Its President, Bishop Wale Oke, also said that the National Assembly should not succumb to such agitation, capable of further plunging the country into major religious crisis.Oke said rather, the lawmakers should direct their energies toward solving the mounting problems bedeviling the country, especially as its concerns the security of lives and property.“Sharia Law is alien to our culture of religious existence in the South-West.
“Don’t instigate religious crisis in the South-West; this could further threaten the fragile peace of the country,” he said. Oke said that secularity of the nation’s existence, devoid of any religious upheaval, should not be tampered with under whatever guise. PFN leader, therefore, urged its members, who appeared agitated over the development, to remain calm.
He implored them to always comport themselves and avoid taking laws into their hands, and make peaceful coexistence their watchword.

Why would they do that in the first place? Which kind of lawless country is Nigeria? Why should Northerners always feel as if the whole of Nigeria belongs to them. They would soon be shown where they belong.
But there are Muslims in South West.
