If that has not been done and the Islamic form of Non-Interest Banking is just but a choice amongst others,then i see no reason to be so emotive on the issue.<br /><br />For the Bishops ,i understand their emotion; the whole Boko Haram thing, killings in the north in the name of religion. I was in Kaduna during the Beauty pageant riots, Zaria during the religious crisis in the 8os and i must say i am very concerned how quickly 'Muslims' in the North resort to violence at the slightest provocation. Many have shown their aversion to a mixed legal system and will rather prefer a complete Sharia based society. these has informed alot of people's responses , so maybe we should be a bit easy on the anti-Islamic banking proponents.<br /><br />At the risk of being generalistic i have seen many 'Christians' do horid things in the name of religion; including our Bishops and leaders. The Holy Scriptures remain our standard.<br /><br />My only grouse with the CBN is the the way NIB was introduced initially.The initial gazette read Islamic (NID) banking, we all know that there are other forms of it. <br /><br />I expected the CBN would have published rules for all forms of NIB(knowing our religious polarity), then whatever group meets the regulation for whatever form of banking can now be given the license.<br /><br />Having said this , i will still implore for more tolerance on our part as believers of our various religion and for a balanced approach in addressing these issues on the part of the CBNYakubuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14519230768467402867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522281603276666782.post-78752292924510184692011-07-11T14:48:40.676+01:002011-07-11T14:48:40.676+01:00I don't see anything wrong with interest free ...I don't see anything wrong with interest free banking in Nigeria but I feel the CBN should have organized a workshop to enlighten the religious leaders on the project and who says the Bishops shouldn't scream! <br />These people have seen a lot happen in this country. What would you call a politically motivated riot that got only churches damaged in this northern cities and towns and Christians are been killed? <br />please Dr. I respect your contribution but if you read through this blog and compare comments made by people with seemingly islamic/northern names , you will feel the hatred and desire to oppress the others who don't have same sounding names. <br />So, I really doubt if we are getting it right living together as a country.<br />Nigerians take their religion 1st and every other thing second on the surface. <br />please Dr. do a survey of the comments on your blog and honestly advise on the way you think for Nigeria. <br /><br />For me I think religion has made us to so hate one another that I feel we are just wasting our time staying together as a nation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522281603276666782.post-82973489666901642272011-07-11T14:04:52.213+01:002011-07-11T14:04:52.213+01:00kenny, your last two points exposes your antigoni...kenny, your last two points exposes your antigonism of the interest free banking, re-read your post you have answered your sentiments.<br />HADIHadi Rumanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522281603276666782.post-36484802295253149312011-07-11T12:35:22.082+01:002011-07-11T12:35:22.082+01:00Thank you all for your various comments, mostly in...Thank you all for your various comments, mostly in support of Dr Tilde's writing.It's beyond that, that Islamic bank will not stand with out our fullcooperation and support.What I mean by cooperation is this living up to agreements.What I mean by support here is our patronage.Iremember when Jaiz came to the market the first time to raise money from the public,many of us refused to invest our funds then.I hope this time a round we are going to patronise the Islamic banking by investing our funds there and buying in to their products with patience,the returns may not be as high as what we normally received from the interest based banking transactions.For those of us that waiting to borrow funds from the Islamic bank we should be sincere with ourselves.May Allah help us, AmeeenShamsuddeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512221791741937507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522281603276666782.post-5238770927025536742011-07-11T11:24:04.306+01:002011-07-11T11:24:04.306+01:00Thank you very much Dr. Aliyu Usman Tilde.

Sanusi shut down healthy banks because he wanted to introduce Islamic banking on circular and volatile country like Nigeria. It is only a blind writer like Aliyu U. Tilde that will be insensitive not to have seen the menace caused by Islam in Nigeria and in the world in General. He made reference to the UK and the USA, and I want to ask him, if people in these countries kill their citizens because of Religion??? How can a sensitive person like Sanusi who holds an exalted office in a circular country like ours introduce a religious bank knowing fully well it would cause problems. If JONATHAN as the president of Nigeria introduces a Christian bank which will be operative based on Christian laws and principles, will other religions like it??? Will he be viewed as being considerate and not one sided??? What then happens when a Muslim who does not share the same faith or believes with his Christian brother goes to the bank to collect a loan?? Does he {The Muslim} denounce his faith because he wishes to collect loan from the Christian indoctrinated bank??? The north introduced sharia law not minding that other religion exist there and you people can see the progress we have made so far with it{BOKO HARAM killing Christians and Muslims}. Let us not allow sentiments affect our better sense of judgment as any right thinking person knows we do not need a religious oriented bank in Nigeria for now.KENNYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522281603276666782.post-8677090388724215012011-07-08T23:03:52.038+01:002011-07-08T23:03:52.038+01:00That was a short and to the point.
