Governor El-Rufai who like President Buhari are alleged to be well known Islamist fundamentalist, will use these new laws to minimise the growth of Christian religion, sending some Pastors to Prison and in effect driving Pastors, Evangelists away from the state and ensuring the dominance of the Islamic faith.
In 2003, President Buhari was alleged to have boasted that it is Allah’s will for him to ensure that Islam is spreed to corners of Nigeria. As it stands now, Hope For Nigeria is sure that the opportunity to Islamize Nigeria have presented itself as Buhari is now the Nigerians President and Mallam El-Rufai, a renowned hate preacher is a governor of a state in Nigeria.
As it a normal practice in Nigeria, if governmentts want to destroy Christians with laws, they will draft it by mentioning Islam as a cover or to deceive the people.
Read below, some of the contents of the anti-Christian laws;
- In Kaduna you cannot preach without license
- Every preacher will have to go and get ONLY one year license (renewable every year). That is, you must always preach without an expired license or you risk 2 years imprisonment.
- If you invite any external preacher (i.e. preacher outside Kaduna state), such a person must be licensed for the duration of his/her stay and the body issuing the license has the right to reject external preacher they feel is not qualify to preach in Kaduna state.
- Every preacher who want to be licensed will appear before a screening committee. If he/she scales through, he/she will only be given licensed for one year.
- The law criminalizes the use of CDS, Flash Drive and other communication gadgets except in religious building or inside your house.
- That means, you will be arrested for listening to preaching or religious music inside your cars or in any open place except in your house or religious building.
- If you preach without license, you are guilty of offense punishable with 2 years imprisonment or a fine of 200,000.
- You can’t use microphone in your church after 8pm you are guilty of offense punishable with 2 years’ imprisonment or a fine of 200,000.
- Since all preaching must be done within a building, it means public evangelism will be criminalized. Those who preach early morning, known by some as morning cry and preaching inside bus if arrested will be fined N200,000.
- This could also means, people will not be allowed to go out for evangelism on streets or move with vehicles with address systems to advertise their programs.
About 9 states in Nigeria assumed the status of Islamic state in a secular country and governed by Islamic law and in most cases, Christians are tried in these courts.
Are we still one zoonigeria? Hahahaha, they vote him in. When say that apc will islamise nigeria, those fortunate one would say it is imporsible. That we are in a democracy one person wont decide for other. Who is deciding now? I pitty you all zoorians. Yorubas are hearing the hamer of hawusas. Hahahahaha i laugh again.
ReplyDeleteThis report is not fair to we the people of Kaduna state who have experienced series of Secretariat crisis in the previous years which was as a result of religious preaching that fan the amber of discord. This development by Mallam Nasir is not aim at any particular religious group but to all religion practice in Kaduna state. We appreciate this bold move and we hope it will enhance peaceful coexistence in the state.
ReplyDeleteThank you...
DeleteCos to men the law affects both Christians and muslims
People like you who have no message are threatened by people who have a message.fool
DeleteYoure all hypocrites. If Nasir likes he should find more laws the word of God must previal . There is only one true God hes name is Jesus Christ.
DeleteThe Lord Jesus will build his church and even the gates of he'll shall not prevail against it. You have all failed..
Deleteare you sure there will be no Jumat on friday without a licence from Government? no early morning announcement done every day?
DeleteHunnn development in deed, why ijab was not tamper with when bombing was going on in North East even when the bomber are hidden their bombs unther the so called ujab? Where is freedom of worship in Kaduna state? Even when the place is hot this kind of homboo law was not made, now he want to start another problem between them? When but this may lead to another series of trouble again, what type of development will this bring to the state?
DeleteThis is another Boko haram idia.

DeleteThe people of southern Kaduna will not obey this law of Regulating times of worship to God and places to worship God.
DeleteIts only a foolish person that will say he/she does not know what their plans are.I will build my church and gates of hell shall not prevail against it,The scriptures must be fulfilled am not worried at all.Instead of you to think of how to move the state forward economically and be productive you are busy causing problems for the state.You have to be careful El Rufai
DeleteEl Rufai is a mere mortal who does not know what tomorrow holds. Our God is on the throne, He never sleeps or slumbers. He is keeping watch over Nigeria. The country does not belong to any tribe or religion. there is freedom of worship. we coexisted for so long without these messes. what we should do now is to pray for Nigeria to be back on her feet again rather than use religion as a tool of de stablishing the the peace of the nation. God will trouble all the troublers of this nation. they will be put to shame.
DeleteEl rufai is a failure.
