While can't these wicked, hypocrites and stupid Ghanaians shut up their dirty 'all die be die' mouths and let Nigeria fight all these evil being perpetrated against it by some of our neighbors in West Africa, including Cameroun, Chad, Niger and Ghana, so as to wreck the buoyant economy of Nigeria out of ENVY. They all supports Boko Haram, one way or the other. Some Ghanaians Muslims do sneaked into Nigeria to commit some of these atrocities in support of their fellow heartless Hausa Fulani Boko Haram Muslims in Northern Nigeria. That is a fact.

Some of those evil people supports Boko Haram in Nigeria are from Nima and Moslems from in Ghana. I have seen some of the gory pictures of Nigerian Christians being hacked to death by Boko Haram, on 'wassaps' being spread by some of the evil Islamic Nima Boys, from Ghana. That is fact. It is an open secret amongst Ghanians Moslems anyway.

(I wonder how did these Nima Boys got hold of those gory pictures of Christians being massacred in Northern Nigeria, if they are not part of the atrocities)? The truth will come out one day by the Grace of God. All these Islamic evil atrocities by fellow Africans Muslems and their equally evil Arab sponsors against Nigeria shall be exposed one day IJN.

If Ghanaians thinks that they are immuned from the terror and evil of Islamic religion, they are living in a fool paradise. Your evil days are just being postponed for another day of calamity in Ghana. Mark my word. As long as you have Muslims in your midst, then your peaceful days are numbered. Mark my words. There is nothing like peaceful Muslims, trust me. The only peaceful Muslims are DEAD MUSLIMS, period.

deliberately distorted bible verses to justify islamic madness! My comments on each verse as below.
Ezekiel 9:6 "Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women . - This God Almighty says to Prophet of Israel, Ezkiel about judgement on God's Nation of Israel bcz of their sins. He is a just God punishing His chosen Nation and people. It has no relevance here.

2)Isaiah 13:16 "Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished." - This speak about God's judgement own Babylon for their grave sins, which God did implement subsequently, well recorded in history.

All subsequent verses are God's own words, the law given to Israel. And it is well recorded in history how God subsequently fulfilled all those in the history of Israel and jewish people. Quoting those verses have no relevance here. It shows criminal intentions to whitewash grave sins committed by Boko Haram.

What I clearly see is your hatred towards de noble religion,Islam.Some of you guys are always out to tarnish our image but I pause to ask,how many times do you see or hear a muslim trying to paint your religion black.We are the most peaceful it is just a few misguided ones that go astray and try to relate it to Islam. And if you talk about the buoyancy of the Nigerian economy,is it only muslims that can envy their economy? If that is anything to go by,then anybody can be envious of their economy and not only muslims so don't try to skew it towards muslims.Don't try to massage your arguments without facts.As is found in your scriptures, speak the truth and the truth shall set you free.If you have nothing to say it is better you sit in your corner and remain silent.

Analyse the issues carefully and punch holes where you differs, then we can make progress. The writer does not hate Islam and by your extention moslems is the most naive analysis that politicians
use to cause disaffection for people and that is exactly what you are doing.We are all aware that the clerics are the one recruiting the members of the Boko Haram and in Nigeria what the Boko Haram seek to do will not benefit christians but the moslems but important moslem leaders who have clout have all shut their mouth and remain mumb. If the Boko Haram were to be a christian terrorist group and christian leaders shut their mouth or remain numb then it will also be perceived to mean they are supportive of the group. Let's again analyse the issue carefully and come out with a better solution instead of needless personality attack that will yield nothing. Thanks

