hyper gig: A dumb post attracting silly comments...av an insight into the man's life nd u will know he was both a xtian nd moslem all rolled into on3..how can he possibly sink a ship with the crewmen inside...think twice

.
That s not how it happend. True, this man of God sank the bad book called "bible" into sea and he was blessed for that. What he did is that he orderd that everything be dropd into water and ship turn back with the crew. Though he paid the publishing company for everything. And he was blessed more for stopping anythng anti-Islam.

godello: Lord have mercy, this man is a devil, he had very bad intentions,thank God he failed in his bid to become the president of Nigeria. I wonder why he is been celebrated.

so he did it? And the wrath of the Almighty Jehovah descended upon him. That which he cherished most was taken from him. Jesus is Lord

The dude, M.K whatever is over celebrated to the extent of declaring public holiday and naming of institutions and stadium after him. Does anyone in the house remember the ITT issue? Listen to Felas album if u dont then you will agree with me that this man is not even worthy of mentioning not to talk of all this noise about him. what a 4k!

Abiola is a blood sucking Demon if I may use any adjective to qualified him.
I was brought up in d north (kaduna) when abiola died, We xtian in d north celebrated his died because all d religion crisses by then, He was among the sponsorers,
Abiola and others muslims fanatics were sponsoring some muslims fanatics then to be patronising xtian books shops to buy Bibles, after goten d bibles, they would burnt them, just to make sure they put an end to xtianity.
Doing zango cataf and many religion bloody crisses in kano, kaduna and some northern state in nigeria, Him and his counterpart were the catalys behind it, even this present Boko haram issue was Abiola and his counterpart egg that were incubeted by then, but unfurtunately d egg was alredy atched and nurssing by some another muslims terorrist just to distebilise GEJ and to make a seperation of xtians from d north.

PeterKbaba:

God bless you, most nigerians are ignorant of the truth... they are so suked in tribal hatred, if what happened to abiola on june 12 happened to some of this people, what will they expect other tribes to do... Help them or support the military....... So are all this fools saying what Abacha a military tyrant did was good..... no wonder they did the same to Ojukwu and the fear in their heart for the hasusa wont dare them speak out in the open like the yorubas.

.
Hahaha, see fool oh. Ur papa didnt live to tell u that Great Ojukwu shook the whole world ? When he as a Lion came back from Abidjan, wasn't all ur fathers shaking with fear ? Goats. Even animals know say na mouth una get.

2mch:

Say Amen na, if dem born your mama well. Aro patient. . U dey fear?

You have issues.

I do not think it is true. A lot of logistic is involved
What happened to the crew? No alarm was raised
The owner of the ship, what happened that he kept quite?
Was the owner of the ship paid off?
The importer of the Bible what happened?
No international media covered the event of that degree?
The christian body, was also paid?

The truth about MKO is that he deserve nothing as a pedegree.

A man who set nigeria 50yrs backward in ITT embesslement.and his other multiple evils

Anyone who stand in nigeria and demand MKO to be celebrated is an evil man.
Tinubu is moving around about mko, cus they are birds of the same feathers.

Detongue: If realy he did it, then thank God he died.

bad belle

Timehin:

You rejoiced in a mans misfortune and also prayed that thunder should strike another.
So who's under dark influence?

Hmmmmn

Mr UmaRu: .

What he did is that he orderd that everything be dropd into water and ship turn back with the crew. Though he paid the publishing company for everything.

Just as Obama has been blessed for ordering that some Qur'ans found in Afghanistan be burnt and lest i forget, the American soldiers that pissed on a qur'an they found on a Taliban soldier just before they shot him

He is criminal in nature. But Nigerians never saw that,they are concernd wit the peanut he droped on their table.

