Femi Fani Kayode blasts Lai Mohammed for saying killing of Christians by Muslims is fallacious 

.

.

Former Minister off Aviation has slammed the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, for condemning the statements by some religious leaders alleging that Pres Buhari-led administration is planning to Islamise Nigeria. 

.

.

In a statement by the minister’s special assistant on media and publicity, Segun Adeyemi, Mr. Mohammed said the allegations were a campaign of calumny. 

.

.

“The alleged Islamisation of Nigeria under the current administration is totally false and should be perceived in its entirety as a campaign of calumny,” the statement said.

.

.

“There is no bigger threat to the peace and unity of our country today than religion-coated incendiary messages, which are being carelessly sent out by some religious, political and opinion leaders.

.

.

In recent times, the media has been increasingly awash with incendiary statements that seem designed to pitch the adherents of the two prominent religions in the country, Christians and Muslims against one another. 

.

.

Such fallacies like the Islamisation of Nigeria, the killing of Christians by Muslims, the labelling of Nigeria as the most dangerous place for Christians in the world can only serve one purpose: trigger a religious war”, the minister said.