Mr. Nurideen Mohammed, you know all the peaceful verses of the quran you and your Islamic scholars quote are the Meccan verses. These verses were revealed in Mecca at a time when Mohammed had few followers(about 130 Muslims for the first 13 years of his so called prophethood). He therefore could not wage war because of their numbers. When he migrated to Madina where he won followers in their tens of thousands that cold form a strong fighting force, that was when the violent verses of the quran, which the terrorists use to justify their actions, began to be revealed by Allah. Now the problems is that every student of Islam is told the Madina verses(the violent verses of the quran) abrogate(nullify) the Meccan ones(the peaceful verses found in the first half of the quran) if they contradict one another. So what the Islamic scholar do which you claim is a condemnation of terrorism is simply to quote verses of the quran which have been abrogated, not to stop the terrorists because the terrorists also know that the peaceful verses have been abrogated, but to deceive unsuspecting non Muslims to believe that the terrorists are unislamic. This is because not many unbelievers would see Islam to be attractive to be converted into it if they know the terrorists are rather justified than the Islamic scholars. The theological term which refers to the use of deception to win believers into Islam is called taqiyya. And this is what the Islamic scholars and Muslims do when they quote verses of the quran which are abrogated by the violent ones to white wash Islam and to deceive unbelievers so that the terrorist continue to kill us. Islam is the only religion that uses unfair means, including deception, to win more followers.

Bilal, Christians don't consider the pope as an authority. It is the bible which is. So if the pope or any Christian leader does anything contradictory to the bible do you fault Christians? When we fault Islam for terrorism, it is because it is theologically enshrined in Islamic scriptures and even the sayings and actions of your prophet. Let me also remind you that the Christian crusades were in reaction to the killing of Christians, burning down of churches, raping of Christian ladies, desecration of Christian holy sites such as the tomb of Jesus, Peter, the looting of properties of Christians, etc.by Muslims five years after the death of Mohammed and this continued for 240 years before Christians decided to arm themselves to face the bullies bumper to bumper. So should a christian be ashamed of the crusades? No, I don't think so.

All the problems Africa now has originated from Arab terrorism within Africa that dates back to the 640s AD in Egypt. After the Christians in Byzatine Egypt, who were descendants of Syrians and Palestinians brought into Egypt to prop up the Christian cult at the time, handed the country to the Arab Moslems who were their brothers. After the Arabs Moslems tookover Egypt, they set about suppressing the non-Moslem black African population that refused to be dictated to by people who used to be their servants. The Africans intensified their resistance struggle which they had being waging against the Greeks and later the Romans and now against the Arabs in Egypt from Nubia. The Arabs invaded Nubia twice in quick succession but they could not take it.

In Egypt, the Be-dja and the Nu-bi-ta had intensified the struggle against the Arabs. To stop the resistance struggle, which they were losing, the Arabs brought in Morrocan and Turkish mercenaries who murdered many non-Moslems who were black Africans still following their own religion, seized their temples, homes and lands. As the resistance against Islam intensified, the Moslem authorities set fire to non-Moslem Arab areas in Cairo. Meanwhile, the Arabs Moslems did not venture into Nubia again until after 600 years. When they went back, they used covert action by marrying into the royal families and getting their children to declare their kingdoms as Moslem states. That was how Nubia and the Kordofan became Islamic. It is a trick they used in ancient Egypt in the New Kingdom to takeover the north for a while. By the 8th Century, the Arabs had followed the blacks who left Egypt into the Lake Chad area of Central Africa and West Africa. The first kingdom they attacked was Kanemi.

They used a proxy who disposed of the Ma-yi 'king' and declared Jihad on their neighbours if they refused Isalm. In the Sokoto area of now northern Nigeria, the Ahusa states walled their towns to prevent the Islamist from taking over , little did they know that Utman Danfodio would come several centuries after and hand their area to Islam on a silver platter in the same od so-called, social justice by waging relentless jihad against his own people. Later, the Arabs and their proxies in Morocco and the Fulani traitors in our mist would attack Wagadu (Ghana)because they refused to be Moslems and make it an Islamic kingdom. Later on, the Moslems would like to tell us that Ghana was originally started and developed by Moslems? Let them tell us the meaning of Wa-ga-du and even Ghana. That was how we ended up with the quick succession of the Songhai and Mali empires. In all these attacks, the Moslem Arabs and their proxies seized hundreds of thousands, probably millions, of blacks from the Soudan (Sahel) back to North Africa and the Middle East and enslaved them. At the same time, they suppressed their own native blacks and ethnically cleansed the north of black Africans. It has been sugested that the men were probably castrated to prevent them from producing children.

