Why did you think that Islam can penetrate Igboland, it is like using basket to hold water, if Islam have not taken over Southern Kaduna, Benue, Taraba, Plateau that is near to core muslims, is it a far away traditional christian enclave that islam will penetrate.
Use your brain, not today that some few Igbos started converting to Islam, in Israel they have Jews that are muslims.
All your state governors take loans from Islamic banks.
So why are you guys unhappy having muslims among you

But you claim Jewish culture yet you ain't Jews.

My point is.. why discourage other igbos from practicing what they like. You guys attach a kind of stigma to the muslims among you and it's bad.
Igbo community is predominantly christians, Islam is allien in Igboland.An Igbo man is not suppose to be a muslim, it is an abomination on the part of that man.

That's a primitive mindset and quite archaic for my liking.
You call islam abomination but the igbos can live in core muslim states and earn a living there?

Islam is unknown religion in Igboland just like Hindu, Budha or Shintoist.
The community will not accept any place of worship for such in Igboland, places of worship of these religions can only be found in townships not in rural community.

But there are mosques in Aba, Owerri, Abakaliki, Nnewi etc.

An igbo muslim has every right to practice his/her religion just like you.
This is 21st century, wake up

That is a business, buying and selling to survive life and is different from religion. There are millions of Igbos in the north but they cannot convert to Islam accept few.
I was born in Maiduguri and went to islamic school, i can recite koran in Arabic but as an Igbo man christianity is on our blood. Few Igbos that converted to Islam their children will later convert back to christianity because it in the blood. An Igbo man is not meant to be a muslim by nature.
Islam is for the decendant of Ismael while Christianity is for the decendant of Jacob.Igbos are not from Ismael.

That is what I said that mosque can only be found in big townships where businesses take place but not in rural communities.
Rural communities(towns and villages) will not allow a mosque to be erected in their community, it wouldnt be okay hearing the sound of Allahu Akbar early in the morning, that will be crazy thing.

Igbos tend to freak out when they hear islam but are cool with Okija, amadioha etc.

There must be a reason for that
They are not into terrorism wink

What is jewish culture? we are in the internet age

In the world arabs are doing follow follow of europeans . Asians are not following either or maybe following europeans but overtaking them but definetly not following arabs.

You become who you imitate eventually.

I would rather africans to be non religious than follow arab culture or pray to God directly but not kneeling and bowing to kabba everyday.


Its stupid to follow arab culture which is a culture of violence, women suppression, peodophila

It's no news that igbos have entered into various alliances with core Muslim North since independence.
Is it fake love they have for muslim North or what exactly cos I'm not understanding again.

Today they cry islamization agenda, tomorrow it's Atiku 2019, some say El rufai and other gibberish like that.
Igbos need development, good economy only to hell with religion fanatic. Religion should be a personal matter..

Don't mind him. Igbos and Islam simply don't match, hence our reluctance to join the religion. If you can say that there are more Igbos who practice Judaism- a religion that is not really evangelical and doesn't have many converts globally- than Islam then that should tell you a lot about the people's feelings towards Islam undecided.

I would go as far as to say, Igbo dont have muslims, simply becos most of these so called Igbo muslim are traders in Kano trying to survive.


Igbos will never accept islam to settle amongst them, so stop dreaming op. bloody afonja!

This may be the case. In any case, if Biafra were to be actualised then I'd petition the government to ban the building of mosques and other Islamic buildings. A lot of these so called Igbo Muslims have sold their souls for money and would likely be used as spies against the rest of us.

It means they welcome money in Igboland. I don't really care what these governors do anyway, they do not speak for the people.

Islam and Igbo culture do not mesh well at all.

Trying to force ur misfortune on Ndiigbo will not help u Yorubas.

Our communities are wat they are and are far too organised and informed for such dull nonentities and nomad to be able to force any ideology that is alien on dem.

It will be far more easier for Yoruba Christians to join their muslim brothers than for u to gain an inch of Igboland into ur slave religion.

I really fear for Yoruba Christians. If this is what their Muslim brethren are planning to do to Igbos then imagine what they're planning for them. God help them.
