n a world where terrorism has become the order of the day with attribution to the religion Islaam, despite several disclaimers from different islamic leaders, the perpetrators of these evil acts still portray themselves as Muslims. Hence it becomes difficult to know who the real terrorists are.
The consequence of religious plagiarism has been said to be the major cause of religious extremism.
This was said by a lecturer in the department of foreign studies in the Lagos state University, Dr Mustapha Adebayo, at the Annual symposium of the Muslim Students Society in the Nigerian Institute of Journalism, Ogba Lagos.
The lecturer said that misunderstanding and misrepresentation of the islamic religion gave rise to the ideology held by different islamic sects terrorizing countries in some parts of the world today.
"Religious sects terrorising countries all over the world like the boko haram in Nigeria, Al shabab in the middle east and several others are all results of religious plagiarism" he said.
He further explained the causes and reasons for the birth of boko haram sect in Nigeria in this video clip https://www.dropbox.com/s/wyhd7yq6nz1y9aw/20150603_081609.mp4?dl=0