ReplyDeleteElrufai can not fail and I promise you he is here to succeed. It is we the Christians that has failed by voting them into power simply bcz you want change Hunnnn I am happy now that what I said is coming through and I pray we learn from it bcz even pastor were campaigning for the so call APC
DeleteOnce in the bible, Pilate killed John the Baptist and when he saw the Jews liked it, he moved on to arrest Peter. Well, the Church woke up and payed in earnest. Peter was freed and the gospel grew. See, El-rufai is trying to be like Pilate and we already know the end of the story. The point is that the Church need to rise up from sleep and pray the agent out of that seat, then install the right person there.
DeleteWho can decree a thing when the mouth of the Lord has not spoken it?
ReplyDeleteOnly the counsel of the Lord shall stand
The Lord brings the counsel of the wicked to nothing, He makes their devices of none effect
The Lord will build His Church and the gates of hell cannot prevail against it
U are int he end of days. The book of revelation is been fulfilled every day in this age and we cant discern it. The Anti-christ system is on. Seek Jesus and eternal life now. Denominations in the name of christian faith are leading men to doom. Jesus is Gods standard for us.If we be like Jesus Then we are Christ-Like. God bless you
DeleteThe Lord will build His church and the gates of hell will never prevail against it.
ReplyDeleteWho can decree a thing when the mouth of the Lord has not spoken it?
The Lord brings the counsel of the wicked to nothing, and makes all their devices of non effect.
you had better start praying and praying in tongues indeed
ReplyDeleteJESUS CHRIST IS LORD OF HEAVENS AND EARTH; HE RULES IN ALL ENDS OF THE EARTH; WHEATHER BUHARI OR EL RUFAI. THEIR PLANS AND LAWS SHALL FAIL THEM; AND THEY SHOULD ALSO KNOW THIS THAT; UNLESS THEY REPENT FROM THEIR EVIL WAYS; AND SURRENDER THEIR LIFES TO THE ONLY WISE AND TRUE GOD; JESUS THE CHRIST; SAVIOUR OF THE WHOLE WORLD; THEY WILL END-UP IN HELL FIRE; WHERE THEY WILL BE TORMENTED DAY AND NIGHT ;TIME WIHTOUT END:
ReplyDeleteIf really mal.started this then he is heading for doom, and that shows he is not fit to served God.
ReplyDeleteWhy do we pretend serving God? You dont hv right to restrict people from serving the almighty beside how long shall you spend on the mantled as the state governor.
Using the tragedy of Shia Islamic Sect to enact broad laws to undermine rights of the people guaranteed in the constitution is something we should not stand for. We must fight this.
ReplyDeleteThe Lord wins.The whims of Satan are defeated.The Word of God shall spread in the city of Kaduna. No force can stop the spread of the gospel in you, oh city of Kaduna!
ReplyDeletedoes this also affect Islam? El-Rufai should be careful before the wrath of God visit him
ReplyDeleteBrethren, believers, Christians. where ever you are i want you to know this.Fear not. The GOD of the church, Christians and believers is not asleep. whether El-rufai, Bukharin, Islams, Alla or whatever they call their selves. Have you forgotten NEBUCHADNEZZAR who GOD ALMIGHTY sent to zoology school and HEROD who was given as a daily bread to the worms of the earth because of his people. Repent or you will perish. Remember there's many mighty gods, But there's one and only ALMIGHTY GOD of all other gods, JESUS LOVES YOU. J blessed.
ReplyDeleteThis is clearly a violation of the freedom of religion guaranteed under section 38 of the Nigerian Constitution. The law is null and void ab initio.
ReplyDeletelie lie law that makes his citizens to suffer
ReplyDeleteWhy are we so sectional and divisive? The law applies to ALL RELIGIONS!!!
ReplyDelete1. Use your speakers inside the house and do not disturb other religions. Does that not make sense to you?
2. Identify yourself before you assume a position that can influence people's thinking. So that when you make inciteful statements, you can be traced. Does that not make sense for all religions?
What is wrong with us? Why all the hateful statements? If your God is so powerful, let him handle the matter and you should stop making noise!
Nice comment. But I just hope that loud speaker preaching dat disturbs my sleep will also stop
DeleteChikwendu! Do you know the meaning of your name? Do not meddle in forces that you do not have control over. Let me tell you a story about Elijah and some prophets of Baal (1 Kings 18). I will advise that you can mock other said deity, but if there is one you should FEAR, it is God. Thanks
DeleteThumbs up Chickwendu.I like your reasoning.
DeleteWhich God Do U Worship????
DeleteYou doubt God almighty. He will prove to you that he is all powerful. Just watch and see what happens in Kaduna in times to come.
DeleteIt is said that who ever d gods want to kill they call st of all make mad. That nigeria is in peace is bcos d Christian religion does not preach hate. When syria was been helped by the so-called united islamic nation nigeria was mentioned. As an islamic nation and u are here saying nonsense. Dnt worry wen dey prevail if dey ever do na my head go dey stake urs wld properbly be bow to their own god thats if u have not done dat already.
