Op should be more concerned about sharia, seems anywhere sharia goes extremists follow, Kwara is an example. Op be more concerned about almajiris who grow up to join terrorists, due to poverty, ignorance and indoctrination. Be angry at the source of the problems.

The reportage seem wrong..

I hope they look into it..

I blame Nairaland for airing your view.
The attack was carried out to send panick, fear and disruption of Christmas.

It is because the media houses have now realized that majority of the moslems are complicit in the fight against terrorism.
Was the bomb blast not happening on the Christian Eve? What if the bomb was kept in the mosque to be used for an attack at Christian gathering on Christians day?
You can fool some people some of the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time.

Perfecto!

The best is to divide Nigeria or separate igbos from una country then tinubu can be a life president of Nigeria

sweetkev:
Op, what is the ratio of terrorist attack on mosques and churches in Nigeria ?

This is another example of what was written in my last post. I know some guys are archiving newspapers. I need a data analyst to give us facts about these questions. Many Nigerians will be surprised. It's unfortunate that Nigeria media houses have been captured by politicians, so they report more on politics than what affects the ordinary man.

Tell your fellow Muslims to stop act of terrorism and see this type of news disappears.

What stops the Muslims from crying out loud to media like Christians?

e no go better for you

For USA to ask Muslim Minister of defence to step down for Christian Minister of defence, says, alot about Muslim complicity in fighting against terrorism in Nigeria. Most especially Muslim politicians from core north.

Now that Christian, who is not a politician presiding over ministry of defence, degrading of terrorists wont be difficult to achieve.

I sympathize with you but the majority of terrorists are Muslims....

Do not blame the media houses. Mooslim bombing things have made everyone loose any form of conscience when things like that happen.

Terrorism must be condemned whether it happened in the church or mosque. Nigeria should have zero tolerance for violence.. But you only cited 1 instance. Is one instance enough to accuse the whole Nigerian media of bias out of thousands that had been written all these years? The writer has not proven his case.

Muslim Muslim ticket not working for you guys ?

Education?
Go to twitter and scrap the comments of northern Nigerians regarding last night air strikes, for a sentiment analysis, and you will find out how much education is worth to a northern Nigerian.

This kind of statement confirmed the imbalance and inferiority complex of the southerners. I was telling my wife this morning how Southerners used to portray themselves as literate and civilised but yet we could visibly see how backward they are. One Southern person in my area have a total rickety commercial bus with flames coming out and polluting the environment causing danger to health. It has been like that for more than two years. I was like, see the literate and civilised people emitting carbon to our environment and endangering lives. What is the essence of education and civilisation of Southern people if they can't just think to fix their damaged vehicle ongoing for two years? That mean they are the real illiterate and education don't pass through them. They only have media to talk rubbish. So is your example too

Apt, they should focus on exposing the terrorists from among them, and sanction politicians who negotiate and hobnob with armed terrorists.

Peace deal where terrorists keep their weapons is very sinister and suspicious, northern youths should wake up.

The question is the depth of the social issue and the number of southerners that exhibit that trait. connect the dots and relate it to your northern Nigerians that are educated and their views on terrorism. Imagine a presidential spokesperson advocating death for blasphemy

Are Muslims fair to themselves and others? I don't believe so.

This perspective of the OP is the very problem we have in this country.

The liberal Muslims are worse than the fanatical ones because they hide their evil in plain sight; They are the PR team of the fanatics who maim, shoot and behead people they don't like.

They hide their evil behind "not all Muslims are terrorists",
they hide their evil behind, " the actions of a few Muslims doesn't define...",
they hide behind "Christians must have done something wrong to anger the terrorist...",

One thing you will never see them do is condemn the actions of these demonic humans and are always on social media to justify their actions or attempt to gaslight everyone. Shameless

Well, terrorism in Nigeria and indeed
globally is strictly linked to Muslims and
Islam...

If once in a while, a Muslim sect targets
another Muslim sect, it shouldn't be too
important a story for the general public,
because na fight between brothers ..😕😕😕😕

Judging from one side will not help you. You clearly haven't lived for long in the core northern parts of Nigeria...I assure you, you will run back to delete this post when you do...

Fair as in how?
When 99.9 percent of the terrorists terrorizing the whole world are from ur religio0n.

When you all have refused to call a spade a spade. What have we actually gained from that religio0n? De@th!

We know that terrorists apologists will not be happy at the US bombing..

Mitsurugi:
Which kain nonsense perspective be this? All the years cartoon from another country led to Christian killings, nko? What about the proposed hosting of the Miss World Beauty Pageant in Nigeria once upon a time? How many Muslims ever spoke out against Christian killings and the destruction of their businesses?

Nigeria First: A Call for Fairness in Our Media

It is deeply painful to witness how some media houses in Nigeria handle sensitive issues, especially when Muslims are involved. Recently, a tragic bomb blast occurred in a mosque in Maiduguri. According to reports, lives were lost and many were injured. This alone should have moved every conscience.

Yet, what made the situation even more disturbing was how some media outlets chose to report it.

For example, a headline from Channels TV read:
“Many Feared Dead As Bomb Blast Rocks Maiduguri On Christmas Eve.”

This headline is misleading. It subtly creates the impression that Christians were targeted during Christmas, without clearly stating that the incident occurred inside a mosque and that Muslims were the victims. This is not just poor journalism — it is unfair, insensitive, and dangerous.

Sadly, this is not the first time such a pattern has appeared. When victims are Christians, headlines often clearly state it. But when Muslims are affected, the language becomes vague or carefully framed in a way that distorts public perception.

Where is the justice?
Where is the professionalism?
Where is the humanity?

Journalism is meant to inform, not inflame. It should unite, not divide. A journalist must rise above personal beliefs and sentiments. Lives are lives — Muslim or Christian — and pain does not have a religion.

It is even more troubling that credible bodies like the NSCIA have reportedly raised concerns that some media houses reject Muslim-sponsored programmes, even when willing to pay, which clearly goes against ethical broadcasting standards. This should worry every fair-minded Nigerian.

Before we are Muslims or Christians, we are Nigerians.
Before religion, there is humanity.
Before bias, there must be truth.

Nigeria cannot heal when truth is selective and empathy is conditional. Media houses must do better. We must all do better.

May Allah grant justice to the oppressed, guide our leaders and institutions, and heal our nation.

Because they chose not to interfere in a minor misunderstanding between two good friends.

When the Muslims are hiding the terrorists?

Sheik Gumi is already a big reason why Muslims issues are not deserving such conscience

The attribution of terrorist complicity to Muslims as a collective is analytically unsound and normatively indefensible. Terrorism is a criminal phenomenon , not an expression of any religious tradition.
the views or conduct of Sheikh Gumi cannot be generalized to indict an entire faith community.

Sir, I agree with you, but shey na now una wan dey talk? U condemn it first and not wait for someone else to condemn it for U

If and only if Muslim clerics were vocal in the plight of the Christian genocide in Nigeria. The Muslim communities never condemned the atrocities of Muslim terrorists burning churches and kidnapping Christian. Why will the media houses report mosque blast differently? All terrorists must be rooted out including those in the military and government.
