If they can create their own laws in nigeria, the southeast too needs to state creating laws too. No roaming around with cattle – it’s not hygienic and it’s distroys our farm, no loud speakers in worship centers – it’s noise pollution, no sleeping around without a proper resident- we want to know the criminals, all couples must be above 18 years – pedophiles would be arrested… Christians should wake up as every parts of nigeria have the right to create their own law.
