There are reports that the Angolan government has reportedly banned Islam in the central African country. If this is true, then Angola has become the first country in the world to ban the practice of Islam in its territory.
The Guardian reports that on November 22, the Angolan Minister of Culture Rosa Cruz e Silva said that 'the process of legalization of Islam has not been approved by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights and so their mosques would be closed until further notice.'
On November 24, Angola President José Eduardo dos Santos said that the country is working towards putting an end to Islamic influence in Angola once and for all while the Governor of Luanda, Bento Bento, said that 'radical Muslims' are not welcome in the country and that the Angolan government will not be legalizing mosques or other places of worship for Muslims.
I do know there are some Islamic countries where the practice of other religious beliefs are not tolerated, but if you ask me, I don't think this action by the Angolan government is a 'right step in the right direction'. Next thing, Al Shabaab and other Islamic terrorist groups will infiltrate Angola and raise hell. If this is the Angolan government's way of fighting/curbing terrorism, I don't think they got it right.
I hope I did not offend anyone: I tried to make this post as 'peaceful' as possible. I don't want to be the cause of a cyber jihad. Good morning Nairalanders.
