If he was misunderstood then it was his fault because he used a blanket term "religious" which also includes Christianity. He should have stated clearly that the only islamic organization permitted to operate within the uni is MSN. I also find it hard to believe that there has been no request for a Christian association on campus, maybe its because they don't accept Christians to begin with....

Did you heat any killing

Did you see hatred thriving among us on religion?

I told you let it reign in your land

We say NO to religious intolerance

If you are not killing yourselves, why are yoruba muslims always caught with fresh human heads in yorubaland? What is the source of unending human heads you are always carrying about?

And so what, check Nuhu bamali poly technic zaria in dere annex campuse up till now no any structure call church dere

All the bigots and divisive characters who have been shouting islamisation over a policy that has nothing to do with Christian should come here and read the true position of things. We should all endeavor to understand a policy before reading bigoted ethnic and religious sentiments into everything. We all gain nothing by dishonestly creating ethnic and religious division all over the country.

With the way you talk, you must be part of those doing MMM, you sound so gullible.

This is the power of the internet. If this had not been vehemently opposed on the initial thread, they wouldn't have proceeded to debunk it.

Why Didn't The Memo Explain That Only One Muslim Body Is Allowed In The University Rather Than Outlawing All Other Associations?

sarrki:
Are you from katsina?

Please be sincere can you allow a msssn in NnamdI
Azikwe university?

Let's stop all this religious bigotry

Christian or Muslim is not the key thing

The main thing is are you good as human ?

I am almost certain that the MSSN exists in Nnamdi Azikiwe university and hope a student or alumni can confirm that.
It is just the same way that you have mosques in western countries but no church allowed in Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries.
Intolerance?

Dezzx:
so u have swallowed this bare face lie, hook line and sinker?

he should swallow yours because you are right or just decided to be stewpi.d and mis informed..i hate bigots

The more reason we should not keep quiet,the more we keep quiet, the more they will think they own Nigeria.

Nigeria is a secular state,no religion is superior to the other but let's go our separate ways,Nigeria is not one.

The thing is all those shouting Yoruba Muslims are on Yoruba lands . If you iPods are religious bigots, we Yoruba's are not. Keep that on your side

Religion of intolerance.

I'm telling you. that's why northern Muslims call them pagans

Dr. Kankara (ice) your memo still doesn't make sense, you should have specified so as to avoid any misconceptions.

Divide this country and let's be at peace

That memo has hidden intent. When you make memos like this in a multi-religious and cultural setting, you provide for the other options should in case the issue arises. Don't come here to cajole yourself of radicalism. The actions and the mindset of the author of this piece is a pernacea or recipe to radicalism of all manner. Send it's the country home of the incumbent so that his state will not be an exception to the ongoing northern mindset and plans. Go ask yourself how are Moslems and Christaains coping in southern Nigeria without all manners of radiscalistic memos flying up and down.

Thanks. You can look up my previous comments on MMM though.

You don't have to love Christian in anyway. The end is near for you. Donald Trump is your nightmare

Accepted,the memo was not targeted at non muslims,common sense demands that the memo should be withdrawn and rephrase.
One would wonder how a citadel of learning can not issue out memos that will be understandable to all and devoid of controversy.
An apology letter should follow the new memo for having indirectly abused the sensibility of christian and non muslim students.
The new memo should read ' MSSN is the only acceptable muslim religious association on campus while people of other faiths are allowed to register there associations as stipulated by the law'.

One thing I hate about islamic religion is their self-centered nature, all of them

put them in a media place, they will turn it to muslim only

put them in a workplace, they'll make sure it's all about muslims

Even here on Nairaland, you can't comment on their threads or any neutral topic involving muslims.. but they will run around all other threads feely as they like

look at Saudi, Iran and co.. they don't allow Christianity but will want to go and practice islam freely in other Christian dominated countries

They share similar traits with Black jews somewhere across the Niger in Nigeria

Exactly. Nigeria is not an Islamic country and no attempt should be made to turn it into one.

That's not what the memo says!

Why must such a memo target a particular religious group in a circular state like Nigeria?

Please check out my signature for quality and durable furniture

seunmsg:
The authorities of the Umaru Yar’Ádua University, Katsina, have denied discriminating against Christian students in the approval granted a students religious association to operate on its campus.
The Acting Dean of Student Affairs of the University, Sulaiman Kankara, had in January 17 memo informed students of a new guideline for the registration of clubs and associations in the institution.
In the circular, Dr. Kankara indicated that participation in clubs and associations, including departmental ones, were strictly optional and that no student should be compelled to pay dues.
He also outlawed the formation of tribal and local government associations in the university.
But the controversial part of the memo which made the document to go viral was the dean’s pronouncement that the “Muslim Students Society of Nigeria (MSSN) is the only religious association allowed to operate on campus.”
After the memo was shared on social media, the university came under ferocious attacks from many Nigerians, with some commentators saying the guideline was part of government’s plot to Islamise Nigeria.
But when contacted on Sunday morning, Dr. Kankara said that aspect of the guideline was actually targeted at Islamic groups which were beginning to mushroom on campus, creating division among students of the same faith.
The dean said, “Actually there is one misconception in the memo. But the fact of the matter is that in Umaru Yar’Ádua University, there is no association known as Christian Students Association.


“There is one religious association and subsidiary Islamic students associations like the Tijjanniya Students Movement in Nigeria, Academic Forum of Islamic Movement in Nigeria and many associations like that.
“They are Islamic students association. So what we want is to have a single union which will be the mouthpiece of muslim students and that is the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria.
“It has nothing to do with any Christian group because up till now, I have not received any application requesting registration of Christian Students Society.
“And once they do that, we are ready to register them. Even as at last week, we said the two religious group to be recognised by the university will be the Muslim one and one from Christian side.
“Up till now we are to receive any application for the registration of any Christian association in the university from any group.”

Until I hear that there is a Christian association before I will belief.
How is it possible that no Christian fellowship is on any campus

That is why Americans women are protesting against promised erosion of their acquired rights by Trump while Nigerians, who enjoy the benefits of the protests, are ridiculing them on the two threads below.

As if all Nigerians are illiterate Almajaris who do not understand the difference between the English expression "only RELIGIOUS association" and only muslim association.

Silly animals.

But it mentioned Christians abi? Why are some people so stupidly in love with division?

nwabobo:


This is clearly a face saving lie which won't fly.

The memo clearly stated that "MSSN is the only religious association allowed on campus". Nowhere did it state that MSSN is the only Muslim religious association allowed on campus.

Liars!

Why didn't they say put it that the Muslim association was the only Islamic Religious association on the campus instead of saying it is the only Religious association?

They also can't say Christians wouldn't have fellowships in a school like that, it isn't possible. Bloody liars.

The memo was addressed to ALL STUDENTS, and it stated that ONLY RELIGIOUS association, so what is this man saying.
