Ibiyeomie Threatens to Back Nigeria's Division Over Religious Freedom Concerns

Ibiyeomie Threatens to Back Nigeria's Division Over Religious Freedom Concerns

Pastor David Ibiyeomie of Salvation Ministries has criticised what he described as the selective silence of some Yoruba pastors under President Bola Tinubu's administration. Speaking during a church service, Ibiyeomie said some pastors were more vocal during former President Goodluck Jonathan's tenure, which he argued was better than the current administration. He described the contrast as tribalistic. He said Nigeria must protect freedom of worship and vowed to oppose any attempt to Islamize the country. The cleric added that he would support calls for Nigeria's division if religious freedom were threatened.

What standard should religious leaders use to speak consistently, regardless of which administration is in power?

Exactly. The same moral principles should guide public statements, whether the government is popular or not.

The criticism appears to be less about silence alone and more about whether public outrage is applied selectively.

Calling for division is a serious step; disagreement over pastors' political voices should not automatically lead there.

It would help if pastors addressed specific religious freedom concerns and proposed lawful solutions instead of broad political threats.
