He has stopped virtually all the Muslims in his cabinet. Nigeria is in trouble.

Another junks from the Biblos!
The God that I serve is a God of all ages.

kane45: Nigeria is a circular state and therefore, no sector of d economy was supposed to be islamised.

Circular State? Its shows how you have been drinking poopoo. Poor you.

liloelawwal: hope dis move wont suffer criticism and bombardment d way islamic bank sufferd in Nigeria?

I knew for a long time now, we have an institution named Islamic Bank of Britain (IBB) and now this new development, so why are the non muslims Nigeria standing against introduction of Islamic banking system.

A system where it will be compulsory for the female workers to dress decently unlike the current system we have. A system where a muslim lady can get employed without being intimidated to remove the hijab while in office and a system that will be free from interest based transactions.

Now I understand no one can block the light of Islam, not even the Oritsetjafor and the sheep!

Prime Minister David Cameron has announced that the UK will become the first non-Muslim country to issue an Islamic bond.

At the World Islamic Economic Forum (WIEF) in London, he also announced plans for a new Islamic index on the London Stock Exchange.

It is intended to attract more Islamic investors by making it clearer which companies match their criteria.

Under Islamic rules, no interest on business dealings can be charged.

Transactions must also be based on a real trade or business activities and they must not involve anything forbidden under Sharia law, such as gambling or alcohol.

Mr Cameron believes that Islamic finance is a good opportunity for the UK's financial services industry as Islamic investments have soared by 150% in the past seven years and are expected to be worth £1.3 trillion next year.


"I don't just want London to be a great capital of Islamic finance in the Western world, I want London to stand alongside Dubai as one of the great capitals of Islamic finance anywhere in the world," he told delegates of the WIEF.

"There are some countries which naturally look inwards, pull up the drawbridge and refuse to recognise that the way the world is changing affects their future success. But Britain will not make that mistake," he added.

The Treasury hopes to launch an Islamic bond - called a sukuk - worth £200m as early as next year. It will be structured to bring in a fixed return from a tangible asset or service, and without charging interest, in accordance with Islamic financial principles.

For God so love the heaven. Lol. Rubbish books.

This is a lifestyle of average Christians.
They will always tell you faith is in the heart.

Who is Jonathan? I think he is the one that was called bully recently. Ok, I don get am.

The bitter truth is that, the whole idea about about Jesus coming to redeem us because of the faith in the crucifixion (cruci-fiction), is a HOAX.

cinammon: Lol, r u sure the people who fought to kill the bill are my soo called brothers and sisters? Lolz..gayism is nt even a religious issue cos we hav as many Muslims as there r so called Christians practising that..
Like I said, we are all entitled to our opinions and if u think it is right in this 21st century with all d socalled civilisation nd societal dangers to give out ur blood @ infancy for marriage, then go ahead and do it. The fact dt u bliv in it does nt mean I cnt resist it. My bible doesn't tell me that Mary the Mother of Jesus was a childbride so if ur holy book tells u that, fine accept it (we will all give accounts someday after all).its just the way u will neva accept wat The bible says abt ur religion..if u have chosen a faith, abide by it but don't force it down people's throat simply because u wnt superiority...
And then abt extra marital affairs, is it only ''my brothers'' that r involvedlolz, it's a general thing so dnt even bring that up @all. U ur self, can u swear by what u bliv that u r Holier U r nt without sin so stop casting stones..
If u bliv in child marriage, fine practise it. Wot we r saying is don't force us to live by it simply because u r cool with it..so please teniyi get my points nd stop sounding pained.its a free world, live by what ever principles that guide u. It dosnt always hav to end in violence, anger or hate. If ur religion preaches peach, practise it. We don't have to b @ each other's throat because we hav different blivs (pls pass d msg 2 ur sista Maimunat).

How sweet will it be if you truly can understand me and you truly want me to understand it. if this is your true intention, why then did you responded first by saying the writer is a pained islamist?

This is the habit of you people, if the bible say it, its ok and if we can not practice it, we put it aside, this is not what muslim does.
There is a rule and we don't put it aside like you do.

Now look at the issue of marriage, I meet Christians everywhere in Nigeria and one major thing they like to ask me is polygamy in Islam, meanwhile, the islam provision does not say its compulsory and so many people includes the Christian majority zone like the Eastern Nigeria (I lived there before) practice polygamy. Come to Yorubaland too (Not Lagos) and see if the Christian practice polygamy or not. This was also a point held so serious by one of your fallen Leader in America (Jimmy Swaggart) and at the end, he was caught with prostitutes over and over again.

