I got to know some of the RULES in Islam the day I was invited to
attend a book launch at Oshodi Central Mosque Lagos State. On that day, I
mistakenly sat with women, the IMAN quickly asked me to leave the women
CORNER and sit with men which I did. Islam forbids too much contact
with the opposite sex. In as much as we all have the right
to religion, personal thoughts and belief as enshrined in the
constitution, religion should be separated from the norms of the State
especially in a multi-religious country like Nigeria.
With the ways the president is embedding his religious tenets in
political affairs, it wouldn’t be wrong if anyone accuse him of
Islamizing the country. Government and leadership is guided by Public
Relations ethics, the president’s act of not shaking women on his
cabinet inauguration day is unethical in public administration.
The female ministers including the pretty Aisha Alhassan did not shake
him but male ministers shook hands with him. This act also violates
gender equality rights and makes women look inferior.
His aids
should be bold enough to correct him when he is wrong. Once again, the
president should separate politics from religion.

sorry if that has seem to you an insult but let get this straight
religion and politics in Nigeria can in no way be separated...tak e
for example you and i who as christians were have such rules in our
christian religion, would you refuse not to observe it, sincerely
speaking i would certainly observe so as to divert spiritual
consequences which are far more severe than that the general public
would issue towards you!

thing uv said ryt, buh u spoild it by writting "seperate religion from
politics"... Abortion is religiously wrong, gay marriage is also
religiously wrong, so you see, religion is one of the thing keeping the
nation nigeria from d rot of God and lust of the world... If na to shake
woman go make am go hell then i support him, NOTE am no muslim....

Eddy,
are you aware that the two women you are referring to are also muslims?
What proof do you have that it is the president that refuse to shake
the women and it is not these women that dont shake men? A simple google
search will show you several pictures of the President shaking Hand
with the opposite sex and if you are too lazy to do this search, I can
help you, just click this link: http:// www.nairaland.co m/2319857/ buhari-no-proble m-shaking-hands

Am a good follower of your online news and a good Christian. But I
disagree with this your post. Please always do your research and
background check very well before you post them here. It is very
shameful that you can post this here. #Iamjustsayingmy mind

@PRINCE:
thanks but it's my opinion, what i think should always be the best.
this post is not to either incite or excite any group. @aiki: i know.
it's not that i've not seen it. you all watched the inauguration of the
ministers on TV, it's a vivid example of what i'm talking about. some
people shouldn't be treated separately. @adeniran: i'm not anti-buhari. i
praise the president when he scores. i'm a social critic not anti-govt.