If you look at North Africa, it is hard to find pure blacks there. As much as one would expect that the black would have been assimilated due to the admixture that resulted from the huge inflows of Arabs into the area, it is difficult to see why it is all so Arabic. Even in Greece, we still find signs of the black blood left there several thousands years ago by the ancient Egyptians when Sosetris' army invaded there. But in North Africa which used to be black land, we hardly see blacks. So the idea being propagated by misguided Moslems in Ghana, that somehow, Islam is a peaceful religion, is all charage. These claims are made by African Moslems completely oblivious to the atrocities committed against their own ancestors by the the Arabs who until their takeover of Egypt in the 640s were just desert dwellers on the fringes of Africa. But why should we expect African Moslems to know this; after all, their religion teaches them that they were nothing until they were saved by Islam. What a joke! The evidence in Africa since the 640s completely debunks the Moslem assertion that they are peaceful. Look at Sudan and Somalia.

These two countries, like most Islamic countries in Africa, cannot even trace their history beyond the introduction of Islam in their countries. But how can people who live in Punt/Nete now called Somalia and Nubia, now located mainly in Sudan accept that their history only began with Islam when it began more than 7,000years before if they have not been all brainwashed? Look at what is happening in Nigeria. The Arabs, since 640s AD had been ethnically clensing North Africa of its native black populationa. They terrorised the Sahel for atleast 300years. Ironically, it was the coming of the Europeans in the 15th Century with better weapons that stopped the Moslem terrorism and slavery in Africa which created wars and huge movements of people and suspicion between neighbours, because if you failed to acquire weapons to attack your neighbour, seize him and enslave him, either he would do it or the Arabs nd their proxies, the Fulani would do it. Blacks need to read this history and stop regarding the Arab Moslems as some peaceful people.

They are only peaceful to you if you accept their religion. Anything else won't wash. It is clear in their history. They were the ones that introduced slavery into West and Central Africa and they were the promoters of it during the Transatlantic Slave Trade. They may be trying to colonialise Africa by stealth. We should not forget that when they could not beat the Nubians, they waited and waited for 600years and eventually, took them over through simple marriage just as they waited for 3,000 years to takeover Egypt. The blacks must realise, that the only place left for us is the Atlantic Ocean. We cannot go in there. We need to protect our national interest and stop behaving like children.

Pls be brave to put the contents of that verse (Luke 19:27) on your comment page or even the whole chapter because you are making the case for the non-existence of such murderous verses in the "Holy Bible".

Nice piece of Pure African History there. So, the Coming of the Europeans is a blessing, Right? If, the Arab enslavement was more regionalised, the Europeans made it international. Europeans or Arabs, they are both haters of blacks. However, it is the weakness, greed and gullibility of the Black Africans that cost them their land, culture and all the sufferings. And at least i have read about the use of violence by both Islam and Christianity in converting and keeping other cultures submissive.

What a moron. "The Old Testament was also hard, but Thanks be to God..." Is the Old Testament part of the Holy Bible or its called Tonk's Daily Graphic ? What a raving idiot! God's injunctions against evil whether in Christianity or Islam is the same. Do you know Jesus has to use violence to drive out those defiling God's church. Do you know Prophet Samuel murdered Agag when Saul refused to kill him? Do you know David had to kill Goliath to prevent him from harming those worshipping God? For the erudition of your empty head; When God wants to move against evil, he sometimes give it time, or completely eradicates it.

The actions of Boko Haram has nothing to do with Islam. It is a terrorist organization pure and simple. And to connect their activities with Quranic quotations is the most stupid and uneducated thing you could ever do. Learn your own Bible okay. Running away from one part of the Holy Bible and taking refuge in another makes you a running hypocrites

Mr Atongo (or whatever you call yourself)your quotation from the Holy Quran lacks elementary sense and human logic. The entity called Boko Haram sprung up from poverty and utter delusion with a system (the Nigerian ruling authorities) that has become corrupt and showing no sign of correcting itself.

Boko Haram is a terrorist anti-thesis to a very corrupt and abominable thesis calling itself Government. To connect the activities of such a terrorist organization with Islam is to close your eyes to history and facts surrounding your own religion.

First of all, whenever a society ignore absurd poverty raging among its citizenry whiles the ruling class parades around in opulence, people will resort to rebellion. Boko haram is a typical case in point. However, the organization has cocooned itself under the umbrella of religion to mask its true grievance with the failed and failing Nigerian authorities.

