If he doesn't sponsor the Christians, he's a terrorist !

Now that he sponsored them, he's wasting money!

Satisfy human beings at your own peril.

WHY IS THE GOVERNMENT ALWAYS SPONSORING PILGRIMS, WEDA CHRISTIAN/MUSLIM.

ISN'T IT A WASTE OF PUBLIC FUNDS.

IF THEM NO GET MONEY TO GO FOR PILGRIMAGE MAKE THEM STAY HOUSE, NO BE BY FORCE.

Should we now clap for Yuguda for sponsoring the state's indigenes on pilgrimage?
Those christians Bauchi is sponsoring are Bauchi indigenes, is Yuguda doing them favour?
If muslims in Bauchi could be sponsored on pilgrimage so also must the christians of Bauchi.
I sorry to say but I swear na tribalism go kill you... What do yoiiu want again.... Chai! Chai! Chai!

A government that cannot pay salaries for legitimate work done, but can sponsor pilgrims to Mecca and Jerusalem.

Talk about priorities in governance.

[size=18pt]Government wasting tax payers money to sponsor pilgrimages to Jerusalem and Mecca is what has plunged Nigeria into this bloody mess.
These idiots keep on violating the Federal Constitution and the hypocritical Christians and Muslims applaud them. [/size]

When did christians start this "pilgrimage" thing? Why don't they just say they are touring Jerusalem? This copy copy eventually you will become muslims.
I read the bible from genesis to revelation. No where in the bible have christians been told to do a pilgrimage.

This is one policy I'd like to see scrapped. Let anyone who wants to go on pilgrimage do so on their own tabs, christians or muslims.

Government should have no business dabbling into religious issues. It should be strictly personal and private. I don't think there is anywhere in the Holy Books where it is stated that pilgrimage is a prerequisite for redemption or salvation, making heaven or paradise.

Besides, the process of selecting beneficiaries is acutely corrupt and marked by extreme cronism. Applicants bribe officials and officials
select, in most cases, their kith and kin. Now,how do you reconcile this process with the purpose of the schemehuh In addition, most people go on the trips just to tour the respective countries and not strictly for spiritual cleansing.

Let everyman take care of their spiritual/religious expenses.
God will bless you a million times , anyone who wants to go to Mecca , Rome , Jerusalem or wherever for his religious whatever should do so from his pocket not from public own , nonsense angry angry

Mr Yuguda, I don't see any big deal in what you have done... The christians are also indigenes of bauchi state. If you can sponsor Muslims to Saudi Arabia, you should also reciprocate such gesture to bauchi Christians by sponsoring them to Jerusalem also....

Fellow Nigerians, let's give GMB a chance to prove himself to us next year by voting enmasse for him.If he disappoints us like the way PDP is currently doing , we would also vote him out come 2019...

Vote GMB in 2015

simplemach:
Why is he telling us, he should also tell us how many millions of muslim pilgrims his govt has sponsored within this same period.
You are a hypocrite!

How many Muslims have so many other state governments sponsored for Hajj in Mecca compared to the 'millions' they've sponsored to Jerusalem for Christian pilgrimage? States like Enugu, Anambra, Akwa-Ibom, Cross-River, Rivers, Abia, Imo, Delta, Edo, Ebonyi, etc? This is the religious intolerance and hypocrisy we talk about!

Bauchi is predominantly Muslim and the fact that the Muslim Governor sponsored 99.99% of the Christian pilgrims (417 of 418) is commendable, especially when we judge with Nigeria's peculiar religious setting and sentiments of 'my people alone'.

Ask Gov. Orji or Gov. Obiano to sponsor only 100 Muslims from Abia state or Anambra state (in spite of so many Hausa Muslims in Aba or Onitsha, some of whom have been living there since 1910 and rarely visit the North) and see whether any of the two Governors would sponsor just 50! Good things are good and bad things are bad! No sentiments...

Anyway, I don't support any state government sponsoring citizens on pilgrimage, whether Christian or Muslim, but when a positive thing is done, one should say it objectively! And it is not even a political thing (Yuguda is a PDP Governor).
