Matthew Kukah, bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, says Muslims and Christians in Nigeria enjoy peaceful and cordial relationship. <\/p>\n

Speaking on TVC\u2019s Breakfast Show on Monday, Kukah said irresponsible leaders are the ones sowing the seed of discord among the people. <\/p>\n

He noted that some leaders have turned religion into a tool for oppression.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no problem between Christians and Muslims,<\/a>\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a problem between irresponsible leaders who don\u2019t want to govern properly; irresponsible Christian religious leaders who have now seen religion as a tool of oppression instead of a tool for liberation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has been the thrust of my argument because these are two areas of study. With all sense of modesty, I have spent a good part of my life studying theology and studying religion and society.\u201d<\/p>\n

The cleric said the nation has failed to establish a government system that prioritises its residents\u2019 needs above everything else.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are watching a football match or any game at all, that\u2019s why there are referees. If the referee does not do what needs to be done and allows supporters to jump onto the field, you can see for yourself that referees are punishing coaches who overreach themselves by stepping even if it is just one inch, into the field. They are punished and sometimes they are taken off the pitch,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, this is really what a state is supposed to be. Because without the state, it will be all of us against each other. And that is why the state is called a leviathan. You put so much power so that the state can protect us.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nigerian state has proved itself to be incompetent, grossly malfunctioning, unable, and unwilling to commit the welfare of citizens as the principal basis of governance.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