And secondly, quoting Quranic injunctions on fighting against those who are opposed to God does not do justice to your own Christian religion. Let me remind you that throughout history, that is exactly one of the means God used to steer humanity from darkness to light.

Ask yourself why the Prophet Samuel 'hewed King Agag to pieces' when Saul had spared his life ? Ask yourself why God rained brimstone and fire to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah? Ask yourself why Jesus took the whip and drove the money changers from the church's premises ?

In God's guest to save humanity from its own madness, sometimes he instructs his followers to use brutal means in order to secure the faithful. Humans by nature can be cruel and very evil, and that is the reason why even though he is God of love, he sometimes shows his Justice part.

So approach religion from the holistic point of view. The Crusaders will vehemently disagree with your views of religion, for they very much did exactly what you claim to be evil about Islam

The problem with your comparison of the old testament verses and the quran is that Christians don't believe those verses are open ended revelations of God to be used in committing atrocities against unbelievers. Those verses we believe were meant against the enemies of the Jews/God at the time.
Muslims also believe certain verses of the quran expired because they were replaced by new revelations. Unfortunately for us those verses of the quran that were replaced/abrogated/nullified happen to be the peaceful ones.
So learn to do informed comparisons and stop this bigotry. When did Christian ever quote old testament verses to justify crime? You think by trying to engage in equalisation you would be justified, when the terrorist invade Ghana we would see if you and your family will be justified before them. They have killed several Muslims who defended Islam rather attacking their crime against humanity. Defending Islam is good for Islam, but that wouldn't make you innocent be4 the terrorists because they know you are a hypocrite by refusing to obey the quran and join the jehad wave.

Hitler is known to have said after exterminating the Jews the next thing he would do would be to wipe out Christianity from Germany. He said the crosses on churches would be replaced with the sword and the bible would be replaced with his manifesto-the mein kauf. These certainly are not the words of a Christian. Are they?

Are they not the Sheiks and the Muslim Clerics who supports this groups with financial assistance for arms and ammunitions. Those at the top incite the poor souls to fight for an Ismamist State. Why is Jihad always used to fight for an illegitimate cause? Is Saudi Arabi not the core financier of terrorist groups?

Nurideen, good one. I am glad someone responded to Casely Hayford's statements, borne out of ignorance and misinformed generalisations about Islam and the genesis of the Boko Haram scourge. Boko Haram is more a reaction to Nigerian injustice, state criminality and unfettered military gangsterism, than it is a product of Islam. Injustice mixed with poverty creates disaffection, and people all over the world will use whatever means to address the injustice, be it peacefully or violently and draped in religious and or socio-economic ideology. This problem must be placed squarely on the footsteps of the Nigerian govt and military, and until there is justice for the slain leader of Boko Haram, Yusuf Mohammed (killed in 2009 in police/military custody), they probably will not stop.

From Wikipedi -

Human Rights Watch researcher Eric Guttschuss told IRIN News that Yusuf successfully attracted followers from unemployed youth "by speaking out against police and political corruption". Abdulkarim Mohammed, a researcher on Boko Haram, added that violent uprisings in Nigeria are ultimately due to "the fallout of frustration with corruption and the attendant social malaise of poverty and unemployment". Chris Kwaja, a Nigerian university lecturer and researcher, asserts that “religious dimensions of the conflict have been misconstrued as the primary driver of violence when, in fact, disenfranchisement and inequality are the root causes”

So, Salute to Nurideen for speaking out on Casely Hayford's ignorance. And to Casely-Hayford, we expect better analysis of the Boko Haram situation from a scholar and social commentator such as yourself. Please do your research instead of projecting your flawed religion-centric view of the world.

All RELIGIONS ARE EQUALLY GOOD AND BAD!!!! That is the reality. Ku Klux Klan members of the USA are devout Christians. IRA terrorists are devout Christians. Hindu terrorists are devout Hindus.