Who ever posted this falsehood on Nairaland needs the help of a sychiatrist. I'm so ashamed of many of my fellow youths who are swift in attacking, vilifying and complaining about our leaders, but here, i've found out that most of them are far worse than these leaders we attack. Rather than be positively creative, we spend our time telling petty lies, passing fake stories around, preaching hatred, and advancin ethinic, religious and sectional hatred. Is there any other better way to destroy a nation than what we are doing in NairaLand? When did we degenerate to this shameful level? May God have mercy on us! By Ferdinand Ekeoma.

queensmith:

the journalists claims in the article don't really prove that it's true. I doub't he will have had the authority to sink ships since someone will have been shipping those bibles (at a very high cost) to make some sort of profit. We should at least know where the reported ships are or have heard the owner of the ships complain?

Its called GIDEONS BIBLE ,its blue in colour and potable cos it contains only the new testament and some books of old testament.Its didtributed free by a christian ngo and was very much available in Nigeria in MID 80s.We heard it then.It was part of the various rackets Abiola did with IBB but was long forgotten.They fought Bishop Idahosa too.

You see you don't do such a horrible thing and go free.Jehovah is a living God and his spiritual son is alive too.Just reflect on the repercusion of what he did.A very wealthy business mogul/presidential candidate/aclaimed winner died in prison like a rat.Wealthy and beautifull wife killed like an antelope.I don't rejoice in the death of any human being but I,m just trying to point out that we should not do what angels and demons fear to do.Let's forbid evil and speak against it anywhere we see it

[b][/b]Are you minding them, this Igbo people are just causing hate and bigotry in this country

PLS IF YOU WANT TO COMMENT LEAVE OUT THE WORDS IGBO PEOPLE.WE HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO YOU,THE BOKO HARAM KILLINGS OF THE IGBO COMMUNITY IS ENOUGH.MOREOVER IF ACTUALLY ABIOLA SANK A SHIP FULL OF THE BIBLE,HE WILL ANSWER TO THE ALMIGHTY THE REASON(S) HE DID THAT AND IF HE IS NOT CONVINCING ENOUGH, I PITY HIM FOR THE QUARELL HE WILL HAVE WITH GOD.

alj harem: 1. I wonder how someone that was contesting in a mixed religion country was able to sink Bibles without much controversies

2. Was Abiola the president or in authority to order such ?

3. What year did Abiola do that ? knowing full well he was in prison

1) Did contesting for election prevent Buhari from his fanaticism


2) You know he was a very popular and powerful civilian,and again backed by IBB.He was more than being in the corridors of power.Those containers were confiscated and sunk in the ocean then he paid for the cost.He just did not want the bible to circulate thus Jehovah made him go out of circulation.Its unfortunate although.


3) He was yet to contest then.That where his problem started.

When were u born-for asking the third question

BetaThings:

Yet Abiola Bookshop was selling Bible!
So why was John the Baptist killed? For what sin did Jehovah punish him?

Bookshop run by Kola Abiola or him?Let's not go there cos I will surely win you there.

Gideon bible was a free bible so hundred containers could circulate in a month.A hundred bible in a bookshop may take years to sell

Death was kind to MKO Abiola walahi. He has got to be the most overhypped Politician of all time.
I don't know how authentic the story of him sinking a shipload of bibles but I wont put it beyond the man. It is on record that the man stormed out when his attempt to smuggle sharia laws into the Nigerian constitution of 1978 was strongly resisted, he did not append his signature because of it. The man was seriously fanatical no doubt.

It is true. A military guy that participated in the sinking of that very ship told me one on one. So it aint a fake rumour.

alj harem:

From 1972 until his death Moshood Abiola had been conferred with 197 traditional titles by 68 different communities in Nigeria, in response to the fact that his financial assistance resulted in the construction of 63 secondary schools, 121 mosques and churches, 41 libraries, 21 water projects in 24 states of Nigeria, and was grand patron to 149 societies or associations in Nigeria. In this way Abiola reached out and won admiration across the multifarious ethnic and religious divides in Nigeria. In addition to his work in Nigeria, Moshood Abiola was a dedicated supporter of the Southern African Liberation movements from the 1970s and he sponsored the campaign to win reparations for slavery and colonialism in Africa and the diaspora. Chief Abiola, personally rallied every African head of state, and every head of state in the black diaspora to ensure that Africans would speak with one voice on the issues.

