Interesting...Kano and osun gone..more to follow..This is how it starts,one after another untill the much acclaimed and denied islamisation takes place.. SE and SS should be alert before its too late..SW is half gone with the caliphate already afterall the Christians there say they are one with their muslim counter-parts in all they say or do 66 Likes 7 Shares |

Osun and Kano is celebrating the Hijrah. I hope on Jan 1st,only 34 states will celebrate the New Year,FG take note. Some Governors are just good to throw into the Atlantic, Even Governors in Gombe,Borno did not even conduct a Public Holiday,and see Aregbe. How can somebody justify the amount the state will lose that day, Why won't Amosun declare public holiday? These holidays are needless.We have the highest number of religious bodies in this country yet we are worse off than countries who do not believe in God. Every year,we take turns going to Mecca and Israel to help them boost their IGR,yet we learn nothing....other than strife,murder,corruption,etc. I do not know why the FG will keep on funding the Pilgrims Board,f.uck the Pilgrims Board,and get your head and acts together,rubbish. He should declare the whole year public holiday sef,just how many days after 4days was taken out..... It is not like we even learn anything from the holidays sef,except help public civil servants stay at home. "Love is my own Religion-I can die for it." Good luck,Osun 22 Likes |

constitutional, It's an impeachment offenses. but the legislature is always a rubble stamp. am more concerned about Osun state, I believe there are things more important than the Islamic holiday that also require urgent attention. 3 Likes |

Osun too? Didn't know the state is [now?] majority muslim. Soon, Kwara and Oyo could join the fray in that axis. The bulwark of Christianity in Nigeria - the former eastern region - and christian parts of the former western and northern regions had better watch out. On fool's island is that individual who thinks Nigeria is a 'secular' state. 12 Likes 1 Share |
