No, I don't realise any such nonsense because it is not true.

Sharia Law has beheading as the penalty for some crimes but I haven't heard of anyone sentenced to beheading for any crime in Nigeria!

There are four distinct legal systems in Nigeria, which include English law, Common law, Customary law, and Sharia Law, but the highest court is based on English Law.

So because you haven't heard of beheading as punishment for a crime, then the penal code isn't based on sharia law. Is that really your argument? OK, so have you ever heard by death by storing?

Or better still, if the penal code isn't heavily based on sharia law them what is it based on?

You don't realize? Could it be that maybe, just maybe you don't know what you're talking about?

No, not hearing about beheading as punishment for a crime" is not the reason "the penal code isn't based on sharia law". A simple study of Nigerian law will show you what it is based on, and it is not Sharia law, period.

But of course if you know otherwise you can simply provide evidence showing that Nigerian law is based on sharia law instead of asserting baseless claims, or admit it is you who does not know what you are talking about.

What "a lot of clerics believe" is irrelevant. You might as well say "a lot of paedophiles believe" and "Not that they could all help themselves", so therefore it must not be illegal, which it is.

If a cleric sexually abuses a 2 year old their ass will be in jail when caught!

It is irrelevant to you but to those who learn from those clerics and practice their teachings... It is not irrelevant.

Germany, Sweden etc all had rape problems when people with certain beliefs were let into the country with great proportion.

I am sure, if someone like CoolUsername speaks out, you guys will be the first to call him a bigot or Islamophobic.

Trump was a racist to call Africa shithole which is not wrong... But y'all not you in specific, you other friends are fast to call Africa and the people in it shit when someone says something about democrats or America they did not like.

What has child right got to do with paedophiles raping kids. Do you think child right act would stop the rampaging paedophiles all over Nigeria. Lol

Maybe it looks like a change of goal posts when you place my response to a completely different comment under wirinet's comment.

It's the Child's Right Act that defines the age of majority of Nigeria. The fact that you don't even know that indicates to me that you should go and educate yourself first before coming for me.

You obviously do not understand what you posted or you're trying to play smart thinking one is dumb like you are.

First, what you posted does not make any claim that Nigeria law and or the penal code is based on sharia law.

Second, even in states where Sharia law is applied, its jurisdiction is limited. Non-Muslims are not subject to it if they do not wish to be.

Third, even Muslims in Kano are objecting to the limited implementation of Sharia law, so on what basis do you claim "Nigerian law is based on Sharia law"? Can you implement this your "based on Sharia law" in Lagos or Aba where the law is based on English Law to which even Sharia law in Kano is subject to appeal?

There's no shame in admitting you misspoke, but continuing to misspeak in light of contrary evidence just further shows a lack of knowledge!

These guys don't know what they are talking about. They saw me post something spicy so they felt the need to go against me because they have associated my account with opinions that go against theirs.

There's a reason Yerima was able to marry a 13-year-old, divorce her after 4 years and a baby, then replace her with a 15-year-old all on the right side of the law in his state.

These guys are so coked up on the woke culture that they can't even accept the fact that certain cultural and religious beliefs fuel these issues. They would rather paint all of us with the same broad brush. How do you compare paedophiles getting prosecuted in their own states to a sitting senator legally marrying a 13-year-old in his state?

Nigerian Court of Appeals Upholds Sharia Law in High Profile Blasphemy Case

08/17/2022 Nigeria (International Christian Concern) – Nigeria’s Kano State High Court doubled down on a ruling that the Sharia court system can hand down death sentences in blasphemy cases. The decision blurs the line between what can be tried in Sharia court, raising concerns about the implications for religious freedom.

The three-judge panel held that the Kano State Sharia Court has jurisdiction to try blasphemy cases. The ruling comes after the case of Yahaya Aminu Sharif. A 22-year-old singer was sentenced to death on accusations of blasphemy.

Sharif was arrested after a series of audio recordings became public where he appeared to elevate an imam above the Muslim prophet Mohammed. In August 2020, the Kano State Sharia Court found Sharif guilty of blasphemy and sentenced him to death.

However, the court did not allow Sharif legal representation during his trial, so the secular court ruled that the Sharia court must retry Sharif’s case. The order may have appeared positive for Sharif because it allowed him a fair trial. But the order was a green light by a secular court of the Sharia court’s authority to try blasphemy cases and impose religious sentences.

Don't be surprised to learn he was against a man who was fighting grooming gangs in England.

Which western country does not have rapes? Is this how you argue?

Who was blaming the victims of rape on their dress code before certain people with beliefs were let in? No one...

Every country had rapes... But at what percent did it shoot up in German and Sweden before those people enter?

You know, when said you didn't know what you were talking about, I actually didn't expect such a high degree of ignorance. I was using basic Nigerian law terminology expecting that you either understood me or had the good faith to ask for clarification or do some basic research of your own.

Southern states use the criminal code, northern states use the penal code. Capiche? This makes what you were saying about Lagos and Aba a total non-starter, and further exposes your ignorance on this issue.

When I was a kid. When my dad drives me around Port Harcourt, I see a lot of hausa people with no legs, no hands some are blind begging... I didn't know they have gone through sharia law because I didn't know of it. It's when I reached 17yo I realised why those people are like that.

The fact that the penal code is a part of the criminal code does not tell you that Nigerian law is not based on the penal code as you claimed?

Sharia has very limited application even in states that adopt it. One must give written consent before one can be tried under it, and it's decisions can be challenged in the Supreme Court as has been done numerous times.

Allowing child marriage basically means that your are instituting paedophilia into law. Not allowing it is step towards curbing child grooming and child rape culture.