Now coming to the issue, Islam marriage starts on maturity and not of age. This is where we stand. And how does this affect you to say you are going to protest and also includes Islam in your designs. The most painful thing is that most of these people making noise on these were even ignorant of what the issue is (I don't know if you are inclusive), all we hear is child marriage. The fact is there is nothing like child marriage in Islam, but marriage and marriage.

cinammon: Just y will reasonable ppl think that the only way to curb prostitution and other ill spoken societal girl-child chaos is to marry them off 2 older men capable of being their fathers??
There by giving them liberty and rights 2b defiled @a tender age.
What happened to proper parental upbringing?? Y shud u father or mother a child u cannot train up 2b virtious nd decent??
Y r dis ppl not Tryin 2 make a better living for this less privileged ones so dey dnt hav to resolve to bizarre acts??
I'm in support of a better living condition, better parenting and better government..thats d solution to d menace, not child marriage.
I mean if u support child marriage, fine u r entitled 2 ur opinion, give them out 2 who ever, it has been happening nd it wnt stop 2day but pls don't come up here and start using prostitution or d likes as an excuse. A married gurl dosnt mean she ain't no LovePeddler..
Instead thinkin of hw marryin a little girl off cuts ha off achieving great potentials, cutting ha off ha destiny, u r here usin mere prostitution as excuse...*hiss* I dnt see a little gurl becomin great Afta she hasbeen married off nd starts makin babies b4 she evn knws wot it is 2b an adult, she ends up becomin wateva the 'old man, makes of her..
No man will marry a 13yr old as a 1st wife because she simply hasn't grown into a woman nd cannot manage a home nd take decisions in d home front, so she bcoms the 2nd,3rd or wat Eva number nd since she's so little nd innocent nd cn barely cater for herself, all she does in a Man's house is satisfy his lustful pleasures....I weep..
But like I said, evrybody is entitled 2 their opinions, nd this here is mine so pls don't quote me 2 iinsult me just because I dnt accept ur viewsn its a free world...

I understood that your so called creator, lord and savior's mother was born by the same 13 year old girl. Oh my God.

How many can we count of your so called brotheren who are fully engaged in extra marital affair, you are not saying anything about that.
During the debate on Same sex marriage, the people that fight to kill the bill are YOUR brothers and sisters, people who has the same believe with you are the same people who are crying the child marriage thing.

tm-tech:
How many ladies av u laid wit....oooooh I forgot..in ur own belief, its only a lady dat can't sleep around...in my area, dis alfa guys sleep around without remorse, yet they castigate there ladies wen dey do same.....I cant blame u....according to islam, "a WOMan is inferior to a man"

According to Islam? What of the Bible and Christianism? Nonsence!

She is not even a credible person see here https://www.nairaland.com/395887/stella-damasus-cheater

cinammon: *sighs* Another Pained islamist.

Please just carry your frustration and stay by the side first.

Let me begin by saying the “child” marriage debate can only make people famous, it can only be used to stay famous, it can only revive careers of actresses who are smart enough to hurriedly make a youtube video when the heat is on, but it will continue to happen and not even the removal of the controversial supportive clauses or the inclusion of a new prohibiting one will stop it. This is the fact; plain simple, in one paragraph.

I have watched the drama playing out and how Stella Damasus has tried so hard to be the lead actor. From a youtube video with costumes and the rants of a little girl to an Aljazeera performance where she frowns while other guests speak, I have observed the Stella lady and I think she needs the following advice:

Firstly, arrogance, insults and name calling does not make you right. You are right when you are right you are wrong when you are wrong. For example you referred to the Islamic position on marriage age as “deafening, old and archaic”. Earlier in an article of yours you praised the Islamic mood of worship and the simplicity of it as well as narrated a story of how a wealthy Muslim came down from his car to join a gate man in his estate in prayer in your presence….well, the provision of Islam which made this possible is also old and we thank God it is not archaic in the sense of being abandoned for being old. And the same way you hate our provision for marriage at any age, the pagan Arabs hated the prayers you so praised.

Still on mistaking arrogance and bad behaviour for correctness, I also heard you imply that Muslims “poach” and Christians don’t. According to your claim, the Nigerian law recognizes Islam but also recognizes Christianity but Christians don’t “poach” by asking that the position of the Christian religion be part of Nigerian law. Again you are not right because you said it with much emphasis and a frowned face. This is Nigeria in which it’s Government has a public Holiday two times a week because Christians, with all due respect, could not agree on which day is Sabbath; Saturday or Sunday. This is Nigeria in which the whole period around Christmas is public holiday and you don’t “poach”? Of course you don’t, but we do just because we are saying don’t forbid US from marrying OURSELVES when WE want to and because we say the fact that you compromise your rights to follow your Bible to the Nigerian constitution does not mean we must do the same, more so when the constitution does not require that of us. We poach, we are poachers, don’t mind us!

