Busayo, do you really think it is religion or political motives disguised in religion? I have quite of few friends who are Nigerian, and they seem to think that it is for political factions using religious zealots to further their agenda.

I was in Ghana and Muslims and Christians got along really well. Outside of the Black community in America I don't think I have seen that much mutual respect.

its both religious and political. Politics is the bigger factor though as yoruba muslims get along pretty well with yoruba christians.

land and political disputes complicate things in the middle belt and north (where most of the fighting is).
