People have short memories! He was nicknamed Tunde back then because he was seen as a Lagos errand boy. While his kinsmen were being deported from Lagos under Fashola, Ngige was busy defending the APC, leading many to say he had abandoned his heritage to become a Tunde. It’s the same script, just a different year trading regional dignity for a seat at the center.

@Beejaysport Imam Shuraym. The rhythmic cadence of his recitation stays with you much longer after it ends. He makes praying behind him a pleasure. May Allah bless him in retirement.

This narrative is both dishonest and hypocritical, and it rests on a fundamental distortion of what mission schools actually were. First, these were not public or neutral institutions. They were denominational schools (Anglican, Baptist, Roman Catholic, etc.) founded, funded, and governed by church missions with the explicit purpose of advancing Christianity. As James Johnson himself put it, their aim was to place students “under Christian guardianship.” Attendance therefore came with clear expectations: participation in church services, Sunday school, and other religious activities organized jointly by the school and the mission. This was not "crude conversion"; it was the condition of entry. No religious body is required to abandon its own doctrine to accommodate those who freely choose to enter its institutions. This arrangement was no different from Muslim Qur’anic schools already operating in Lagos. Gbadamosi records that by 1893 there were about 60 such schools in the city, where Arabic and Islamic studies were central, and the Qur’an functioned as the core reading text just as the Bible did in Christian mission schools. These schools predate the mission schools in Yorubaland. Yet there is no record of them admitting children of traditional religious practitioners without conversion to Islam. Still, no one describes them as “oppressive” for remaining faithful to Islam. The real issue was not religion, but curriculum. In 1889, the Board of Education recommended that Muslim schools incorporate the teaching of the Three R’s—Reading, wRiting, and aRithmetic—in English, which formed the foundation of Western education at the time. For those that felt the mission schools were tools of Christian advancement, the realistic route should have been to implement this plan instead of asking the mission schools to remove their Christian character. That demand was never realistic. Additionally, the Education Ordinance of 1887 already protected religious freedom: no child in a government-aided school could be compelled to receive religious instruction against the wishes of their parents, nor be forced to remain present during such lessons. School inspectors like W. Howell later observed that only a small number of Muslim parents exercised this right, likely due to lack of awareness, not mission policy. On the question of Government Muslim Schools, the record is equally clear. Despite calls for such schools in Ibadan and Ijebu-Ode, Edward Wilmot Blyden, after consulting leading Lagos Muslims, advised against expansion. This is not for religious reasons. Rather, it is because qualified teachers were unavailable. Under the agreed arrangement, the colonial government would only fund teachers who met professional standards. That was why the teaching staff for the schools were recruited from Sierra Leone, where such expertise existed. It was precisely this shortage, especially of instructors competent in Arabic and Islamic studies, that led Blyden to discourage rapid expansion. He suggested either sending children to Lagos, or recruiting more teachers from Sierra Leone.The colonial government chose neither. This failure had nothing to do with Christian discrimination and everything to do with administrative inertia. To repackage this history as “forced conversion” is not only false; it is another ideologically motivated revisionism, and it is not new. Similar claims were later weaponized against Chief Obafemi Awolowo by some religious extremist who accused his government of discriminating against Muslim schools and took him to the Willinks Commission. Needless to say that they where they were roundly debunked and disgraced. So, no amount of recycling or sensationalism will make them true.

This would be a hilarious take, if not that it brings back trauma for millions.  This , depicted here is an example of crude conversion tactics by any means necessary. Fair or Foul.  Millions of Muslim students faced this indignity. Either forced to change their names or convert to get admission into schools.  Or being beaten like this, for not having SOP's and Bibles, even when the teachers knew quite well, they were Muslims. Nigeria's Minister of State for Finance, (from Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State). Jubril Kuye, had to add Martins to his name. Hence Jubril Martins- Kuye. Former Attorney-General of Federation, Rashidi Akinjide had to become Richard Akinjide. Former Oyo Governor (Lamidi Adesina), had to shorten his name as Lam Adesina. Former Attorney-General of Federation, Prince Bola Ajibola, (from Owu,Abeokuta) had to remove his Muslim name "AbdulJabbar", to have a chance to go to school. Former AGF, (from Ikenne) Kehinde Sofola, said in a 2004 interview, in Guardian newspapers, he and his twin brother were beaten for not coming to Sunday School in Ikenne Methodist School, despite knowing they were Muslims, prompting protests from their father, Chief Sanni Sofola. Chief MKO ABIOLA's famous case of near conversion at BBHS Abeokuta is well-known, but for the insistence of his father Salawu Abiola, who resisted vehemently. In fact, the current Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo, in a September 2017  interview with Sun newspaper told journalists, MKO Abiola wasn't made a prefect in BBHS, because he was Muslim, and only Christians were made prefects as a matter of policy. This wasn't a new issue in the 1930's though. As at the 1890's, the clear marginalization of Muslims concerned Lagos Governor Gilbert Carter, who mobilised American-Liberian Pan-Africanist, Edward Wilmot-Blyden, as Agent of Native Education, with one of his mandates being Muslim education. Others included Inspector of Education, the famous Henry Rawlinson Carr, Sierra-leonan Harun Rachid, and Henry Abdullah Quilliam, the Ottoman representative at the commmissioning of the famous Shitta-Bey mosque in 1894, appealing to Lagos Muslims to send their children to school. That approval was commenced in 1896, with first Government Muslim school , led by Imam Idris Animashaun.  Edward Wilmot Blyden found a method where Muslims could be taught, 3 R's Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Geography and History alongside Islamic studies without fear of conversion. Only two other Government Muslim Schools were established later. In Epe and Badagry, despite demands across  the hinterlands. The project was stopped in 1926, when colonial government cancelled the Muslim schools and told them to go to Missionary schools.  Some Graduates of that Government Muslim schools, formed the Young Ansarudeen Society.  This included names like Boonyamin Gbajabiamila, A.A Cole, Buraimoh Davies, Raji Onitiri,Kadara Savage, A.L Carew,Buhari Aka, Tiamiyu Sanni King and others.