DeleteThis is outrageous...I have lost my respect for this man...God help Nigeria..
ReplyDeleteNigerian Leaders.. We want u 2 solve our economic problem hence 90% of our problems will disappear,We need freedom hence knowledge will be our right.Please, stop sacrificing us to fulfill your personal agenda, giving us more problems, enslaving us after independence.Do you enjoy killing us? My people be wise, we all serve one God tell your leaders to remove/reduce your problems not to produce/multiply your problems.... Nigerians a word is enough for a wise, lets stop division in the name of religion, unit in love to God and your neighbors and fight evils in our land. God bless Nigeria....
ReplyDeleteIs this Abuja agenda test-running in Kaduna? Those who know the true face of the "Northern Religion" should not be surprised at this carlousness in display
ReplyDeletey: Luka Binniyat KADUNA – Governor Nasir El Rufai of Kaduna State has orderd the immediate closure of two churches, a seminary and a church-owned hospitals and secondary school all in Saminaka, Lere Local Government Area of Kaduna State. He said the closure was to avoid the eruption of violence among factions of the congregations whose leaderships’ positions he described as, “principally to preserve their personal interests with little concern for the common good, and the peace and security of Kaduna State”. A statement on behalf of the governor sign by his spokesman, Samuel Aruwan Wednesday in Kaduna named the affected bodies as: Theological Seminary of Northern Nigeria, (TSNN), Shalom Comprehensive College, Assemblies of God Church, AGC, Nmbare all in Saminaka. The rest are: Assemblies of God Church (Jerusalem) and AGC Evangelist Hospital, also in Saminaka: Reads the statement: “The Kaduna State Security Council at its 15th meeting, held on the 15th September, 2015, deliberated on the leadership crisis in the Assemblies of God Church, AGC, Saminaka District, Lere local government area of the state. “The council discussed this matter in the context of preventing threats to the peace and stability of the State. “The Council noted that the leadership crisis has led to disintegration of order in the church, and raised tensions between the followers of the rival camps. The crisis has also widened to the students of the church-owned school and seminary, who are now split and divided on factional lines. “The Council reviewed previous efforts made to resolve the crisis. It noted that these were aborted by those involved in the leadership tussle, principally to preserve their personal interests with little concern for the common good, and the peace and security of Kaduna State. “The Council unanimously agreed that if left unchecked, the growing tension may degenerate into total breakdown of law and order in the said area, with the potential to spread to other parts of the state. “Therefore, the Council has taken steps to preserve the peace. It has unanimously directed the immediate closure of the following: “Theological Seminary of Northern Nigeria, (TSNN) Saminaka. Shalom Comprehensive College, Saminaka Assemblies of God Church, Nmbare, Saminaka and Assemblies of God Church (Jerusalem) Saminaka AGC Evangelist Hospital, Saminaka “As a result of these measures, those who may be affected will be admitted into government schools or hospitals, if they exercise the option. “The Council also directed that the status quo with regard to farmlands, houses and other assets of the church be upheld pending resolution of the leadership crisis, which is a matter before the Supreme Court. “Kaduna State Government wishes to reiterate that it will not tolerate the use of religion and ethnicity to cause crisis in the state. “The government has also announced that it will prosecute anyone, no matter his or her standing, that is implicated in fomenting crisis in whatever form in the State”, the statement concluded

EL-Rufai wants to Islamise Kaduna state, he wants to cause another crises in the state and sponsor boko haram islamic terrorists and the shiat islamic militants to start killing innocent people and burning down houses again in Kaduna state, El-Rufai should wait for the Judgement of God, it will come on him and he can't escape the wrath of almighty God, those who are trickishly islamising Nigeria will all face immediate Judgement from GOD, they killed the former Governor of kaduna state who was a christian, they planted a bomb in a helicopter and killed him outside the state when he traveled on official assignment, now El-Rufai has started again with his islamic agenda, everybody will see the judgement of God on El-Rufai and his islamic agenda.
ReplyDeleteIf trouble start in the state it's you who will open your dirty mouthes and start endless rounds of lie.
DeleteAs a matter of fact, I wasn’t astonish about this Mr Elrufai development, his hatred towards Christians does not emerge overnight, in reminiscence to Elrufai derogatory comments on Twitter of his inflammatory statement... where he said a disgraceful comment of a very bad statement about the person of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ can evidently now be seen that Elrufai hate Christians from onset even before he got into power which he shall surely vacate someday.
ReplyDeleteElrufai you can do worse than this your devilish mission accomplish, shame on you as you can not stop our brothers and sisters from worshiping Jesus Christ, and your verdict can not take kingdom of God away from them. Jesus Christ gospel shall continue and you will extinct one-day. http://pointblanknews.com/…/el-rufai-defiles-jesus-christ-…/ (Elrufai insulted himself and not Jesus Christ onJanuary 28, 2013 ).
