Bishop David Oyedepo, General Overseer of Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners Chapel) has warned the President Muhammadu Buhari led administration not to Islamise Nigeria.
Oyedepo stated this in Ota during his prophetic ministration in reaction to inclusion of Arabic Studies in Police recruitment examination.
He said: ”The inclusion of Arabic studies in the recent Nigeria Police Force NPF recruitment test is highly unacceptable.
“Some forces just want to score political marks by trying to divide and impress the president and divide us as a people.
“This administration and all agents that want to divide us should be seriously warned as it’s too late to turn Nigeria into an Islamic State.
"We therefore reject the NPF recruitment test and ask for it to be re-written without the inclusion of the Arabic Studies in it”, the Bishop added.

This is really not arguable. At this point where some terrorists are making lives uncomfortable, you need tactics that can ward off any threats by being able to understand some languages (arabic included) that these terrorists communicate with as this could be a way to gather intel.
Note that Arabic Studies is NOT Arabic language. Arabic studies could include Islam and that is where the problem is. Well done Bishop.
The study of arabic in a country that more than 60% of the population are Islamic is very necessary. The Police must understand and be able to read arabic it will help.
THANK YOU BISHOP.