He actualy read bibles and books on Mandela,s travails in prison.A friend that worked with Amnesty International said this.

Nigerian rumours are at least 65 percent true

WHY MUSLIMS ARE VIOLENT AND INTOLERANT OF OTHERS “O believers make war on the infidels (non-Muslims) who dwell around you, let them find harshness in you” - Quran 9:123
“When the sacred months are over, kill the unbelievers wherever you find them” – Quran 9:5
“Fight them until unbelief is no more and Allah's religion reigns supreme” - Q 2:193
“Fight against those of the book (Christians and Jews) as believe neither in Allah nor in the last day…and do not embrace the true faith” - Q 9:29
“Fighting is obligatory for you (Muslims), even if you dislike it” - Q 2:216
“Do you think you would enter Paradise before Allah knows the men who fought hard and steadfast?” – Q 3:142
“Believers take neither Jews nor Christians for friends or helpers” - Q 5:51
“Let not the believers take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers.” - Q 3:28.
“Our Prophet (Mohammed), ordered us to fight you (non-Muslims) till you worship Allah alone or pay us Jizyah (extortion) in submission…Whoever amongst us is killed as a martyr shall go to Paradise…and whoever survives shall become your master”– Sahih Bukhari 4:53:386
“Fight in the name of Allah and in the way ofAllah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…” - Sahih Muslim 19:4294
These violent injunctions in Islamic scriptures (Quran and Hadith) clearly promote hostility and aggression towards non-Muslims, and largely explain Muslim proclivity to religious violence as evident from the incessant terrorist attacks – over 13,000 since 9/11 and counting.
The violent injunctions can be traced to Islam's violent origins. Unlike the founders of other major religions who mostly relied on non-violent persuasion to win converts, Islam's founder “prophet” Mohammed used violence to forcefully impose his intolerant creed in Arabia:
“I (Mohammed) have been commanded (by Allah) to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, and believe that I am the Messenger and in all (Islam) that I have brought. Whoever says this will save his property and life from me.” – Sahih Bukhari 9:84:5, Sahih Muslim1:31
This Hadith in which Mohammed clearly admits his motivation for violence was to forcefully enthrone Islam, is contrary to the Taqiyya (deception) propaganda Muslims would have we infidels believe – that Mohammed and early Muslims only fought in self defense. Another Hadith drives home the same point of unprovoked Muslim aggression:
“Our Prophet (Mohammed), ordered us (Muslims) to fight you (non-Muslims) till you worship Allah alone or pay us Jizyah (extortion) in submission…Whoever amongst us is killed as a martyr shall go to Paradise…and whoever survives shall become your master” – Bukhari 4:53:386
The Quran particularly Surah Tawba providesfurther evidence that Muslims were the clearaggressors:
“When the sacred months are over, kill the unbelievers wherever you find them” – Quran 9:5
“O believers make war on the infidels (non-Muslims) who dwell around you, let them find harshness in you” - Quran 9:123
“Fight against those of the book (Christians and Jews) that do not believe in Allah or in the last day…and do not embrace the true faith” - Quran 9:29
“Prophet (Mohammed), make war on unbelievers and hypocrites, and deal ruthlessly with them” - Quran 66:9
No amount of Taqiyyaspin can misconstrue as self defense the above Quranic verses which clearly enjoin unprovoked warfare against non-Muslims. The violent injunctionsin Surah Al-Tawba (Quran Chapter 9) are particularly important because this was the last portion of the Quran dictated by Mohammed.
Under the Islamic concept of abrogation (Nasikh), these violent “sword verses” (Ayat al-Sayf) in Surah 9 supersede any earlier seemingly peaceful verse. To facilitate unrestrained violence against non-Muslims, Mohammed begins the Surah by unilaterally annulling all treaties:
“Freedom from obligation (is proclaimed) from Allah and His messenger toward the infidels with whom you have made treaties”– Quran 9:1
Mo's violent doctrine was at variance with the prevailing culture of religious tolerance among pre-Islamic Arabs, hence early Muslims were initially reluctant to fight untilMo' coerced and threatened them:
“Believers, what is the matter with you, thatwhen you are asked to fight in Allah's cause you linger and cling to this life?...If you do not fight, Allah will punish you sternly...” - Quran 9:38
“Fighting is obligatory for you (Muslims), even if you dislike it” - Quran 2:216
Mo' further threatened that only Muslims who fought will make it to the Islamic heaven:
“Do you think you (Muslims) would enter Paradise before Allah knows the men who fought hard and steadfast?” – Quran 3:142
Allah's Apostle (Mohammed) said, "Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords” – Sahih Bukhari 4:52:73
