See How Nigerians Reacted to failed Arrest of Apostle Suleiman

Deeply divided across ethnic and religious lines, Nigeria is a Country where statements from leaders can easily lead to massive breakdown in the system.

Islam versus Christianity is of one of the most polarising pillars of conflict in the nation (except for the South West).

So when a man of God gives the go-ahead to his congregation to kill Fulani herdsmen (read Muslims), who have been butchering the people of Southern Kaduna (known to be mostly Christians), expect that Nigerians will not speak with one voice on the matter. Because when it comes to religion, even ethnicity takes a back seat.

In case you were on a bush when it all went down, here’s the backstory.
