Zamfara Government Orders Demolition of All Churches

from P.M. News on Friday, April 30, 2004
Article ID: D144753

Governor Ahmed Sani of Zamfara State, has ordered the demolition of all churches in the state, as he launched the second phase of his Sharia project yesterday.

Speaking at the launch in Gusau, the state capital, Governor Sani disclosed that time was ripe for full implementation of the programme as enshrined in the Holy Quran.

He added that his government would soon embark on demolition of all places of worship of unbelievers in the state, in line with Islamic injunction to fight them wherever they are found.

The religious freedom to worship that Muslims demand in countries like the United States is non-existant in countries that are fully controlled by Islamic law. Again, Islam does not want your understanding of it, it wants your surrender to it.