The initial reluctance of early Muslims to fight is further evidence they weren't under physical attack. If they were, Mo' wouldn't have needed to coerce and threaten them todefend themselves. Or entice them to violence with promises of heavenly rewards (Quran 4.99, 3:157, 9:111).
Prior to Mohammed's Islam; pagans, Christians, Jews, Magians, Sabeans and otherreligious groups lived harmoniously in Arabia, and there were no religious wars. The Sirat Rasul Allah (Islam's official biography of Mohammed) informs us there were even Christian images of Jesus and Mary in the pagan Kaaba, which Mo' later expropriated for his new religion.
The pre-Islamic Arabs offered Mohammed the same tolerant religious accommodation if he would reciprocate and respect their ancestral religious traditions. Initially Mo' agreed, culminating in the “revelation” of the infamous satanic verses in which the Quran endorsed pagan Arab deities – Al-Lat, Uzza, and Manat. He later reneged on the agreement as the megalomanic prophet wannabe could not share the religious limelight with over 300 Arab deities and other pre-existing religious groups.
Subsequently Mo' introduced religious violence to Arabia when in Medina he embarked on forced Islamization after 12 frustrating years of almost fruitless preaching in Mecca, during which he only gathered a handful of mostly disaffected lowlifes as followers.
In Mecca, Mo' constituted himself into a societal nuisance by repeatedly insulting and denigrating pre-Islamic Arab traditions. The Meccan Arabs tolerated these insults while Mo's rich influential sugar mummy wife and uncle were alive, but later responded with an economic boycott of Mo' and his cult members. This pauperized themcompelling Mo' and his followers to migrateto Medina.
Herein lies the so-called “expulsion” of early Muslims by supposedly intolerant pagan Arabs, which Muslim propagandists deliberately misrepresent as pagan Arabs forcibly evicting Muslims from Mecca.
There was no forced ejection; on the contrary some of the pagan Meccans opposed the migration of their relatives who were Muslims. In spite of the alleged “oppression”, many of Mo's converts were reluctant to leave Mecca, and the “prophet” had to threaten Muslims who didn't want tomigrate with hellfire:
“…Hell shall be their home, an evil fate; except the helpless men women and children who have no strength or means to migrate” – Quran 4:97-98
The cock & bull yarn about a spider spinningweb across the entrance of cave in which Mo' hid from pursuing Meccans, is obvious falsehood intended to glorify the “prophet” with an escape miracle, and demonize the Meccan pagans as violently intolerant thereby justifying Mohammed's subsequent violent aggression.
Even today Muslims deploy similar bogus propaganda when they falsely claim Jews drove out Palestinians to establish Israel. Palestinians left voluntarily at the instigation of neighbouring Arabs so that the invading Arab armies would have a clearkilling field for exterminating Jews without hurting their fellow Arabs in Palestine.
See: http://www.palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=157&doc_id=1102
After leaving Mecca in frustration, Mo' and his followers relocated to Medina where he had no means of livelihood but attack and rob trade caravans. It was this banditry that provoked the first battle of Islam (Badr) when the pagan Meccans dispatched a military contingent to protect one of their trade caravans.
Islamic scriptures and historical traditions document over 70 battles during Mohammed prophetic career. Most of these were Ghazawa (raids) on non-Muslim communities. Only about 2 or 3 of these, notably the battles of Uhud and Khandaq could be described as defensive. Even these limited attacks by pagan Arabs were in response to incessant Muslim raids, just as the much vilified Crusades were a response to Muslim aggression in the Christian holy land.
Raids are of course offensive, not defensive military actions:
The Messenger of Allah (Mohammed) raided the Banu Mustaliq (pagan Arab tribe) while they were unaware and their cattle were having a drink at the water. He killed those who fought and imprisoned others... - SahihMuslim 019:4292; Bukhari 3:46:717.
The apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the raid of Hunain…They defeated them and took them captives - Sunan Abu Dawud 2:2150; Sahih Muslim 8:3432.
The Messenger of Allah besieged the people of Taif, but did not achieve victory – Sahih Muslim 19:4393
Allah's apostle (Mohammed) reached Khaibar at night. It was his habit, that whenever he reached an enemy at night, he would not attack them till it was morning. When morning came, the Jews came out with their spades and basket (farm implements). When they saw the prophet, they were surprised and said, “O God! It's Mohammed and his army”. The prophet shouted, “Allahu Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed…” – Sahih Bukhari 5:59:510
