Promise Emmanuel, the Senior Special Assistant on Cybercrime to the Kogi State Governor, has called for religious tolerance in light of a viral video showing a woman confronting Muslims praying on a road. In a Facebook post, Emmanuel argued that blocking roads for Friday prayers was wrong, but the practice could be justified due to the large number of Muslims gathering for prayers and limited space.
He also criticized some Christian practices, such as uninvited door-to-door preaching and using loudspeakers in public places to preach. Emmanuel emphasized that tolerance was necessary for peaceful coexistence among Nigeria's religiously diverse population.
