Given the high birth rate in the North, and the significant number of Muslims amongst the Yorubas and the Middle beltans, it's safe to say that there are more muslims in Nigeria than any other religion. 3 Likes |

dustmalik:If OBJ attend he is attending on behalf of Nigeria, If he send somebody to represent him/Nigeria that means he/Nigeria attended. He does not need to be present to be there. |

dustmalik:Please stop arguing with me on subject you know nothing about. “Unfortunately, during the last meeting of G-8 Islamic countries in Egypt in 2001, Obasanjo identified himself carrying Nigeria as an Islamic country by attending that meeting. By that, he proved Nigeria is an Islamic country. An Islamic country does not tolerate another religion and such countries are ruled by Muslims.” www.punchng.com/news/withdraw-nigerias-membership-of-oic-to-curtail-violence/ You can also read this article www.gamji.com/article5000/NEWS5267.htm 4 Likes |

dustmalik:That simply shows that Osinbajo knows NOTHING about Nigeria... “Unfortunately, during the last meeting of G-8 Islamic countries in Egypt in 2001, Obasanjo identified himself carrying Nigeria as an Islamic country by attending that meeting. By that, he proved Nigeria is an Islamic country. An Islamic country does not tolerate another religion and such countries are ruled by Muslims.”www.punchng.com/news/withdraw-nigerias-membership-of-oic-to-curtail-violence/ "Since then no president or head of state has revisited the OIC imbroglio, that is, until when Chief Obasanjo came! During much of his first term in office he kept Nigerians wondering what the attitude of his government was to OIC. Unknown to Christian and the stakeholders President Obasanjo had secretly re-registered Nigeria in OIC. Mallam Kabiru Yusuf of Weekly Trust, writing on “Nigeria in OIC” has revealed, “Ironically, Nigeria has become more active in the OIC since this government, led by a born- again Christian, came to power." www.gamji.com/article5000/NEWS5267.htm 3 Likes |
