Buhari has no problem shaking hands with females (photos)

There's an on-going debate on Twitter over Buhari's handshake with the new Mrs Oshiomhole. Some very conservative Nigerians say it's against his religious values and so, inappropriate. Read here. But president-elect Buhari doesn't seem to have a problem shaking hands with females. He's done it a few times before. See more photos after the cut...



 His wife also shakes hands of men...

  1. Why is this even an issue? Once you are in politics you have to shake hands for diplomacy sake

    14. If you are not happy with what Buhari has done please ask for asylum in the extremists sections of Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq or better still ask for your own caliphate. Nigeria has gone past people like you who try to use religion and tribe to divide us. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

  8. They shouldn't forget he's the president of a country, and many situations will come where he has to shake hands of females. E.g meeting a female president of another countty etc.. So they need to take a chill pill.

  25. Buhari himself is a sharia proponent.He was carried away by mrs oshimole's exceptional beauty.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Buhari is just showing that he is an enlightened man. I dont know why these hypocrite muslim fanatics are seeing it as a big deal. Handshake and hug is the European culture. It is a kind gesture and a way of showing peace. Muslims are the biggest problem we have in the world today. They cut people's hands, they stone people to death, the do suicide bombing etc. It is because of muslim religion that boko-haram is killing us today. Who are you to judge or kill people that God created when you yourself is a sinner. Pls let Buhari be.

    3. The sharia law doesn't affect the Christians in any way so if the choose to implement such law upon themselves it's their issue. Every religion has fanatics so don't be stupid enough to say Muslims are the only problems we have in this country. Ignorant people!

  29. Maybe the people arguing this have constant electricity and security. Those of us in real naija want him to tackle bigger issues than handshake for women. He is president of the federal republic and not Islamic republic of Nigeria.

  31. See Linda and my fellow LIB reader, the issue isn't whether GMB has a problem shaking hands or not, he's just one in a Global faith of over two billion Muslims, so does his action changes the doctrine of the faith? No, it's just like in the monastery, monks aren't suppose to get married and have kids are they? But when a monk goes contrary to this doctrine, does he violet societal norm? No, but the oath of servitude he took has been violeted. So Buhari and every other Muslim leader is not answerable to no one but their creator on this issue, but let the fact be made clear, in Islam it is prohibited and no level of civilisation will change what is forbidden religious.

  34. Listen guys, this issue shouldn't be up for debate anyway, it's prohibited in Islam period. No amount pressure about civilisation or desire to feel accepted or fit in will alter Islamic position on this and Buhari doing doesn't make it right being a Muslim that he is

  42. Muslims should stop killing people. God gives life and takes life that he has created. You have no right to take another man's life that God has created for whatever religious belief. Let God be the one to judge the person. You that is judging the person, are you clean yourself?
