The TelegraphNG reports
Philips who lives in Qatar has been issued a Nigerian Visa to visit and preach in the Country. The cleric has already been banned from countries like Australia, Germany, United Kingdom, United States of America, Kenya, amongst others.
Reports had it that the cleric celebrated his Visa issuance with his followers on his facebook on Sunday morning, saying, “Al hamdu lillaah. I just got a visa for Nigeria and will be going there in a few days, in shaa allaah. So, I hope to see all my Nigerian brothers and sisters. Baarakallaahu feekum”.Speaking to journalists in Abuja, the Minister of Interior noted that every country has its own requirement for the grant visa and in Nigeria’s situation especially against “the back drop of our security challenges, we also have our requirement for granting of visas.
“We have our own black list too of people that because of our security situation should not be allowed into country. And if this preacher that you talk about for instance did not fall within the list of people black listed for their activities that are inimical to internal security. If he is preaching and the content of what he has submitted for the granting of visa that will not undermine the security of the country, then certainly we will grant him the visa. That is the purpose we have achieved here”.He further said it was double standards, as “when the Nigerian government signed the anti-law and the west was complaining, we started that Nigeria nation is a soverign country that should be allowed to determine it’s destiny and practices”.
He added that Nigeria will therefore not use” the refusal of visa by Germany, UK as a basis for refusing anybody visa here.
“I can assure you that the Nigerian security personnel are equal to the task of detecting whose activities that are inimical to the situation of this country.
“Any moment that his preaching and activities are seen to be inimical to the security of this country I can assure you that we are up to the task of repatriating him as soon as possible.
“And his specific activities in this country guides the request that he has made which has also guided the action of the Nigerian immigration service in granting the visa.
“Apart from the preacher any other person that gains entry to this country whose activities undermine the integrity and security of this country will be properly treated.”

U pple r so dumb together with d blogger.. Just coz som1 is banned nd said to be a terrorist by d US nd other allies of it den u all go wild nd putting it back on Islam? Let me ask u.. How many terrorist do u know that walk freely? Ask d educated American citizen about all their war on terror and hear wat he has to say. Then I challange all of u shouting abt d headline to go on youtube nd listen to his lectures. If u get it from there that he is encouraging terrorism den say all u can.
U saw him yourself? The social media is completely a picture to get us all fighting each oda while they get on with their evil acts. Continue claiming its d Muslims behind every evil acts but we all know these people dnt even bliv in anything religion. Say all u like. Its ur mouth, I wnt abuse or say something I dont know about ur religion.

My Heavenly Father and my God, every person spilling innocent blood i.e boko haram and any one in support of their activities, let fire and brimestone rain and fall in their camp and let all their evils turn back upon them..let the rod of the wicked be broken in Jesus' mighty name, Amen!!
Just trying to appease Boko Haram, that's all. Or is that too difficult for y'all to understand ?
Hi Folks,
Let him come if he so wish, but I forbid him to forment trouble! Let the Saints arise and speak!! !saiah 44: 24-25, Job 5: 12, Micah 3: 5-7, Nahum 3: 4-7, Isaiah 47, Numbers 23:23. The land, waters, the heavenlies, and all other elements of nature must resist any evil he's coming with. He'll regret his trip to Nigeria for it will profit him nothing IJN, Amen.
we wouldnt even know if he didnt announce it on facebook. smh
HM! THIS IS SERIOUS!
it not by saying ..it is well. we all must make a stand for what is Right.
I just hope they'll keep a track of him & he'll possibly lead us to awon BH .
Useless country, daft people. They always try to be different doing the wrong things.
This is absolutely despicable...even at this volatile time in the nation...The minister of interior says he granted the visa because the man is not on the nations blacklist...why wont it start one day..arent they in communication with other countries that had rejected his entrance...SAD.
I'm really surprised and disappointed in you Linda. I thought u are Educated and reasonable. I expect you to do your homework and find out the truth before posting such thing. Well, I'm not surprised cos you're not a Muslim, that's why you're being biased and you've forgotten that some LIBers are Muslims too. Note that cos some pple are terrorizing the country doesn't mean Muslims are terrorist. We all know it's for their selfish interest.
I think i just want to say this even if this article is old.
the war raging around the world just shows that there is no more love between different territories and people. Love remains the only Ingredient that can heal and to say something against another because of religion is just cowardly. Even the Heading goes a long way to tell your personalty. Using such stands as a deformation of personalty just because he is a muslim. Just be wise there is Honor in respecting others beliefs. thanks
