And we want Nigeria to be better?

Restructure this shithole and grant autonomy to individual states. After 3years, it's the individual citizens of these backward states that will personally Stone to death these idiots that have mortgaged their future with religion when they see the developments recorded in other states.

Like free oil money is seriously one of our problem. Imagine 95 mosques? One Nigeria my foot..

Nonsense...

many of our leaders should be undergoing mental test before assuming their position. what happened to building of schools and renovating the existing ones. I think most of these governors should learn from Seyi Makinde of Oyo state

If only one can write home about the characters of dx church attendees and mosque attendee...then this world will be a better place to be in.

If most of the attendees aren't after misguided pastors.

Kudos to em.

If only one can write home about the characters of dx church attendees and mosque attendee and biased church /mosque leaders..then this world will be a better place to be in.

Nothing concern me

We are unequally yoked together in this Nation!

I see fools up there condemning it. But if na one of SE states dey do this, them go dey shout "Jesus is lord".

As far as Jigawa people are not complaining, its none of our business

Whaaaattttt...!

We don't need mosques and churches or shrines and covens. What Nigeria and Africa need right now are schools and science laboratories.

Meanwhile here in the south government does not construct churches for the people. But we still have more churches in the south than mosque in the north because southerners have turned church into business center.

Wowzyyy

What an achievement.

I no even sure say Saudi Arabia, the custodians of the faith has up to this number of mosques..

Animals...

waste of time and resources because that is not the responsibility of govt

Nawaa oooooo I am short of words. No matter what you do to an aboki, he will always reason like Aboki

Smh

Nigeria... get well soon.
