I've met some Igbos that practice Islam here in Abuja.... Most times you won't even know they're Igbos until you interact with them...I bet you most of their relatives at home don't even know their religious preference. It will take more than a millennium for Islam to spread in igbo land... Most of them are visitors and are even allowed to build mosques nowadays.... Meanwhile there are more Christians in Zamfara than Muslim's in the entire South East..... Who even made this thread?

nwabobo:


It is Catholic/Anglican ticket here.

Help me tell am.Othman Dan fodio was stopped in the terrains of plateau/Benue.He didn't even get anywhere close to the east

PaChukwudi44:
Like ii said before if we are to consider religion in picking deputy governor candidates then pagans will first be considered before Muslims in igboland because there are more in number

Then do that. Show diversity

yomi961:
As a Yoruba man I could careless about Peter obi, and if the east was that polarised along religious lines he would, haven said that, it is imperative to say that what we need as a nation moving forward is builder, detribilised, entrepreneur and someone committed to restructuring. It would be catastrophic to even consider voting ethnicity over competence

Remain blessed.

Just leave the boy, na his way.

We are not discussing population. Listen to what im saying....diversity!

If you have a staff of 50,000 and 49,999 are males, the one female staff obligates your company to acknowledge diversity and protect her interest in a way she doesnt see herself as an outsider. Its also called inclusion so people like you who may not understand what diversity is can get a grip.

If Igbos in SE are 50million and all but 10 people are muslims, the State is obligated to acknowledge and give them sense of inclusion.

Igbo muslims are crying that they are not included.

BankeSmalls:
Truth is, igbos have a way of turning failures to succeess. I may vote PDP.

That's our nature, that's our goal.

u know wat is called a 'visible minority'? Why are yoruba people always talking unintelligently wen ever they are arguing politics with igbos? All most all of u say things that dont make sense wen ever we argue here. Kinda shows me u guys have no point at all.

Igbos are 99% christians. Even people practicing other religions here are also going to church too. Therefore religion plays no role in politics here. Except catholic vs ang vs penticostal...that in itself plays little or no role because of blurred differences.

Kaduna on the other hand is a religiously troubled state with a very visible minority who have raised alarm in the past of plans to islamise them. Plans to turn their chiefdoms into emirates...

Why are u guys annoyingly dull?

PaChukwudi44:

My dear Islam is virtually nonexistent in igboland.The second major religion after Christianity in igboland is paganism. you should be talking about a Christian-pagan ticket and not a Christian-musllim ticket. In all my life I have never met an Igbo Muslim but have seen a few pagans

Bros, ignore these guys. The guy is obviously hating on the homogenity of the Igbos. We will never allow Islam a foothold in Igbo land. The OP knows that SW's heterogenous composition is the reason for their instability and double-face.

ImperialYoruba:


Banke, how do you feel about Arewa Igbo muslims relocating home to contest for posts?

Bro thrs nothing like arewa ibo, simple u say igbo muslim

This post reeks of low level of thinking and stupidity, can a Christian become a deputy governor in Kano, Borno, Sokoto, Katsina, Zamfara,Jigawa and other core northern state in Nigeria?
A Muslim will not allow his daughter to marry a Christian, but will want his son to marry a Christian and convert her to island.
You see the igbos as d problem of Nigeria because your islamization agenda cannot sell in the east.
If u want nation building, advocate 4 restructuring and stop displaying to the world how redundant you are.

You don't have sense.... Political positions are now compensation tools to you abi?.... Someone that didn't make himself available can't be elected.... And meanwhile no igbo is segregated against because of religion

ImperialYoruba:
Does Peter Obi, PDP VP support a Christian/Muslim ticket for the country?

If he does will he support same diversity for SE gubernatorial?

There are things I so much hate about Nigerians, it's just annoying and total stupidity.

When Obasanjo was up for the presidential election, Nigerians care less about his VP but attention was centered on him.

When Yaradua was put up for election, no body cared about Jonathan and what he is bringing to the governance, and everyone talked so much and bad about Buhari and nothing was said and talked about concerning Osibanjo, NOW FAST FORWARD TO 2019, PEOPLE INCLUDING EL' RUFAI ARE KILLING THEMSELVES MORE ABOUT PETER OBI than His principal, H E Atiku.

When did V P start gaining so much attention that people are antagonizing him? What are the roles of a V P of Nigeria? Are people just hating this guy because of his achievement or tribe?

Please you guys and el' Rufai should leave this MAN alone and focus on the presidential candidate, who else cares or talks about Osibanjo when buhari has been the one in full charge?

A blind nation that need to wake up to responsibilities and stop this hate of Peter Obi

You are still in denial. Igbo muslims said they are not included and are not acknowledged.

If diversity will make us look like you, pls keep it in your region
