Religion is not a business. Just listen to how you proudly proclaimed your brother an idiott because thats what he is if he doesnt get proceesa from that church.

Religious places arent institutions, these types of acts are what deter some people from religion. And the beauty of islam is when you do a noble deed, you saying it means you get a lower reward. I dont know about fashola but whre im from i know dangote helps out a lot even if it doesnt have to do with mosques and that is enough.




It is ur brother that is an iddiiot, u inclucive..
My brother did it for the sake and love of God, ur type in the muslim should continue killing because u are not better than us, guy u don see three square meal chop today? Jealousy will continue to eat u up, u will remain where u are until u accept that only three religion came from Abraham (christianity , islam and Judaism) and they all worship same God

are you really a christain? What is the difference between you and a mallam . I am afraid a mallam is even more intelligent than you . Learn to respect your elders

You say that as if its an isolated incidence. You dont know what intelligence is do you? Intelligence isnt hindered or restricted by religion small fry. Today some scientologists have an IQ greater than that of your family combined. So stop it with the condescending rhetoric.

I may not support that they should be paying tax to a corrupt government like Africa here.... if government itself want to be transparent.... they should mandate or authorise the mega churchs or mosques to build/construct road, bridge housing of certain kilometers per annual as part of their contribution to a nation.

A Muslim calling for tax on churches. I don't blame him. I blame Christians who lead the way in critisizing their faith publicly,calling for tax on their own faith,attacking their pastors publicly etc.
And when you do that, the Muslims will join us to critisize our faith and it's leaders while shielding theirs jealously.

Lets be truthful. When our leaders, whether spiritual or political r drifting away from their calling. We ve to caution them and not act as blind followers.

Please this Man should desist from saying what he does not know. D church is not d mosque, Christianity is not Islam. infact dis two religion don't serve or worship d same God as some people think


Dis expensive schools dis Churches build, is it just for business? Muslims and other people also benefit from it. To me d church shld be commended for helping d government bridge vision of education for all.
from my own perspective most religious leaders of today are glorified business man/scammers, if you have ever attended a Catholic school built many years back which is presently owned by govt these are schools which are built not only from the tyt n offering but also from the pocket of the leaders of the church and they delivered unbiased, non fraudulent, and quality education that breaches the gap between the rich and the poor but presently churches and skuls but by churches and other church related establishment are business and profit oriented and the tin wey dey pain me pass b say if na 10 naira u fit afford for offering unless d pastor no c u wen c you them fit call you out begin dey indirectly insult u some even fit select the moni throw way or when them one pray for pple wey pay tyt and those wey no fit afford a dime for tyt na dat time you go remember say poverty no good, but in December actual sense is this what our churches should stand for?, a member of sososo church can't even send his or her child to a skul built by same church he or she attend becos of high cost of skul fee it is so unjust conclusively churches and mosques should b equally and strictly taxed according to their earning.

It is obvious this boko aram is looking for religious trouble if not what concerns an Islamic terrorist with Christianity and their businesses.
All Muslims are terrorists. The ultimate aim of the Nigerian Muslims is to denigrate the body of Christ in Nigeria, regulate our activities and most especially ensure that we pay tax.
Christians must say no to this as you pay tax only to ones masters. Moreover, the wealth of the Church comes from Private owned funds which cannot be further taxed.
No Christian has ever asked Muslims to account for the funds given by ISIS nations of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar UAE etc.
If the Islamist government in Nigeria succeed in taxing Christians, it's more or less confirming Christians have become slaves and second class citizens in this country and we must never allow it.
In actual facts, Christians should totally discriminate against Muslims in Nigeria by ensuring that Muslims don't attend their schools, hospitals or ride in buses and airplanes owned by the church by placing stickers which forbids Muslims.
The Muslims should get theirs from their private funds or from sponsors of ISIS i.e. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, UAE etc. if they need these social services as well. Who cares.
Lastly Christian must be ready to sue these terrorists at the world court and be violent against oppression against the Church of Christ in Nigeria by resulting to self defense, formation of a security unit empowered to bear arm etc.
To hell with these terrorists and slaves of that terrorist called Usman Danfodio.

All this Islamic confuse folks, what's your business with churches and their leaders, churches are building schools, creating jobs that govt has failed to create and adding value to the society in their own little way, yet the mosque are sponsoring terrorism to destabilize Nigeria, sending their henchmen to kill Christians willfully.
Yet they have the effontery to confront the church.

What nonsense.

Oh Bingohari is in power, hence thier audacity.No where in the world is the church taxed, Never has it happened, not in Nigeria.

Oh the church should pay tax so the corrupt govt would have more to steal, I see.

madam,read b4 u cmment...he said churches and mosques






Of course I did. What I mean is that he shouldn't take advantage of the boiling situation to pick on churches. There are other topics/issues he can speak on. Everything should not be religion based. I quite understand him but the fact still remains that he knows what he's saying and some people don't seem to get his real point. If not I think he should pick up a copy of the Nigerian tax law for more explanations. Neither a church nor a mosque is profit oriented and he knows that and mosques don't collect tithes and offering, so who's he indirectly referring to. And don't forget that most of these private institutions are funded from income derived from offerings and tithes and they belong to no man except God so why should the government eat what doesn't belong to them.

I don't see anything wrong in places of worship paying taxes.

I am sure we all want, what's best for the country.

So what's the big deal.

Reason it. You pay taxes. I would agree that we don't really see the results of paying such taxes, but some of these taxes are the salaries of government workers, so at least you are paying someone's salary.

So what's the big deal...

Any church GO that said "I' am answerable to God only" is a thief and does not believe in God nor understand what's written in the Bible.

This issue is not even new, because Christians have been paying tax from time immemorial. When similar situation arose during Jesus's day, Jesus was asked his opinion, and he replied "give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God".

Caesar was then the Roman governor collecting taxes for the Roman government in Judea, Jerusalem and environs.

Matthew 22:20-22
Mark 12:17

Note: I' am not a religious person, but I believe in God, so I' am completely neutral here. Religion is of the anti-Christ, religion is a way to hell.

School established by churches are already taxed. These churches are paying tax to the state government. Are u telling me covenant university is not paying tax to Ogun state government? But the idea of a sheik telling the government to be taxing a church is what am against. Does the sheik want the taxed money collected to be used in maintaining the Sharia court? Or using it to build almongiri school.
He knows that the law will affects churches more than the mosque. Tell me how many mosque are super rich in Nigeria and compare it to super rich churches.