Boko Haram gets its weapons from the Libyan terrorist group created, armed and used by NATO to overthrow Gaddafi,the LIFG (Libyan Islamic Fighting Group. They also get help from Al Qaida in the Maghreb (AQIM) and even fought alongside the Malian terrorist group, Ansar Dine. There have been reports of collaboration also with the Somali terrorist group, Al Shabaab, which gets its arms from the United Arab Emirates. Recently an official of Turkish Airlines exposed in a leak that Turkey had been flying in weapons via Turkish Airlines to "unknown groups" in Nigeria! Saudi Arabia, however, remains the biggest supporter of all terrorist groups in Africa because they preach the same extreme, medieval form of Islam known as Wahabbi practiced in Saudi Arabia. NATO is a two-faced, lieing mischief-maker. The objective is to create the crisis through its terrorist surrogates and then come in as the Good Samaritan. This way they will eventually displace the Chinese in Africa, prevent African countries from spending their moneys on Technology and infrastructure built by China and rather have them waste money on militarization while the West gets a firm grip on Nigerian and other African energy and mineral resouces.

What Casely-Hayford means. What are renown scholars in west-Afrika in general and in Nigeria particular waiting for. Instead of daily preaching what is far and invisible to the massa, they should concentrate their preaching and condemnation about these barbaric act of Boko-Haram.

No matter what the case is of may be, Boko Haram has his idol Islamic scholar whom he respect and hold in high esteem. What are these people doing to let hem undertsnd that what he is doing has nothing to do with Islam, or are these people benefitting from the perpetuated pathology?.

The word Islam is not only for Muslims, any tom dick can call themself Islam and Muslim.

You cant be against peace and you cant be against Muslims or christines. Islam, Muslims, Jews and christine are not for anybody, God asked us to obey what is written by the prophats after God told them.
Nobody or no group can claim Islam (peace) or any other religion of the one God.
Boko Haram are NOT true Muslims and dont have anything to do with Peace (Islam).
Just because you cant understand a language you dont make up words.
Casely-Hayforce is like the Boko Haram. Boko means the western education. This is group who has nothing to do with Islam and Mohammed saw. A Muslim should look for knowledge no matter how far, it didnt say english or Arabic.
Anti western education and Islam or Muslims are not the same thing. Anti western education has nothing to do with Islam.
How stupid Casely can be in thinking Education is a religion. Casely-Hayford is a Boko Haram in thinking going to school is a religion.
Those poor student are only believes in Christ that is the reason not western education. Boko Haram like Casely-Haram dont know going to school is not a western thing.
Africa had the first educational institution in the world, our father used to travel from ghana to Mali to go to school. Our fathers comes back with languages, writing and knowledge of what is going around the world.
Boko Haram only speaks in Hause, they know nothing about Arabic or English langusges. How can anybody without knowledge of something talk about it..
Boko Haram are not Muslim because Muslim asked everybody to seek knowledge.
Casely-Hayford is stupid thinking Boko Haram are Muslim. How can a group of fool be call Muslims when they are not.
Casely Hayford is a Boko Haram, these are people who refused themselvies education. Casely Hayford should seach for knowledge about what Muslim and Islam is.
We have stupid people in different country who are like Boko Haram. At UK you get people who dont want eastern education, they dont Arabic schools. These people are the people God put a seal in their heart and mind and can only get away with this by looking for knowledge.
There is nothing wrong learning whether a man or woman.
Casely-Haram should be haram (not good) and people should be careful of him. Why is he thinking Haram is what Muslim do, Boko Haram is not a religious group but a group who dont want girls to learn English language.

Bad governance, corruption, persistent economic hardship, and rising inequality have fostered the growth of radical extremist groups. A Nigerian bishop characterized Boko Haram as "a resistance movement against misrule rather than a purely Islamic group." According to a recent USIP and CLEEN Foundation study, the three major reasons young men join Boko Haram are unemployment and poverty, manipulation by extremist religious leaders, and a lack of awareness of the authentic teachings of Islam.

The problem about people like Mr Caseley-Hayford is that they think they are the paragon of all wisdom. Yet the truth is that nobody knows everything. It is thus a mark of wisdom to know the limits of what you know and strive to know what you don't know. But people like Mr Caseley-Hayford are too arogant to admit that they don't know and seek to know. Rather, they try to impose their ignorance on everybody. Such people will fail.

