians, in Yorubaland, all of them will have access to the inheritance. But, if they apply Sharia, the Sharia Court will say, since the child has left Islam, he is not entitled to the inheritance of his father who died as a Muslim. Therefore, Sharia cannot work in Yorubaland if we don’t want to ignite war”, he concluded.

Factcheck0001:
Where are d Igbos to come n read this?

Don't b surprised that even this man have Christians in his family

One thing about religion in the south west is that it is too interwoven that no matter who u are u can't fight it

Imagine a man as big as oyedepo saying he still has Muslims in his family

Imagine the family of the twins below, how do u bring Sharia law or extremism to this now?

Imagine I am a Christian but I have both Christians n Muslims from both sides so how will someone convince me that Muslims or Christians are bad

People I have lived with since when I was young, imagine an outsider now telling me they are evil
I'm a Christian just like my dad but my lovely mom is a Muslim, an Alhaja for that matter. So, I don't know the preaching any pastor would do to convince me that Muslims are bad. In fact, such campaign cannot hold water in the south west where I belong.
