At the Islam Africa Conference in Abuja (1989) the resolution issued at the conclusion of the conference declared their communiqué which is: “to show the whole world that Nigeria is truly an Islamic nation…to support the establishment and application of sharia….to ensure the appointment of only Muslims into strategic national and international posts of member nations. To eradicate in all forms and ramifications all non-Muslim (such religions shall include Christianity….) religions in member nations (which includes Nigeria). Ibrahim Babangida was to implement this communiqué in Nigeria. Just before the 2003 elections Muhammadu Buhari said Christians should vote Christians and Muslims should vote Muslims. Buhari made this statement because he felt that Nigeria has a higher Muslim voting population which would give him an edge over his top rival. At that time the two main presidential contenders were Buhari and Obasanjo. A post from NLM
