President Muhammadu Buhari has assured that his government will not tolerate religious intolerance in the country. “This government shall never tolerate religious intolerance. The politicisation of religion – as forbidden by the constitution – has no place in Nigeria,” the statement stated. “On the contrary, Christians and Muslims alike are united in their opposition to Boko Haram and the hatred for decency that the infamous group stands for. As we fight Boko Haram on the ground, so too must we tackle their beliefs: stability and unity in face of their hatred is itself a rejection of their worldview.”
