OYOGist.com has learned that former Nigerian Senator, activists, and author Comrade Shehu Sani have reportedly expressed his disgust over the high level of religious fanaticism in Nigeria.
The Revolutionary Writer and Ex-Senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial district in the 8th Assembly, on a tweet this Sunday morning asserted that Nigeria was never mentioned in the Holy Bible/Quran yet they surpass Ethiopia and Egypt whose names were mentioned in the Bible in hatred, Intolerance, and religious fanaticism.
Shehu wrote on a tweet, and I quote; “Egypt and Ethiopia are the Only African Countries mentioned in the Holy Qur’an and the Bible. They embraced Islam & Christianity long before Our ancestors did. We surpassed them in intolerance, hatred, and fanaticism in the name of religion. Why are they like that & We are like this”.
Shehu is also among the very Few Nigerian Politicians who use their Social Media Pages to preach against Injustice, bad government, terrorism, Kaduna massacre, insurgency, and other issues that have to do with the state of affairs of the country.