Secondly, I advise that you, Stella, know your facts especially if you intend saying them on international television. The Child Right Act is the result of a Convention which can only be applied if it goes in line with the Constitution, so if the constitution suggested that a woman of 17 can get married and you say the Child Right Act prohibits such, then you are saying the Child Right Act is unconstitutional and should be thrown away. This is a classic case of not knowing what you are talking about and hence speaking against what you intend to speak for. Now you know why Abraham Lincoln said "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt"

Another blunder you committed because you thought exclamations can cover for points is that you claimed to have discovered hospitals where women with VVF die off. Stella, Stella, VVF is not even lethal, it does not kill. This is as ridiculous as saying you have discovered hospitals where people with Eczema are left to die. Studies, which you will not read because you are too busy taking pictures and twitting, have shown that of 100,000 births 0.4% have the challenge of VVF which is mainly a result of prolong child labour and rape. Let me show you what Dr. John Spurlock, MD Medical Director and Founder of the Continence Management Institute of the Lehigh Valley and 9 other specialists wrote about the cause of VVF and I sure this will be the first time you are reading of a disease you always speak about:

“Risk factors that predispose to VVFs include prior pelvic or vaginal surgery, previous PID, ischemia, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, carcinoma, endometriosis, anatomic distortion by uterine myomas, and infection, particularly postoperative cuff abscess”

You see my dear, one does not have to be super intelligent to speak if only he will be intelligent enough to know he has to speak only of what he knows.

My third and final advice for Stella Damasus is that it is important to follow the argument of the other side if you must engage in a debate. No one standing with Yerima is saying Nigeria is an Islamic state, no one is saying there should be sexual exploitation of children rather that which has been said is that Nigeria being a multi religious state as you claim has said it will not disturb your practice of your religion; marriage is part of religion as far as Muslims and Islam is concerned; as a matter of fact the Prophet of Islam says it is HALF of religion for the Muslims, Nigeria has said it won’t disturb, let it not disturb. It has also been said that in Islam and for Muslims when you marry is not necessarily when you have sex so marriage is anytime, sex is during maturity so where is the exploitation? If you are concerned about how we ensure this then take a breathe and ask us we will answer you.

We do hope to see women like Stella who will get all angry and vocal over the fact that women are in the market places in Nigeria selling pepper under the scourging sun with one baby on her back and two others running around at the risk of being run down by a car. We do hope to see women who will address the problem of prostitution which leaves a young girl sleeping with 10 men a night, 60-70 a week, 280 men every month and 3,360 men a year at the risk of STDs, losing her womb, permanent frigidity, HIV, and rape….but then a non-fatal disease which only occurs in less than 0.4% of child delivery and is curable is more of an issue. What an Olympic sport in hypocrisy

Can you imagine? This is what we hear, many of such cases are going on underground.

This the type of slum these "Cele" people love to establish their churches.

Gboliwe: You should stay behind after service. You need councelling and maybe, deliverance

Gribimbo lalapopo kijekije grabbins(speaking in tongue).
I already delivered all d evil spirits in you. The spirit that always make you to follow all underage girls in church. I destroy them all!

What are the facilities the church has? Ladies for free, miracles, good orators and free job and spouse offers. If this are not present, na true say you go wait taya!

She represents the Igbo nation and the Nigerian Christians!

Its unfortunate that some of these people who always say I don't want to go to the North are now being attached in Bayelsa, kidnapped in Port Harcourt, accident in Calabar or being drawn in Ondo.
The truth is there is Death everywhere!

The same lie but different presentations. Rubbish

Evil Brain: These pastors need to travel to Vatican city, Rome to go and learn from the best.

They need to learn better ways to:
1. Molest children without being caught.
2. Cover up cases of child molestation whenever they are detected.
3. Settle victims and bribe their families to avoid lawsuits.
4. Move child molesting MOGs to a new areas as soon as people start suspecting them, thus prolonging their child molestation careers.
5. Protect their leaders from the long arm of the law.

The experts in Vatican city are the worldwide leaders in child molestation obfuscation. They can help stop all these embarrassing stories from showing up on Nairaland.

OMG, this is at international level!
I can also recall the case of Jimmy Swarggart and Jimmy Baker all in America.

frosbel: and also a large number of Mosques, yet so corrupt.

Can you support your claim that Nigeria has the highest number of mosque? Have you been to Morroco and Eqypt?

JudismphD: These bokoharamic disciples can continue to waste tax payers money and their allocation flying around the country aimlessly that does not change anything. Jonathan all the wayyyyyyyy

Its a PDP affair but never again will GEJ retain the presidency, what has he done than the fuel price pump price increase? And the wife brewing trouble in the River State?

We knew the people that misrepresented. Their "Men of God" sleep with little children everyday while their leaders support gay right and homosexual saying - who is me to judge?
The Kriyos!