Finally, Jesus Christ is the One who shall judge you on the Last Day Elrifai, anything you do now shall be used against you on Judgement Day where you will tell Jesus Christ why you have persecuted Him!!!!
The battle belongs to God
ReplyDeleteHevis not serious even inside joke we must preach d gospel.
ReplyDeleteEven inside hole we must preach d gospel.
ReplyDeleteWe know that they are all of their Father the devil. He try to kill Jesus when he was child, when He resurected devil try his best so that it will not be announce, Saul became Paul all because he want stop the gospel. Men and bredren let us keep on praying, and see how far they persecute Christ.
ReplyDeleteI don't really know why many people rain curse on mallam ElRufai. Saul did worst before Jesus handled him on his way to Damascus, and records shows us that he did great exploit for God.
ReplyDeleteMy brethren in the Lord, this Malam El-Rufai you are mentioning today, you shall mention him no more because when God meet him; he'll surely become #Apostle El-Rufai.
Only time will tell.
Praise the Lord.
Lol.... It's a good idea though if all the blocking of the streets in the name of prayers and loud speaker blasting in my ears will stop,am cool with that, concerning the Church God is watching & he will surely intervene soonest, just keep your eyes & ears wide open. Please insults is not Christ-like
ReplyDeleteLol...if the blocking of the streets in the name of prayers and the blasting of ears with mic & loud speaker (grrrrrr) will stop thats cool. Please brethren insults is not the thing
ReplyDeleteLet the will of God prevail. For no one can actually kick against a bab wire.
ReplyDeletewhat makes El -Rufia thinks that he can do what his Islamic Fathers could not do. someone help me ask him the committee that will screen the intending preacher before granting the the licences will there be Christians as members? El-rufia should remember that he just an ordinary man whose breath can be ceased in seconds by the Almighty.
ReplyDeleteGod!!!
ReplyDeleteJohn 15:18-21
ReplyDelete"If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also."
These are the words of Jesus.
Brothers and sisters, we'll be persecuted for the sake of the gospel, we'll be persecuted for Jesus' sake. He told us so...
But nothing can separate us from the love of God cuz in all these things, we are more than conquerors.
1 John 4:3-4
"and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world."
These happenings are schemes of the devil through the antichrist, but we have overcome the world. "For whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world." 1 John 5:4
"We wrestle not against flesh and blood..." This is beyond the governor and the lawmakers.
We ought not to rain insults on these men, no! Rather, we pray fervently and declare by faith that come what may, the gospel of Jesus Christ prevails in the land. That whatever laws have been made against the gospel are "unmade." That ministers of the gospel in such places be strengthened in their inner man by the Holy Spirit and that they are delivered from wicked and unreasonable men. That Christians be filled with boldness to declare God's word. That peace reigns and that all men come to the knowledge of Christ.
Remember Apostle Paul who was once Saul?
The gospel is God's saving power unto salvation. We should pray that as the gospel is preached, even those working against the preaching hear and receive faith unto salvation.
The devil's desire is for many to perish in sin. He will do whatever he can to try to stop the message of the gospel from reaching the unsaved.
We as Christians have a role to play in ensuring that the gospel reaches all those in darkness. It is a mandate given to us by the Master -- to preach the gospel and make disciples of all men. We have received the ability and the grace and we have the Holy Spirit.
"and so mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed..." The word of God always, not sometimes, but always prevails.
The gospel is spreading and prevailing in Kaduna and in Nigeria; and nothing, no man, no law, no devil, can stop us or the gospel from prevailing!
Hallelujah!
This caption is very misleading. It bans ALL religions from constituting noise pollution or carrying out forceful or coercive manipulations into people's beliefs. This is the law in advanced countries, even Christian dominated countries. You won't see loud speakers in public places or early morning prayer calls. Preachers are duly licenced so that if one should become derogatory, bigotry, or spearhead any terrorist movement, they can be identified.
ReplyDeleteIt is all well packaged but the intent is to stop the growth of the Church. Beware!
DeleteGod will answer el rufai soon
ReplyDeleteAll i ask for is his Life... He will die
ReplyDeleteI cant be possible Holy Spirit will see him through and he we confirmed by him self that normal activities should carry out.
ReplyDeletePsalm 2The Message (MSG)
ReplyDelete2 1-6 Why the big noise, nations?
Why the mean plots, peoples?
Earth-leaders push for position,
Demagogues and delegates meet for summit talks,
The God-deniers, the Messiah-defiers:
“Let’s get free of God!
Cast loose from Messiah!”
Heaven-throned God breaks out laughing.
At first he’s amused at their presumption;
Then he gets good and angry.
Furiously, he shuts them up:
“Don’t you know there’s a King in Zion? A coronation banquet
Is spread for him on the holy summit.”
