Your papa

Kgdavid:
i understand his point but what an insensible way of expressing himself.

He should simply have said:

"Nigeria is joining the coalition because of joint strategic interests but this alliance has no bearing on the sovreign identity of Nigeria".

As much as i supported this guy and still prefer him and APC to PDP, i knew he wasn't very clever from his inauguration day when Amanpour asked him about economic policies and all he could do was rant about corruption.

SMH.

excel101:
Stop those lies, cos they are in Libya for the libyans and not Nigeria. Its still not a reason to be part of the Islamic organisation.

excel101:
Stop running ur mouth anyhow. Has a Christian ever initiated a religious crisis in Nigeria b4, do you know the number of Christians that has been killed or number of churches razed as a result of these religious crisis(initiated by Muslims). The recent one being the fulani herdsmen brutality which is gradually coming to the south. You're just deceiving ursef cos u're an Islam, u think u we'll be deceived.

StOla:


How can one shut up at an interview?

abduljabbar4:
The stupeed bigots that were asking why Muslims haven't stood up to fight against terrorism are the ones now condemning this move. Didn't the boko Haram group emerge from Nigeria? So why shouldn't it join Islamic organizationg to fight against terrorism?

The opinions of some foolish and unlearned bastards cannot stop this important move. God bless our president

erico2k2:

Crap talk.so U mean no xtian are there fighting the troops?so the whole NA are made up of Muslim right? Plz stop that thing making you high. The number one citizen is not meant to put any one of his people down.

Shut up , he said what I would have said and I am an active Christian. So many people in the south have this strong opinion that intends to debase anyone north of the Niger and Muslims as inconsequential beasts, lacking in education and therefore should not be considered.

They are more concerned if they hear of a church bombed but never care about the more than 5 mosques bombed and Muslims killed.

Nigeria has an equal population of Christians and Muslims, we have provided support for western Christian based caolitions under NATO and done their bidding in Liberia, Sierra Leon and Somalia without anyone having a problem.

We are suffering from a serious dreg, individuals who have taken territory in the past and have allied with ISIS a global threath all under the false banner of Islamic idealisms, it is most appropriate that the central country for correct Islamic doctrine establishes a coalition of fellow Muslims who would crush these animals be it Boko Haram , ISIS, Al Queda in the magreb, Al shabab and Nigeria being a victim of these animals should be part of that.

The president is correct any Christians who have a problem with it should join the fight, so many times good Muslims have been told to address this matter and now they are doing just that.

kick:
He has finally played into the hands of isis. We should have fought it like it was just some kind of misunderstanding from the north. Now he has given Nigeria global attention for isis to strike. The country is Doomed because isis is more strategic. Any bomb throw to south-east, South-south, South-west then Nigeria will shelter like a piece of glass. This will result to tribal war.

ofedegbe:

How long has Alqaeda ISIS Taliban been fully operational
what has Saudi Arabia and the likes done to curb this menace all this while
so you mean joining countries that have been toothless in the fight against terrorism is the way?
why not align with the likes of Russia or Germany??

Sweetlemon:
Buhari said a very bitter truth.
Some Christians (Nigerian Christians) Can be so annoying I don't blame atheists sometimes.

The president is not speackiy of the great Nigerian Army, which is a tribe unto itself if heros and heroines from across the country.

He is speaking of the bloody civilians and wailers who never have anything good to say about the president and find fault in him being a Northern Muslim, those are the idiots that can stop shouting "he wants to islamise Nigeria", pick up a rifle and go to sambisa

sirklin:
President Muhammadu Buhari has confirmed Nigeria’s membership of the Islamic Coalition Against Terrorism being spearheaded by Saudi Arabia amidst speculations of alleged plan to Islamise the country.

The President made the disclosure in an interview he granted to Al-Jazeera during his recent visit to Doha, Qatar, while the interview was aired on Saturday.

When asked whether Nigeria was part of the Islamic coalition, Buhari answered in the affirmative.

He attributed the reason behind the decision to the fact that there are terrorists in Nigeria who claim to be Muslims.

“We are part of it (the Islamic coalition) because we’ve got terrorists in Nigeria that everybody knows which claim that they are Islamic.

“So, if there’s an Islamic coalition to fight terrorism, Nigeria will be part of it because we are casualties of Islamic terrorism,” the President said.

Buhari said he discussed Nigeria’s membership of the coalition with King Salman Bin Abdul-Aziz during their meeting in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia when he visited the country recently.

He however did not disclose how the membership of the Islamic coalition would be beneficial to Nigeria when asked to do so.

He said it would be wrong to disclose the details to the media.

“Well, that we mentioned under Lake Chad Basin Commission, our regional grouping compromising Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Nigeria and Benin and we dedicated a certain number of troops to be deployed in our own sub-region and I don’t think we have to tell the press the details of that,” he simply said.

Buhari however justified Nigeria’s membership of the Islamic coalition, saying there is nothing wrong in joining the coalition since members of the Boko Haram sect fighting in Nigeria have claimed they are Muslims even when their activities are anti-Islam.

He added that the Boko Haram itself had declared loyalty to ISIS

He said, “I’ve just told you it is the Boko Haram itself that declared loyalty to ISIS.

“ISIS is basically based in Islamic countries. Now, if there’s a coalition to fight Islamic terrorism, why can’t Nigeria be part of it, while those that are fighting in Nigeria as Boko Haram claim to be Muslims? But the way they are doing it is anti-Islamic.”

When confronted with the fact that Nigeria has large populations of both Muslims and Christians and that some Christians are complaining that he is giving Islamic identity to the country by his actions, Buhari wondered why the Christians who are complaining have not deemed it fit to confront members of Boko Haram in the North East or militants in the South South

“Why can’t those Christians that complained go and fight terrorism in Nigeria or fight the militancy in the South. It’s Nigeria that matters, not the opinion of some religious bigots,” he declared.

The President however denied any attempt to change the religious identity of the country.

He said, “How can I change the religious identity of Nigeria?

“No religion advocates hurting the innocent and just because the Muslims are the ones that claim to be Boko Haram and they are killing innocent people whether in the church, in the bus or in the market place, then I will just sit and look at them because I too am a Muslim? Islam is against injustice in any form.”

Roadmike:



For the information of All and Mr President himself, majority of solders involved in the fight against terror in the North East were mainly Southern Christian same for the casualties. Its only of rent that the Buratais of this world are getting involved when the war is almost over.

You just they talk rubbish. I pity your people. I even wonder if you are a Christian or a disguised Christian. We Christians wey northerners dey call infidel & u dey here dey spew rubbish

Zamurano1:
