"Religion Must Never Be Used By Anyone To Oppress Or Gain Unfair Advantage"- Buhari


He gave these statements  at the 8th edition of the Annual Lagos Thanksgiving Service that was held yesterday. He was joined by the Governor of Lagos state Babatunde Fashola, RCCG General Overseer Pastor Adeboye and his wife, APC National Chairman John Oyegun, Gov Rotimi Amaechi, APC VP Candidate Prof Yemi Osinbajo, amidst others. 

In his remark he said; 

"I am honoured to participate in this year's edition of the Lagos Thanksgiving Service. I am glad to know that this year's service has brought together Nigerians of all faiths just to thank and praise the Almighty God for his mercies. This is how it should be. Religion must never be used to divide or oppress others or gain unfair advantage. All my life, I have always held the belief that all Nigerians must be free to worship God according to their beliefs. The duty of government is not religion, the duty of government is to ensure peace, security of all Nigerians, regardless of tribe, race or religion. And this is a commitment all of us must make in this service" He said.
