Everyone criticizing Muric will cry about Islamizing the Railway if the reverse is the case.

Government no too so well.

I'm glad he made mention of we having a Muslim president on a Muslim-muslim ticket.

What step did MURIC take to remind federal government and NRC when the festivity was getting closer in case they forget? Or did MURIC purposely didn't want to remind federal government or NRC so that they can hang on it to pretend they were marginalized for eye service purposes.

If it were Hajj, you always remember to remind government because it is usually expensive, but because you likely wants to reserve train issue for eye service purposes, you never reminded federal government or NRC despite many Muslims are there working with NRC and government. To me, this is just an eye service allegation just to make your BaD mind known about other issues bothering you. Christians are more far educated than Muslims because they have many more quality private schools and have specialists in almost every areas of human life that government always need to work with for good governance purposes. Christians have more human resources than other religions that government will always seek their expatriate.

Muslims should spend more on western eduction, set up more universities and get adequate funding for their existing universities that are always below standard so they can have more human resources in future that government can always work with. There is a limit, government can talk about equality when there are no adequate human resources to tap from among Muslims as compared to their christian counterparts

Another Perspective

The argument should hv bn about Nigerian masses not enjoying free train ride during these holidays.... Not about Christians or Muslims because both members of C & M enjoyed the free train ride in December 2024!

This man too like wahala. Honestly
Because he is simply demanding for the same right you christians enjoy he is looking for wahala.
By God, some of the things we muslims take on the chin you guys won't tolerate ⅒ of it before saying your popular humdrum:"Islamization agenda"

They are so many things in this country skewed in support of you guys , but muslims dare not speak about them otherwise it is looking for trouble or we "too like wahala."


HYPOCRITES!

Equally valued in your own country?
Yet we have a MUMU ticket in aso rock.

Guy please!
It's not really about that .
It's about how you people misinterpret and spread the lies that there is Muslim agenda if anything is done to make us meet the bear minimum standard you guys have being enjoying for years you start pointing fingers and accusing the leaders.
Any leaded who as much as try to show any sort of Islām in what he does you come out gun blazing so MURIC for now is the only voice of conscience that challenges this skewed system.

Keep quiet and stop playing the devil's advocate. Ask yourself how many Christian presidents we have has since democracy came compared to Muslims. Also ask yourself why we had a Muslim-muslim ticket last time and likely again in 2027. Ask yourself why Deborah was burnt alive and nobody was prosecuted for it despite video evidence. In a sane country, Akintola would have been arrested and charged to court for all his inflammatory remarks over the years
Any time I see Deborah's issue whenever we are discussing issues totally unrelated to her case I feel the person speaking is deliberately being mischievous or just totally ignorant about how to place issues.
The Harira and her kids that were killed in the South East?
Who talks about them!

We are talking of equal treatment of religious festive periods you're bring in Deborah's issue, how some of una dey reason sef eh, na wahala too

But Muslims always have an agenda. Otherwise they won't burn Deborah alive in full public glare without any consequence.
Can a Christian do that?
The christian farmer that killed a herdman in self defense is facing a death penalty as we speak.

Go north, come west. No busy celebration like Salah
Don't know about north, but no big deal in the west and nothing compared to Xmas.

But when you have an ISLAMIC BANK giving loans to Muslims with zero interest and Christians have no such, that is fairness grin

Bunch of un-redeemable clownnsss

And to Seun, there should be freedom of speech on your platform.
Your bots are too sensitive. Even, when you are making a serious canter points you get banned. Without abusing and cursing.

You are killing the vibe on Nairaland gradually. Ride on.
The bots are extremely annoyingly sensitive.

I'm a Christian, but his concerns are valid. It's only fair that free train rides be declared for either of the sallah celebrations.
Julie, the reason for the train last year was to cushion the effect of the fuel price increase which was really really distasteful. Government only offered free trains to look concerned.
Let's see if they repeat the gesture again this year.

It's really understandable why MURIC is upset about the train rides. When you see free rides for Christmas but not for Eid, it absolutely feels like a double standard. Professor Akintola makes a strong point about fairness, and it's especially jarring when the government is led by Muslims.
This isn't just about train tickets; it's about feeling equally valued in your own country. The government really needs to explain this disparity or, better yet, fix it to show all Nigerians that they're treated with the same respect and consideration.
A Muslim has Christianized the Country!!!

Leave the festive period matter alone. It should not be our top priority when we have more serious issues. Deborah was killed cos she was perceived to be against Islam. Harira's case was ethnic violence not religion based so don't change the topic. If ipob wanted to make it a religious war, they would have burned down the mosques standing in igboland and even attacked the Muslim settlements. If you're talking about religious oppression, Muslims have been the ones oppressing others here. It was so evident that we could see it on nairaland for years when we have to swear to comment on their threads. Christians are very tolerant people but can we say the same for many Muslims especially northerners? Once anyone mentions Mohammed, you lots would pounce on that person to kill him or her. Very backward people

There were no trains to the East where Christmas is widely celebrated and no free ride for new yam festivals.

What is MURIC even talking about? The Christmas and end-of-the-year train rides were basically enjoyed in Muslim majority territories.

That's bad . He has a point. What's good for Isaac is also good for Ismail...
South East doesn't have a functional train service connecting the states which they are willing to pay for not to mention free service for Christmas, no new train project is even ongoing, is that not injustice?
South West and North have new train projects even one leading to Maradi Niger Republic

What is good for Christians during Xmas celebration, should also be accorded to Muslims in Ileya celebration. Muslims are the most tolerance people in world.