@YusufAsunmogejo The man really wrote rubbish. He is clearly an Islamaphobe. He probably never thought he would attain a prominent position like INEC Chairman. No amount of money he was paid could have justified the brief he wrote.

I am still gathering evidence on this sudden Northern clamour for Amupitan’s removal. Is it paid propaganda or is there actually an iota of truth in what they are saying? The coordinated nature of the attacks in recent days makes it look like a sponsored hatchet job, but I don’t want to conclude just yet. I am watching very closely.

@og_beeping101 You didn't see the way the Ede King, his son Ashiru and their subjects were dressed in the film? Islam is not and has never been the problem in Yorubaland. The problems are the eru eebo and eru yibo among you. Those who betray the alajobi for their Christian faith.

This is even more ridiculous. Students attend Arabic and Islamic institutes. They go on to learn trades of further their education in tertiary institutions. There are thousands of examples like this. Professor Ishaq Oloyede, former VC UNILORIN and JAMB Registrar took this path. I am curious about "transferable" skills of those that learnt French, German or Chinese. This is the kind of micro-aggression common among you Yoruba Nationalists. When one insists you are mere religious activists hiding under ethnic consciousness. They will say we are doing too much. Do you ask this of those who went to Theology school? Which transferable skills do they get from there
Ìfẹ́ṣọlá@kootujirian

This Comparison is dishonest. Students at the Goethe-Institut, Alliance Française, or Confucius Institute learn a language alongside formal education or a profession. What’s being criticized here is a system in which children spend 10-15 years memorizing texts they can’t interpret, with no transferable skills, no certification, and no economic pathway. Learning Arabic isn’t the issue. Educational neglect is. If, after years of “study,” someone can’t hold a basic conversation in the language or function outside rote recitation, that’s not language education; it's a waste of time and resources

As my episode yesterday revealed, under the guise of spreading Christianity and establishing churches, the Mossad and CIA are infiltrating countries. It’s both a historical and present fact. They are also engaged in global trafficking.
James Wood 武杰士@commiepommie

🇨🇳✝️China detains Pastor Ezra Jin, leader of Beijing’s Zion Church, a large unregistered Christian network that spread across multiple provinces and online after being shut down in 2018. Zion Church operated outside China’s legal registration system, refusing to join the state-recognised Christian council that oversees churches nationwide. While freedom of belief is protected in China, unregistered religious organisations are illegal because they fall outside transparency, oversight and accountability laws. Ezra Jin’s network grew into one of the largest underground congregations in the country, raising funds, preaching online and expanding without approval, something no government would permit indefinitely. China allows all faiths, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Taoism, but none are allowed to become politically or financially powerful enough to rival the state. In the West, churches can become megacorporations: tax-exempt, massively funded and politically influential, lobbying governments, shaping policy and amassing billions in untaxed donations. But just because churches run freely in the West doesn’t mean every nation should follow that path. Western media are portraying Ezra as a victim, ignoring the fact that he knowingly broke the law. He wasn’t punished for his faith, but for operating outside the rules that every religion in China must follow. China’s system simply prevents religion from becoming a tool of power. It doesn’t fear Christianity; it fears corruption and manipulation hiding behind it.

I like this! Let’s also use our platform to support Muslims in the SW who want to practice their religion in peace but get denied the opportunity to. We cannot cherrypick advocacy for religious tolerance and freedom.
Arojinle@arojinle1

The Kwara State government @followKWSG should look into this madness. Nigeria is a secular state. There's no state where one shouldn't be free to practice their religion in peace. This madness won't stop until some people get jailed.

Extremist voices among South West Muslims and Christians understand that there are clear lines that must not be crossed. Mosaic and Sharia laws are alien to South West Nigeria. Yoruba society's desire life, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence . Intolerance should stay where it is welcomed, not Yorubaland.
