“We are constrained to ask if we have to conduct an all-encompassing examination of medical health for non secular leaders in Nigeria. How can anybody simply bounce to the conclusion that the current administration which merely yielded to persistent agitations over the June 12 saga was participating in jihad as a result of all of the June 12 awardees are Muslims.
“NCEF has intentionally and most wickedly twisted a coincidence to whip up gymnastic religiousity. The group additionally goofed by saying that Abiola was not a Sunni Muslim. How a lot of Abiola’s Islam do they know? This declare quantities to desecration of the lifeless.
“How may there be a connection between the Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) and EFCC?
“Was it not Obasanjo who established the EFCC? The final time we checked, Obasanjo had not made up his thoughts to turn into a Muslim. NCEF’s creativeness is operating wild. Nigerians shouldn't be shocked if by tomorrow NCEF claims that the Saudi king is plotting to turn into the subsequent American president to be able to Islamise the entire West.
“If Nigerian Muslims have never claimed that the January 15, 1966 coup was an attempt at Christianising the country, how can NCEF, in its rational moment (which of course is very rare), claim that the 1975 coup was a jihad?”
Akintola argued that details on floor additionally garbage NCEF’s allegation that the Buhari administration is pursuing an anti-Christian agenda.
