I don't understand. How does hawking or preaching in a bus concern the Senate? There are more important issues troubling us now as a nation...yet hawking and preaching are more important to the Senate. Na wao! By the way, na only Christians dey preach na. I have never seen a Muslim preach in a bus. |

Shamzo:It's not about preaching in the bus but it's about misplaced priorities and injustice. Go to Abuja and sone place up North, the road is blocked because of Friday prayers. BH, ISWAp and all are k3ll3ng Christians every day but nothing has been done. If you don't like the preaching, cover your ears with earphone. |

RoxyBrownAutos:How would you feel if you see a native doctor preaching about his religion in a public space? Respect yourself by respecting people's rights to a sane environment,if anybody wants to hear the so-called preaching, the person knows where to go. |

jaephoenix:The greatest logical person,is the person that recognize and acknowledge his depravities and come to the Lord Jesus Christ for total deliverance and freedom. |

IamHonourable1:Haha how will anyone feel,he is only exercising his right,so far he didn't force anyone to accept his preaching. Freedom of speech and right to religion is adequately guaranteed in our constitution. |

ogascomax:Typical Nigerian.....it is only right when it doesn't affect you but when it does, it is wrong and you want the country to develop with this mentality. .No religion is more special than the other so none should be given any special treatment....simple. |

Be deceiving yourselves. Some atheists say "May The Force be with you".. That's God, dude! jaephoenix:

mastermaestro:So what's the uses of churches then?...anyone that wants to hear your gospel knows where to get it...constituting nuisance in the name of whatsoever you're preaching isn't right...simple. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 9:41am On Jul 17 |
LLMG:It constitute nuisance in a public space....and as for all those things you mentioned why not pester the representatives you voted for to bring them into light?. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Jimmy231: 9:43am On Jul 17 |
Drsnives:Not at all you ought to respect those in authority why not preaching in the garage |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 9:45am On Jul 17 |
LLMG:Yes...those are the kind of things that should be looked into in the same vein as well. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 9:47am On Jul 17 |
onehope:Not priority doesn't mean it isn't right.....you can petition those you voted to represent you in the federal level to do the needful of those priorities as well while commending this one. |

And there are professing christians in the chambers oh. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Image123(m): 10:16am On Jul 17 |
Mattswaggz:Preaching the gospel is not nuisance in public space. You can enlighten the preacher if he's too loud or disturbing but it's not okay to criminalize it. How does preaching in a bus affect road safety BTW? |

Abeg who no like this law make him go court of law. |

Guestmale:Jesus Christ never said compromise public safety. If you think he did so at any point, provide an unadulterated reference. |

As an atheist, the fine should be increased to N5 million plus jail term. After they don chop watery beans for jail, and Jesus did not deliver them as described in their scam text, they will finally get sense ![]() |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 11:10am On Jul 17 |
Image123:It is nuisance just like someone playing music (maybe even sexual oriented music) or let's say a sorcerer casting spell in the bus loudly.....because you're comfortable with it doesn't mean it is right....churches and other places/platforms available to do those things exist for a reason. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 11:11am On Jul 17 |
pgirl123:Lol. ![]() |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Image123(m): 11:20am On Jul 17 |
Mattswaggz:i expected you'll use absurdities. Preaching is not a nuisance, neither does it affect road safety. If you are advocating for silence, then it should be made totally, consultatively and thoroughly. Playing music in cars, all kinds of loud talk including conductor screaming, external loud speakers nationwide, sirens, outside parties and tents, political campaigns, anything that exceeds a certain prescribed decibel should all be criminalized nationwide. That way, everything is balanced and we are all comfortable, not targeted and senseless. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Mattswaggz(op): 11:24am On Jul 17 |
Image123:You can tell your representatives in the government to include those clauses....I am commending the one they're doing now(it hasn't been passed into law tho and hardly would) and I am not in any position to add those ones you're talking about. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Guestmale: 11:37am On Jul 17 |
DaddyJapan:How did preaching in bus compromise public safety?. |
| Re: Senate Proposes N50,000 Fine For Preaching, Hawking In Buses by Bastiver(m): 11:47am On Jul 17 |
Drsnives:I believe this your question will be a valid one, only if you can send it to the house of Senate. Probably you will find a reply there. Thank you |
