For those who are Christians and see nothing wrong with APC and their unrelenting appetite to retain power with the Muslim/Muslim ticket may you eyes be opened.

are the killings in the east signs that a Christian president will result in killings all over Nigeria? After all, all the leaders in the east are Christians and the killings have remained incessant.

Perhaps this was the will of God. After all, he’s a man of God. undecided

The criminals in the south east are not targeting Muslims and their religious leaders. Do you know how many Christians were killed in the north last year alone.

I'm still baffled as to why this post hasn't made it to FO yet? Someone opened a thread about this incident earlier in the morning. He's the same priest who's church was attacked in the Madalla Christmas day bombing in Madalla
