Arabic is a language, Paastors should stop heating the polity - Olu Adegoke

"Oyedepo said government had no right to force subjects on anybody, saying that by stopping Christian Religion Studies, CRS, at the Senior Secondary School level, it automatically meant that it would not be embraced at the tertiary institutions."- PM News

Listen to this hypocrite, Covenant University - Oyedepo's university has no Department of Religious Studies; yet the Bishop is busy heating up the polity unnecessarily. If Oyedepo loves Christian Religion Studies so much, why has he not created a Department of Christian Religion Studies at his University?


Arabic is a language. What I think PFN and CAN should do is to insist that no part of the Arabic Studies curriculum must contain any reference to Allah, Mohammed or any religious teachings. IT should be taught just the same way as English and French. Christians teachers should be recruited too alongside Muslim teachers to teach the Arabic Studies. It should not be a backdoor way of teaching Islam. Arabic Studies should not be about Islam. More Christians can be encouraged to take the course too. There is no harm in learning a language insofar as it is not a Jihadist attempt at pushing Islam through the backdoor.
