Igbo Muslims don suffer from their intolerant Ibo Christians.

Any Igbo Muslim that is facing marginalization in SE should come to Oduduwa land to seek asylum and we will grant it once because Odualand will be a sanctuary state where people co-exist in peace irrespective of religious divide.

We will make sure to build a big wall like those of Trump to seal out any troublesome Ibo Christian that want to migrate to Odua land. The tolerant among the Ibo Christians will be itted.

or come to the north...arewa...


and we allow them to build churches in arewa...abeg who do 5% people self

Have u heard any Igbo was killed because he was a Muslim. Or don't u have a tangible job dan to go around being a nuisance.
If my brother becomes a Muslim today I will disown him and have nothing to ever do with him, yes it'd my right, so if we decide to disown any efulefu without harming him in anyway or denying him any of his rights how is dat ur freaking business.

Worst of it all is dat a headslammer who doesn't allow non headslammers drink beer in his state will open his mouth and be taking rubbish

Igbo Muslims kee all of u there

YOUR MENTAL DEFICIENCY WILL KILLED ALL ATLANTIC OCEAN FISH ___IF THEY THROW IT INSIDE THE OCEAN

Armaggedon:
Nothing in the article remotely suggest persecution or denial of religious freedom. This look like a govt sponsored article that is being repeated on front-page.

Christians call themselves names on daily basis. Pentecostals are usually called ndi "uka akuluma aka" meaning a church of 'over clapping' people, sabatharians or Jews are mocked for always offering sacrifices along the road and even lot of nollywood movies showvCatholic church in bad light. The worst hit are traditional Igbos which some people including Muslims call idol worshippers. Infact some people just get up and burn idol regarded as people's place of worship but nobody complains about.

If you wear hijab and you're called a masquerade, it's normal. Swallow it! You can't bully a society into treating you specially.

Finally, this is a propaganda article. Those interviewed may not have taken it harshly but the abokis who wrote it.

forget..igbo is the the most worst neighbor anyone could have...my eye see fire...I was almost evicted from my house during nysc the day they know am a Muslim...the man regret renting the apartment to me ...useless tribes...make we see how biafrans go come

We don't need that shit

ablejesus26:
All this Igbo muslim ya all are talking about I am yet to see one,just one in reality.
Islam is strange to Igbo Nature,but notwithstanding an Igboman is free to be whatever he chooses as long as he doesn't troubles anyone.

free on Facebook to practice and on ur keyboard...na the same u go show am pepper....if Islam is strange to igbos,,, christainity was once strange to them too...before they come accept am.......I can't imagine the kind oppression we biafra go do if they get country

The kind of hate that is coming from the east. I bet if other ethnicities in Nigeria spew that kind of hate we will probably be at war now.

Atleast they don't go about killing people like your people will do in the name of religion. We have many non indigenous muslims in the east and religious have never occurred in the east unlike in the north and west where there is always religious war going on..

Will there be religious tolerance in Biafra when they secede? Or will Islam be banned in Biafra land?

I have never seen the so called Igbo muslims but If you wear hijab and you're called a masquerade in Igboland, it's normal. Swallow it! You can't bully a society into treating you specially.

Finally, this is a propaganda article. Those interviewed may not have taken it harshly and may be unaware that their reactions are being use for political goals.

racism and bigotry are enshrined in the article above, as I always say whenever this type of article comes out against Islam, I will also say it here, religion is personal, everyone is supposed to worship whatever pleases him or her without form of prejudice or racism

in as much we biliv religion takes one soul to his creator, one shouldn't bother about someone who choose to go to Devil in hell

The hypocrites who claim to have religious and cultural tolerance

PissfulProtester:
Igbos and intolerance....

If 60% of the Igbos are of same ideology other than the ideology of the remaining 40%,, The remaining 40% will never live in peace

Which one come be igbo Muslim again? Nothing wey person no go hear under Buhari government oooo,all this madness will end when this idiot vacate office. Israel is dealing with Hamas's and USA is dealing with ISIS terrorists, Islam should be the last thing any igbo man should think about oooo.

Shut your mumu mouth. Mumu like Kanu and IPOB. Let me explain it to you. Its not true. What ure saying doesn't make sense. Listen here, In Africa, most importantly Nigeria, most importantly South East, we are bedeviled by humanity's oldest problem, the fear of the other, people who are different from us? Your brother is Muslim and you are not muslim, instead of you to accept him and accept the fact that he has a right to worship how he chooses to worship, No, now you disown him because you are afraid of him, then you don't trust him, then you dislike him, then you hate him and then you are ready to use violence against him.....

Igbos and Fulanis are the two ethnic groups who messed up Nigeria, they are both highly intolerance when it comes to religion.

Armaggedon:
that is the argument. Any 'religion' that tells you how to dress, what to eat, what language to speak and who to associate with is not a just a religion but a culture. And should be treated as one.

You deserve a cold beer.

Most igbo will ignorantly judge someone base on their religion......so I am not always surprise....they always think that they are better than other tribes.....

Why is the comment above removed? Pissfulprotester comment did not in any way violate any Nairaland rules and it is just calling out the intolerant nature of the Ibo Christians.

We have always called out Northerners for the same offense and I don’t see you mods removing the comment about religious bigotry when it come to the Northerners.

Why the double standard when it concerns the Ibos? No matter how much one try to decipher it, removing that comment doesn’t make sense coz that guy violated none of the nairaland rules.

Religious bigotry should be a thing of the past, whether in the North or the South East. We should all condemn it instead of trying to censor one and condemn the other.

Forget about this media madness.

There's no such thing as Igbo Muslims.

I've lived all my life in the East, and I've never for oneday, met an Igbo Muslim.

Khd95:
igbos hate to realize that the religion they hate so much, their folks are embracing it en-mass

LOL

All these fulani cows in this nairaland self.

Cant you see this is pure propaganda.

How many igbos muslim have you met ?

Igbos dont even have time for northern muslim in the east na to de pursue their efulefu brothers who decide to head slam

funkekemi:
No room for Islam , when biafra comes ,I urge biafrans to a law prohibiting Islam

Thank you

If we allow them, they will oneday, tell us to stop drinking beers and destroy all our beer ts

Dummy. He should ask around, why is there such bias against Hausa/Fulani/Northerners in Igbo land.

From the perspective of the Biafran war and the Hausa/Fulani-on-Igbo massacres that led to it, any Igbo person who identifies as muslim is a cursed idìot.

This one has come up with his analogy from his empty head.


Igbos that has not been in the presidential power since the 80s mess up your country.


LOL

Igbos that has wealth distribution in almost every region in Nigeria messed up your country
Igbos that pay tax and do business in every region in Nigeria messed up your country

Seeing ur comment here tells more about Igbo people and their thinking. You better take it easy and see Islam as only religion of Almighty Allah. And nobody force you Islam so halt ostracizing those who follow the tru religion which is Islam.

Ibo are the most tribalistics and idiotics tribe in the world .

Armaggedon:

Then they should be called Muslims not hausa according to your myopic and bigot logic.

Islam can never thrive in igboland because Islam is a religious system of govt while igbos culturally practice republican system of govt. BTW the last thing igbos will want is a muslim population that will later terrorise them or their children. There's nothing wrong if 8gbos don't want Islam afterall in UAE countries there are no churches there.