Speaking as an oracle of Allah, Prophet Mohammed commanded that all those who oppose his teachings be killed or they should be nailed on a tree or their hands and legs be cut off or they be driven out of the land(Sura5:36). The question then is which teaching is the prophet talking about? Mohammed or Allah( or whoever is speaking) says: ' O ye who believe! Take not the Jews or Christians as friends. They are but friends to one another, and he amongst you who takes them(as friends) then surely he is one of them. Verily Allah guides not the unjust people( Sura 5:51). The Qur'an also quotes Allah as saying that violence against non-Muslims is in fact, not just a religious duty but a profitable commerce, business!(Sura 61:10-12). In the Hadiths, Mishkat Masabith, violence against non-Muslims is said to be: "...the best method of earning blessings) both spiritual and temporal. If victory is won, there is enormous booty of a people, which cannot be equaled to any source of income. If there is defeat or death, there is everlasting paradise." The question then is : Who is this Allah?

It's so sad that people like you (Usman) misquoate the Qur'an and mislead people. Q 5:33-36 talks about a Jew clan who were living in Madina with the muslims. There was a treaty between the muslims and the Jews that they will both support each other if any of them is attacked. Madina was attached by more 10000strong army of idol worshipers. The whole Madina surrounded by the idolators who wanted to crush the muslims completely. The Jews liased with the idolators to attacked the muslims from within but God granted victory to the muslims and He revealed those verses. Do you how serious it is to break a peace treaty?

Whilst the actions of Boko Haram is condemnable as heneous crimes committed by common criminals using Islam as a pretext, it is important to bring to Casely-Hayford's attention that, currently anti-Balaka rebels who are a Christian militant group in Central African Republic (CAR) are maiming human beings in that country. Which Ghanaian Christian Cleric or even African Chriatian cleric or group has condemned the activities of the anti- Balaka Christian rebels? Again Christians in Sudan fought and divided the country and now have South Sudan to themselves as a country. Currently, they are maiming themselves and innocent citizens in that country. All the perpetuators and the victims are all Christians. Is Casely-Hayford aware of any Christian Cleric in Ghana condemning these barbaric acts committed by christian militants in CAR and South Sudan, or that is also a subtle endorsement of their actions? Just like Nigeria is outside Ghana and Case-Hayford finds it convenient to draw Ghana's Muslim Clerics into the picture, he might as well draw Ghanaian Christian clerics into terrorist crimes committed by Christian militants in CAR and South Sudan. Any thing short of this is a reflection of his burning hatred for Islam and he should be ashamed of himself. It is because of ugly mischief makers like Casely-Hayford that Jesus Christ laid out the criteria for people who will meet him during his second coming in Matt. 7:21-22. I urge and challenge Casely-Hayford to find a Bible and read this verse and enlighten himself, because I am quite certain he does not know his Bible, that is why he is going to such extremes to make his point .

Boko Haram EXPOSED!!

Boko haram is not a
muslim terror group but
it's a group sponsored by
Christian Association of
Nigeeria (CAN) to destroy
muslims in d north and
give a bad image 2 islam
in d eyes of d world under
d supervision of Goodluck
Ebele Jonathan. It was
form to achieve d aims
and objectives Iisted
below.

(1) They want to balance
the population of muslims
and xtians in nigeria.

(2) our stupid president is
from Niger Delta and he
promised his people 2
take revenge against
northerners concerning
Biafran war.

(3) They want 2
discourage young
northerners away from
pursueing education in
order 2 get d dominance
of d country in d future
datz why they are taking
attack on only northern
schools bcos in d next 50
yrs our graduates will die
and d remaining will
retire, if d younger ones
did not come up nobody
will talk on our behalf as
a result dey can exercise
dominance over muslims.

(4) They want 2
discourage our younger
ones from participating
into Nigerian forces
especially army and police
in order 2 get future
power 2 over dominate d
muslims, my brothers pls
observe dis. In Nigerian
army recruitment scheme
muslims are getting 50%
of d vacancies while
xtians also get 50% but
today muslims can only
occupy 5% of our vacancy
and dat our remaining of
45% is being given 2
xtians wich is making a
proportion of 95% xtians
and only 5% muslims in d
Nigerian army recruitment
if dis trend continue like
dat 4 d next 20 yrs after
our eldely armies retired
we cannot enter mosque
and pray bcos army will
kill us and claim 2 b killing
boko haram member.

