May I correct an erroneous impression contained in the report on an armchair survey as published in the Washington Post online with the following headline:
Survey Details 'Deep' Divide Between Muslims, Westerners
Nigeria is not a predominantly Muslim country.
The population of Muslims in Nigeria is only 35%.
Animists make up only 15% and the rest are Christians. Therefore Nigeria is more of a predominantly Christian country than a predominantly Muslim country.
The Western media should not misinform the general public with such erroneous and ambiguous reports from armchair reporters.
I have already written the conductors of the survey to correct their mistake on Nigeria.
Nigeria is not a predominantly Muslim country and will never be one.
Because, Nigeria is actually a predominantly Christian country.