Note the expression - It was his habit - in the last quoted Hadith (Bukhari 5:59:510) describing Mo's sneak cowardly attack on defenceless Khaibar Jews who were proceeding to farm in the morning.
Mohammed and his murderous gang were in the habitof mounting surprise attacks on defenceless non-Muslims. The surprise attack on the Banu Mustaliq pagan Arabs was similarly unprovoked and cowardly (Sahih Muslim 19:4292; Bukhari 3:717).
During such raids the defeated non-Muslim men were killed, with the women and children taken captive:
“The people of Khaibar came out fleeing on the roads. The Prophet had their men killed, their children and woman taken as captives”- Sahih Bukhari 5:59:512 .
Captured women were then raped:
“Those (Muslims) who restrain their sexual desire except with their wives and female captives/ slaves are free from blame” – Quran 70:29-30
“Successful are believers…who restrain their sexual desire except with their wives and female captives / slaves, for these are lawful to them” – Quran 23:1-6.
“Forbidden, to you (Muslim men) are married women, except your female captives / slaves” Quran 4:24
Several of Mohammed's wives and concubines (notably Rayhanna, Safiya & Juwairiya) were captive women whose husbands / male relatives were killed by Mo' and his marauding gang. The Quran endorsed this rape of female captives and slaves by Islam's philandering “prophet”:
Prophet (Mohammed), we (Allah) have madelawful to you your wives, female captives / slaves, daughters of your paternal and maternal uncles, daughters of your paternal and maternal aunts, any believing woman who “offers” herself to you…Q 33:50
Other captives were sold into slavery:
"Allah's apostle (Mohammed) sent Sad Zayd Al-Ansari with some captive women to Najd.He sold them for horses and weapons" - Sahih Muslim 19:4345
The wealth of the defeated non-Muslims was looted:
“Enjoy the good and lawful booty you (Muslims) have taken in battle. Fear Allah, heis forgiving and merciful.” - Quran 8:69
If the loot was “lawful”, why do Muslims need forgiveness?“Allah made booty lawful for believers.” - Tabari VII:81
Like thieves elsewhere, the Muslim brigands sometimes quarreled over sharing of booty, prompting Mo's alter ego, Allah to proclaim:
“Say, the loot belongs to Allah and his apostle (Mohammed). Therefore fear of Allahand end your disputes” – Quran 8:1
If the Muslim wars in the early formative stages of Islam were in self defense, why did the aggression continue after defeating the pagan Meccans and Mo' passed on?
Under the leadership of the four “rightly guided Caliphs” who were Mo's close associates and clearly understood his hegemonic agenda, aggressive jihadist expansion continued. Muslim Arabs later invaded and occupied North Africa, SouthernEurope, Indian subcontinent and other partsof the Middle East including Palestine, thereby sowing the seed of the current intractable Arab-Israeli conflict which is their favorite excuse for terrorism.
Not surprisingly, most of what we now know as the Muslim world was Islamized by violence, including here in Northern Nigeria.
Today Islam is the only religion that enforces or attempts to enforce its laws by violence – public floggings, limb amputations, stoning to death etc. It prescribes death penalty for Muslims who leave Islam and for Muslims who don't join congregational prayer:
The Prophet (Mohammed) said, 'If a Muslim changes his religion, kill him'– Sahih Bukhari4:52:260
The Prophet (Mohammed) said, "burn all those who do not leave their houses for prayer, burn them alive inside their homes." – Sahih Bukhari 1:11:626
Islam's numerous violent injunctions brutalize Muslim mentality such that Muslims are quite comfortable with forms of violence that we infidels find revolting. Hence terrorism, honor killing, stoning to death, forced conversion, killing or threatening of ex-Muslims who leave Islam…all thrive in Dar ul Islam (Islamic world). Not to forget the incessant religious violence here in Nigeria's Islamic north.
From the foregoing historical and scriptural evaluation of Islamic violence, it is obvious that Bin Laden, Al-Qaeda and other Islamic terrorists are indeed true Muslims. The so-called moderate Muslims are those who are either not aware of the vicious dark side of their bloodthirsty hate cult; or whose innate good conscience and humanity has not been overwhelmed by the Islamic imperative to murderous violence.
Other “moderate” Muslims are silent Islamist sympathizers who lack the courage or means to indulge in jihadist terror. Many of our compatriots up here in Nigeria's Islamic North fall into this category as evident from the popularity of Bin Laden car stickers, posters and almanacs, as well as the recent Pew study revealing most Nigerian Muslims (54%) support Osama bin Laden.
The figure would be much higher among northern Muslims. It will be recalled that some northern Muslims even jubilated publicly after 9/11. So we can expect more Umar Farouk AbdulMuattallabs!!