(5) They started 2
sacrifice their fellow
xtians by bombing
churches 2 cover up so
dat wen they return 2
killing muslims dey wil say
it is we muslims killing
ourself. How many people
did they kill in church? Is
it not less dan 500 from d
commencement of boko
haram? but more dan
40,000 muslim were
killed.

(6) by broad at least 50
muslims are dying in d
north everyday. calculate
it in everyday 50 are
dying so 50x360 making a
year how many muslims
will die in 1year? and
after ten years d whole
muslim in maiduguri, yobe
and adamawa will be
history.

(7) If boko haram are
muslims have you ever see
their member arrested
and printed on d news
papers?.
( If boko haram are
muslims pls use ur phone
and google dis question
“bombing of madallah
church in
Abuja” and “bombing of
church in Bayelsa” u will
see d result from some of
our most reliable news
papers in d country I.e
Leadership and Dailytrust
who were caught red
handed bombing dos
churches is he not a
christian?

(9) if boko haram are
muslims is there no
muslims in d south why
didn't they become boko
haram members. why is it
dat dere is no bomb blast
in d south?

(10) If muslims are d
boko haram why is it dat
wen Muhammad yusuf
fomer boko haram leader
came back from Sudi
Arabia three famous
leaders of CAN like TY
Danjuma, Proff Jerry
Gana and David Mark go
and rcvd dis man from d
Airport if he is not
working 4 them? And if
dey Really consider him as
an enemy of xtians? And
wen he was arrested by
SSS why those same
people bailed him?

For these reason I will not beg anybody to foward this
messege to his/her contacts.
But if u are a real muslim
you should let other
muslims know about
unbelievers plan to
destroy us and our
Religion. May Allah help Muslim Ummah!

Nurudeen Mohammed is right not only Hayford but our entirely Christians in general r ignorance about Islamic n accused them blindly. Could u imaging my pastor use to say eating poke is forbidden in Islam bcoz pig eat half of their prophet died body n so they hate pork meat, not knowing even Bible say we should not eat pork. My problem about my fellow Christians is that we don't find knowledge about God n other religious around us, we rely on our pastors to teach us wat is wrong n right in our religion n others which they doesn't even know our Bible well n they r telling us lies.when I was growing up they thought me that Jesus is de founder of Christianity n Mohammad is de founder of Islamic religion, but as I research n read both religious books all wat they was teaching r lies, de word Christians was first use in Antioch in 325 BC, which was an insult non Christians use to call followers of Christ. And in Quran(Islam) says this religion is not a new religion to Mohammed but to those past righteousness prophets, n it mentioned all Bible n Jewish prophets, n he said he is bringing it to perfection to his idol worshiping family.de Muslims leaders r better then our Christians leader coz they memorized all inside their book n also small from Bible n they used that to challenged our pastors in debate. We should also start to find knowledge of others religious books n stop our envy against their religion. Everyday America used drones n kill Afghanistans, Pakistanis civilians, r they not human? We see news every day Israel's has killing thousands of Palestinians, rapping their wife's n occupying their lands n sizing their properties, wat did Christian leaders worldwide r saying about that? That really shows that we Christians r hypocrisy n it also project our weakness as true religion. I believed there is God but I doupt de religion that I inherited from my parents. We keep leaning I hope we can get solution to world problems.

