ahmedio2017: Lolzzzzzzzz are you cleared now? Ignorance is a big tools affecting us in this part of the world, imagine something that has nothing to do with you o, ILORIN is a case study, it is a Yoruba land, there is Muslims and Christians there and infact traditionalist are there too everyone is living independently and there is Sharia court. What do you mean that it has nothing to do with me. Does Sharia not affect businesses and lives of Christians and idol worshippers in Kaduna, Kano etc where Sharia is practiced. It has a lot to do with us judging from you Muslims modus operandi in States that it is being practiced. That is exactly what you want to replicate in the South West and it will not be accepted. That attempt to decieve us into accepting Sharia in the South West can't work. Ilorin that you used as a case study is not a conducive place for every non Muslims, you have turned the place to an Islamic State so much that they attacked some idol worshippers when doing procession last year because they opined that Kwara is a Muslim state. |

ahmedio2017: Sharia law in Nigeria is legal under the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, particularly in the northern states that have adopted it. The key constitutional sections that allow for the implementation of Sharia law include:
1. Section 6(5)(k) – Establishment of Sharia Courts
This section recognizes the existence of Sharia Courts of Appeal at both the state and federal levels, allowing them to adjudicate matters of Islamic personal law.
2. Section 38 – Freedom of Religion
This section guarantees Nigerians the right to practice and manifest their religion, including following Islamic law if they choose to.
This has been used to justify the implementation of Sharia in states where the majority of people are Muslims.
3. Section 275 – Creation of a State Sharia Court of Appeal
This section allows any state with a Muslim majority to establish a Sharia Court of Appeal to handle civil matters involving Islamic personal law (e.g., marriage, inheritance, and family disputes).
4. Section 277 – Jurisdiction of the Sharia Court of Appeal
Defines the limits of Sharia law, restricting it to personal matters involving Muslims (such as marriage, inheritance, waqf, and guardianship).
Criminal matters under Sharia law are controversial because the Nigerian Constitution already defines a common legal framework under secular law. Okay, does the Sharia law supersedes the civil and statutory laws. I think it may be in the penal codes hence it is not operational across the country except in the North. I also think that the Sharia courts are in the class of the customary court and perhaps a Sharia appeal court, any case decided in that court can be appealed to a Federal high court, an then to Federal Court of Appeal..... I am not a lwyer, but I think so |

ahmedio2017: Don't get it wrong, Sharia law will be for Muslims and Sharia court will also be for the Muslims, there won't be any form of generalization. Look at ilorin for instance there is Sharia court in ilorin so is Christianity affected in any form in ilorin? Is traditional worshipers affected in ilorin? Everyone will be doing there things according to their religion teachings. I believe you understand better now? Is Sharia legal in Nigeria? Is it constitutional? Why do you want Sharia in a state that already has legal system? In a state that is cosmopolitan and has vast number of Christians and Moslems. Ilorin - Kwara is predominantly a Moslem state. That is why Sharia, which is illegal, is operational there. There is no state in the South West that is predominantly Moslem state so operating Sharia there will create conflict. If Sharia is tolerated in South West, you will now want to have Hisbah or a Sharia enforcement agency about that will now be terrorizing everyone the various neighborhood. If anyone in the South West prefers a state where Sharia is operational, they can relocate to those states in the North. |

Xisnin: Most of the aids are neither money nor received into government account. Thank you for this observation. The truth is that the aid was not given to FG or State governments. They were not given as money. They were rather paid to US organizations to subsidize the prices of some medical items, drugs and others for use in Nigeria and Africa. So, you guys thinking some government people chop the money is not realistic. Na private hospital and healthcare givers you fit suspect to have collected the subsidized items and still sell expensively ot sell the "Not For Sale" Items |

3ice9ce: Do you know that if Sharia is allowed in the SW, it means the Sultan will be making laws for Yorubas.
Can the Ooni make laws for traditional worshippers in the North? That Sharia was even allowed in Nigeria in the first place was an aberration. It was excused by the government of Obasanjo maybe because the states that wanted it are predominantly Moslem States and they were spoiling for war with the Southwestern driven government. Did you hear any clamor for Sharia in the South during Buhari's time? No! Then you should understand that this move is politically motivated to destabilize the country or make government uncomfortable. For me, the Sultan needs to thread cautiously with their intentions. It is not a popular demand in the South West even by the Moslems in South West. |

