@DrVic_Exotic; I know some of them like that. I have a priest friend who is Fulani. He is currently a chaplain in Rivers State. His parents are Muslims.

@JaqualineDXB; My Christian cousin wanted to attend St John seminary, he was denied admission because his parents weren’t Catholics. So how did this happen? His dad is not even a “Christian”.

@teamanempire; These are the ones who will tell me that Islam is the religion of peace and I will believe them. They practice what they’re preaching…. religious tolerance.

@Namoneyideyfind; I have seen something like this in oyo state about 2 yrs ago, The former chief Imam of the state had his son conferred as the youth coordinator of a CAC church there Baba came there with his wife to rejoice Imam was very happy sef

@AgbomUdoka; I know this guy. Part of his work was at St. Augustine’s Jalingo. Congratulations to him! He has a great father❤️

@Ibiye05; Religion is a personal race and everyone has the right to believe and worship his God in peace without being intimidated or intimidating others!