Islam just like any other Abraham religion is a club of Damocles raised over the head of mankind.
Islam once saved world civilization from extinction during the period of the Christian inquisition, which is even more cruel than today's Islamic fundamentalism when some Islamic priest intervened to save a lot of Greek literature which the world had to use of reference during the period of Renaissance. Under the Christian inquisition lead by the Catholic Church it was girls and women who suffer most. Thus the case is the same under Islamic fundamentalism.
The cruel nature of Islam was demonstrated when Muslims in India sided with the British colonial master and just after India's independence want to have a nation of their own. A nation that will be used to undermine the socioeconomic development of India. Those Islamic terrorist acts which were carried out by Muslims in India in 1948 assisted and financed by Britain and her allies are no different from what took place in the covert and overt acts of NATO to Balkanize Yugoslavia, thought the warning has been sounded by European humanist years ago that the Balkanization of Yugoslavia will be fraught with danger and lost of human life.
The same European humanist sounded the alarm that the expansion of the Abraham religions in the Pacific will bring with it grave consequences. The war between Christian and Muslims in the Pacific is there for all to see.
Let is likely that the same alarm has been sounded about African in whole and Western Africa since before the arrival of the Abram religions the people have their own religion. The issue was brought to the fore by the novels of Chenua Achebe "Things Fall Apart" and "The Arrow of God".
Muslims in Algeria as well conspired with the French colonial authorities to prevent the independence of that country. After Algeria's independence they form the vast majority of Algerian dissidents in Europe and elsewhere. That was also well elaborated in the novel of Ali Baktar "Queen of Spade" and "Earth Quark". Thus with the harm done by Abraham religions to people all over the world I am writing with sighting authority.
The came the myth of the occupation of Afghanistan by the Soviet Union and the call was made to all Muslims to defend that country against Communist Infidels. When the real fact was to protect the opium farms and trade which the soviets were dismantling by offering Afghan by subsidies to and ready market for Afghans rice.
The Mujaheddin and Taliban were cannon folders that NATO used in its proxy war in Nagorna Karaback in Azerbaijan. The war in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya to expand Islam in Africa which is supported by the rulers Saudi Arabia and other Gulf monarchies.
It is on record that fascism, racial segregation and apartheid were advocated by priests of the Abram religions, thus they pretend to love Africans in words, but in deeds in their countries they say we are animals less than their dogs. It is also true that just as Muslims were used against national liberation movements in Africa so was the Christian clergy and their gullible followers, and the case is not different today. The matter is no different in Ukraine were the Catholic Church is in the forefront of enslavement of Ukraine by Western Europe.
The Abram religions are a club of Damocles over the head of mankind.

Comment to:HYPOCRITES!!! READ YOUR BIBLE

i have gone thru both the verses mentioned by NANA OBIBINI.My observations are as below.I find NANA OBIBINI deliberately distorted bible verses to justify islamic madness! My comments first two bible verse as below.
Ezekiel 9:6 "Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women . - This God Almighty says to Prophet of Israel, Ezkiel about judgement on God's Nation of Israel bcz of their sins. He is a just God punishing His chosen Nation and people. It has no relevance here.

2)Isaiah 13:16 "Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished." - This speak about God's judgement own Babylon for their grave sins, which God did implement subsequently, well recorded in history.

All subsequent verses are God's own words, the law given to Israel. And it is well recorded in history how God subsequently fulfilled all those in the history of Israel and jewish people. Quoting those verses have no relevance here. It shows criminal intentions to whitewash grave sins committed by Boko Haram and to mislead general public. I suggest every one to read those Bible verses to understand it in its right perspective. Please read verses before and after so as to understand the matter quite well. It is quite clear from islamic books that what Boko Haram does is exactly in line with teachings of Prophet and islam's holy books. I believe Boko Haram is following islam in letter and sprit.

Nurudeen, how will you relate the statement by Hayford to Sura 9:123 which syays "o ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty. Sura 48:29 says "Mohammed is God's apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers but merciful one another. If you need more quotations i will provide to buttress Hayford. Some commentators from Muslims already are reigning insults on Hayford. It is sad.

No wonder ... am even afraid of wat I want to say... indoctrinated, clothed and bathed in violence. Useless religion that wul not give peace to the world. Observe most of this so cald moslem states... annoying to hell with u and your terrorist islam. You profess peace but are rotten to the core of evil and violence... annoying

Nurideen's reaction and response is worse than the action of boka haram,if translated into action. You have peace in your response if your intention is to repair the damage done to Islam. You are defending an isolated case of boka raram and you have failed the to look at the wider scope of damage done in the name of Islam or Allah: is that peace or anarchy? Look at what Islam has done in Syria,Mali, Egypt, Libya, and the butchering of the soldier in London: add these to the Nigerian issues and you would see your defenselessness in this matter. No one blames Hindus or Sikhs because they have done no harm. Ask yourself why Islam is an affront in some areas!!! See what is happening in Jima/Maamobi and Marina zango/zongo and you would speak the truth that, violence is the order of the day:it's like the cobra telling you my name has been tarnished but I've not done bad things. You can only be deceived if you do not know the snake but only read about it. Ask those who live in their midst and they would tell you practical experiences.