May God punish all of u nailing this man and u shall many bad things shall be said after ur death. Why now and what what his position when the ship was sank was he NPA chairman or what.
He still remain the best man nigeria ever produced

godello: He is criminal in nature. But Nigerians never saw that,they are concernd wit the peanut he droped on their table.

Don't you know Nigeria and Nigerians again?Steal them dry,kill them ,but just make sure you drop some peanuts on the ground and it will be like opium to them.You will be their hero and they rename their wife or children after you

And while Abiola was supposed to be hating christians so much
He appointed Stanley Egbochukwu first as editor of Business Concord and later Dep Managing Director of Concord Newspaper Group
And Dimgba Igwe was Deputy Editor of Sunday Concord

Tribalism and religious bigotry do not allow us to see

naijaking1: On the surface the story looks unbelievable since MKO was not a naval officer. However, he could have ordered the bibles with a plan to destroy them in a dramtic fashion and win the hearts and minds of fellow muslim religious fanatics. The story is more about the intolerance of Islam, not just the action of MKO.
While christians preach peace, turning the other cheeck as often as possible[/b], not minding if their church, holy book and even lives are destroyed, the muslims are on a rampage. While Iran and other fanatic islamic groups officially destroy, ban, and violate the bible, christians really don't care. But start any false rumor about someone disrespecting koran tomorrow, you'll have a riot of islamic religious hooligans, that's Islam vs Christianity for you.

Using falsehood to convert people to christianity. Will God approve of that?