Aawizdom: The events of Hijab and Shariah arbitration have exposed the level of intolerance of Yoruba Christians to their Muslim folks. When you objectively analyse the events, it's a pure hatred mix with sheer ignorance shown by Southern Christian. How do you mean? You mean Christians and Idol worshippers don't allow students and staff in Islamic schools to wear hijab or preach islam or operate the ethics of islam? Sharia arbitration is not recognized under the law in Nigeria and most definitely not recognized in the South West. It is illegal, try to constitute on Sharia thrash and watch the government deal with you. |

The Sultan of Sokoto and the Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs is part of the plot. That plot will fail. Sharia is unwanted in the Southwest. There are courts in the southWest that can handle civil and criminal offences hence there is no place for the primitive Sharia rules and punishment.
Any body in the Southwest that is not comfortable can go to the North where Sharia is practiced to stay and reside. |

Read https://presidentialtransition.org/appointee-resources/ready-to-serve-prospective-appointees/frequently-asked-questions-about-the-political-appointment-process/What types of political appointments are available in an administration? Answers are below. I have provided you a lot of resource materials for research and study to make an informed decision on the argument but you you are stuck with your skewed opinion. Ojuntana: You are writing rubbish bro
Is there any appointment made with regard to political affiliation? Even the AG is expected to be made without regard to political affiliation. What that means is that it is not required that the appointee be a member of a political party or movement before he can be appointed.
It is obvious you misconstrue political appointment to mean an appointment based on political affiliation? No sir. Political appointment simply means an appointment made by a political office holder.
Below is the official definition of a political appointee according to the US government: According to the United States Office of Government Ethics, a political appointee is "any employee who is appointed by the President, the Vice President, or agency head".
Now check and see if the IG's office falls into that category or not Read this as well: PAS positions (approximately 1,200 positions): Presidential appointments requiring Senate confirmation. These are the top-level senior positions: Cabinet secretaries, agency heads, deputy secretaries, undersecretaries and assistant secretaries. U.S. marshals and members of certain boards and commissions also require Senate confirmation. NC-SES positions (approximately 750 positions): The Noncareer Senior Executive Service includes positions classified above the GS-15 level. These positions are just below the top presidential appointees, linking the top officials to the rest of the workforce. PA positions (approximately 450 positions): Presidential appointments that do not require Senate confirmation. These are senior-level positions, including jobs within the Executive Office of the President such as senior White House aides and advisors. Schedule C positions (approximately 1,550 positions): Schedule C positions comprise the largest number of political positions. Schedule C refers to the statutory authority for the appointment. Most of these positions are confidential or policy-determining roles at the GS-15 level and lower. |

I earlier explained political appointment so it is not my fault that you don't read and I don't want to repeat myself on it. You keep referring to your AGF, the entire ministers, head of parastatal appointments are often political appointments except for some professional agencies. Do you see Comptrollers of agencies appointment go to persons that were never in the career? Only Buhari tried that with Nigeria Customs and it was questioned by ignored but that does not change the fact that it was not proper and that was also why the National Assembly refused to approve the man's appointment. Do you remember? Did you visit the website that I posted and read the questions and answers? It is not my website, it is USA government website. |

MadamExcellency: Why was James Comey not reinstated? The precedence isn't there and as such what she should advocate is her settlement not disregarding presidential order. She may not be reinstated but the illegality of her removal can be decided in court, she can get Justice and compensation. If she gets Justice, this will also serve as a deterrent to Donald Trump and successive presidents of USA going forward. |

Ojuntana: Your position is wrong. The position of Inspector General in the US is a political appointment not a career appointment. There's nothing in the 1978 laws establishing it that says they must be career civil servants. Go and do your research and stop painting your bias as facts.
The Nigerian system is modelled after the US system and the US has only one AG who is also a political appointee. What exactly is the job of the Minister of Justice different from the Attorney General of the Federation? It is neither here nor there and splitting the offices will ultimately lead to conflict. Besides, if split, will the AGF still be a cabinet position or it will become autonomous? If so, how then will he be able to represent the interests of the government in court when he's not on the cabinet? Nigerians don't read to comprehend. Anyway, let's see if you would read and comprehend this: Visit https://www.ignet.gov/content/frequently-asked-questions#:~:text=IGs%20are%20appointed%20without%20regard,management%20analysis%2C%20public%20administration%3B%20or Read frequently asked questions and answers there and then you can come back to this argument. Again, I say: IGs are appointed without regard to their political affiliation. The appointment is based on integrity and ability in: accounting, auditing, financial analysis; law, management analysis, public administration...... Inspector General's appointment are not political appointment; they are career appointment even when done by the president. There are laws that protects, guides their appointment and removal. |
