Get Guardian on GoogleBacks Makinde for banning NURTW
Former Governor Rashidi Ladoja of Oyo State has said that nobody can Islamise Nigeria, saying doing so will be difficult.
Ladoja stated this while addressing journalists at his Ondo Street, Bodija, Ibadan home as his Sallah message.
He said: “In Nigeria, we should be thanking God because religion is not an issue or our problem until recently. No government can eradicate any religion. We are too close to one another for that to happen. You cannot force anybody to convert to another religion.
Also, on the proscription of the state wing of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) by the Seyi Makinde-led administration, the former governor said: “Their excesses are too many. NURTW is not the only union in the state.”
