Afam4eva: I used to think like the professor but not anymore. I don't think the problem is Religion but poverty and illiteracy. Poor and illiterate people always use something as a guise to keep themselves at their comfort zone. Afam, if you have lived in the North you would've known religion is the main problem in the North. That is the very reason for their poverty. Their leaders enjoy and feed off it. 5 Likes |

You cant eat your cake and have it, northerners has made wrestling power back from SS/SW/SE in 2015 their top priority at the expense of well-being of their people. The elites chose to pump hundreds of millions into sponsoring terrorist groups instead of putting such money into developing the states, its sickening and disheartening. 2 Likes |

malc619: The foolish Prof blames Islam for the backwardness of the North, then I wonder if he'll blame Christianity for the under-development and large scale poverty and illiteracy in Bayelsa state... No, he is not, rather He still blame thesame Islam and North for the backwardness of Bayelsa. Have you heard of Petroleum Bill? It's still been block, withhold, unapproved by thesame North. Do know the North sees the Bayelsans as their conquered slaves? Do you know the North took over the wealth of the Bayelsans? My guy, the same North that caused North to be backward is thesame North that caused Bayelsa to be backward... 3 Likes |

You are being senile here, How can such Prof make a contribution when so called North won't accept it or listen? Do you know why the Petroleum Bill is yet to be passed? Will your North allow meaningful people to make meaningful contribution? Well, let me tell you, the Xtain are backward because of your called Islam North. Perhaps, you should know the Xtains are more or less a slaves who have no contribution in the Nigerian equation.

0lumide: East is not more develop than North, but I bet you if the East has at their disposal the kind of wealth, the North has, East would be heaven on Earth. The East has nothing in the Nigeria Equation, yet the East is not lacking behind in anything. The East lost "EVERYTHING" yet they managed to come back, and still challenge the Status quo. The South is not any better either, mind you the wealth of the South is in the hand of North, nothing to show for it. My guy, think and think again, can you imagine what they South would be when the wealth of the North and that of South in their hands...that's what the North had and has, yet nothing to show, but poverty. 7 Likes |

malc619: The foolish Prof blames Islam for the backwardness of the North, then I wonder if he'll blame Christianity for the under-development and large scale poverty and illiteracy in Bayelsa state... What are you thinking ? He never blamed Islam, he rather praised other Islamic Nations for their development as a proof that Islam is not against modernization. For instance in those Moslem nations he mentioned, have you heard of suicide bombers, terrorist upsurge or Boko Haram insurgence ? Bin Laden who is from Saudi Arabia was driven away from his country because of his radical beliefs. Yes, I expect you to talk about other states in Nigeria as not being better. But I must remind you that the violence in the North is the bane to civilization. 2 Likes |

North has the wealth of the Nation, and people has to go there to (perhaps, to eat from whatever the North might have left off) or simply to do business with them since they would still need some services. 3 Likes |

0lumide: He forgot to ask what brand of Christianity is being practiced in states like Ebonyi, Bayelsa, Cross er, Anambra, Imo, Aba that is not being practiced in USA, Venezuela, Norway, Sweden, Canada etc.. Though you have some valid points i think the Professor does too. You do not need to undermine his academic preference to study Linguistics especially when you segue into profanity to make your point made. The professor has not attacked Islam in fact he has shown how predominantly Islamic countries have chosen to adapt modernization with their beliefs whilst making their environment and indeed their people one to be envied. Of course, there is need for introspection from the non-Islamic states in Nigeria but there is the sense of accepting the likes of Boko Haram who claim to be the true practitioners of Islam in the Northern states. One would have thought the vastly educated and widely traveled elite would exert their influence to quell this brand of Islam which really only damages whatever exists of the North. It is their moral obligation to educate their people, rally them with positive messages and desensitize the impressionable youth by exemplary action. At present the south may not be the modern state one desires but there's relative calm compared to the incendiary one witnesses on the daily up North. Granted, the Southern leaders need to translate this relative calm to a fruitful and harmonious society, that was not the topic and we should learn to appreciate it for what it is. Concerning the professor's need to be away, I reckon every man has the right to stay anywhere he thrives, finds peace and makes a living. You may be privy to his personal life and maybe even his contract in Canada but i'm not. However, I choose to believe that not all warriors are at the battle-front. Some would need to be in the background, in diaspora, in captivity and sometimes even 6 feet deep. It doesn't change the fact that they contribute their own measure to winning the war. 6 Likes |

wesley80: Here lies the problem - Denial! Prof Adesanmi doesnt blame Islam, he blames the 'brand' of 'primitive and retrogressive' Islam being uembraced in Northern Nigeria. The brand of Islam that still encourages the al majiri system, discourages immunization because everything from the West should be seen as perverse and encourages smashing of bottles of beer in predominant Christian areas. That brand of Islam my friend is what the professor blames for the backwardness of the North especially when contrasted with your ultra Islamic contemporaries in Dubai, Saudi Arabia etc as referenced by the Professor. If you learn to think clearly and critically I'll bet you'd realize you're the foolish one here.U're a big dump foooooool,hu 2ld u islam is categorically classified into "brands"?u're d types d@ don't even bother 2 go 2 worship houses 2 learn ur religion.Please go back 2 skul nd 2 ur so called church 2 learn more.DRUNKARD!!! |

The problem with the northerners are nothing but that they are enslave to retrogressive Islam as the Prof said. Education can only do one thing in some life; making you think independently without been bias irrespective of race, religion, tribe and language. Norther Nigerian Islam still enslave the commoners by giving the wrong teaching. Until they agree to embrace education the story will still be the same. Prof is very right. 3 Likes |
