Eccentric media personality Charly Boy is here again and this time, it's about Africans and religion.
According to him, there is too much social and political pressure on Africans to be religious and to remain religious.
He took to Instagram today, June 23, 2016 writing, "The
reasons why Nigerians are the most religious people in the world are
not far fetched. Africans go through religious indoctrination from
cradle to the grave. Africans are not allowed by family, society and the
state to think, reason or live outside the religious box. In Africa
religion is by force not by choice. Religion is by compulsion and not
according to one’s conscience. Nigerians are brought up to believe that
there is NO alternative to religion. When in fact there is. So in
Africa, it is either you are religious or you are nobody-you are not a
human being, you are nothing. There is too much social and political
pressure on Africans to be religious and to remain religious. The
social, political and sometimes economic price of leaving religion,
renouncing religion or criticizing religion is so high.
So Africans are religious willy nilly. Africans profess all sorts of religious crap even when they know it is all nonsense."
Just recently, the Area Fada slammed 'overtly' religious Nigerians who were unsympathetic about the massacre of innocent people in a gay night club in Orlando, Florida.