When the word infidel is used, they automatically assume that must be muslims talking
The Bible uses the word infidel

The Bible says women should not speak in the church, but christians say that muslims don't give voice to their women
Learn the truth to be set free

thaira: Abiola had a good heart and gave out. That said, he stole from those he was giving back to and only because it makes one respected in society before he realised he was popular enough to run for president. He dined with his killers, they did deals and shared profit together. That they turned back on him later is purely profit-oriented no matter that millions of Nigerians saw a messiah in him.

Real news are not gotten from the radio,Tv,or papers.You get real news from witnesses,friends thru calls etc Listen!! A northern intelectual said this and I was just looking at him.He said "we made Abiola what he is and gave him what he think is his,so why the noise about him"he said it disgustingly with annoyance and pride.I had a mixed feeling about it

if dis rumour is a lie, all dat are spreading it will not live long. Again if dis rumour is a lie, all who promote it will die in a painful crash (Amen)

Abiola may not be 100% saint. He wined and dined with the military boys of the day, IBB in particular. It was on record that he used his money, together with the Influence of Yaradua family in 1985 to prevail on King Fahad of Saudi to invite Tunde Idiagbon, Mamma Vasta (including others) for lesser hajj in Saudi so that the government of Buhari/Idiagbon can be toppled. This was done with a promised that after a while he (MKO) will contest for the presidential election. But of course, the self-styled, gap-tooth evil genius out-smarted him.

blancason: if dis rumour is a lie, all dat are spreading it will not live long. Again if dis rumour is a lie, all who promote it will die in a painful crash (Amen)

and if its true, what happens?

Why are we so dumb in this country, do people here know the size of a ship that two ships will be used to carry only bibles. When lies are perpetrated people jump on the band wagon stupidly. We have so many educated illiterates in this country, we lack logical reason rather we let sentiments reason for us. Abiola had so many Christians working for him. Has anybody ever heard any sort of discrimination against his companies not employing Christians or maltreating Christians in his employ. Some idiots claim he would have islamatised Nigerians if he was made president and Nigerians don't see it all has propaganda to justify injustice. If it happened wouldn't CAN have somehow been informed or wouldn't one or two pastors have made mention of this, at least the producers of this bible would have made it known to CAN that they were importing some bibles to Nigeria but the ship sank, at least some people would have being on ground to receive this ship in Nigeria and if it does not arrive they would have complained to CAN about the sabotage or are we saying the company that imported the bible is part of the sabotage too. Fools are already cursing a man that has being unjstly killed,a man whose imprisonment put pressure on the military to democratize. Agreed Abiola might have being corrupt but how many Nigerian are not and we're able to make as much impact on people's lives like he did, even soccer players and lover have said Nigerian football died with the man. The man might have being anything else but not a religious or ethnic bigot like we are on nairaland and i challenge anyone here to make a reference aside this nonsense post. No wonder Nigeria is like this too many people without a good head to reason. From the response to this post it is clear what will happen when some nairalanders become leaders. Reminds of a joke that when God made the world he gave the rest of the world just a few resources to sustain them, but to Nigeria he gave everything,when the rest of the world complained to God that he gave Nigeria almost everything, God said to them wait and see the kind of people I will put there. That explains everything

All you mentioned above is politics and human actions.Let us go deep into what makes a religion Godly or satanic.I'm sure u must have read a post here where someone sited reasons in koran why it is compulsory for moslems to murder women,children and men.He gave direct references of what Mohamed tought in Koran.But Jesus Christ tought love ,peace,kindness,sympathy and he did miracle because he was from God almighty Jehovah.But mohamed thought vengeance(reason why Shias can't do without revenge),hatred(reason why moslems hate non moslems),murder(reason why Islam is a religion of peace as claimed by Boko),peodophile(reason why mohamed married 9yr old Aisha and Yerima married 11yr old egyptian,reasons why northern girls suffer VIF or something-a disease where the virgina joins the anus and they become one hole.

Do a thorough comparison conscienciously and if your conscience is alive,you will know between Christ and Mohamed,who is satanic
