Muslims that block the road to pray should be flogged severely – Nigerian man says

A recent video capturing a Nigerian man’s controversial statement about Muslims praying in public areas, particularly on roadways, has ignited a heated discussion on social media.

Public displays of religious faith are common in Nigeria, as a country with diverse religious and cultural backgrounds. However, the practice of blocking roads for prayer has often raised concerns related to traffic disruptions and public safety.

While some argue that road blockages for prayers can be a safety hazard and inconvenience to others, there is a wider consensus that punitive actions, such as flogging, may not be the appropriate solution. The discussion has prompted many to call for a more inclusive approach, involving dialogue and cooperation between religious communities and relevant authorities to find solutions that accommodate both public safety and religious practice.
