For Moslems in Nigeria as I mentioned at other occasions, at least twice, we were overrun by the colonialists and our way of life was drastically changed… And one of the things we lost for being overrun by the colonialists is for us to be denied the freedom to practice our religion as it is or as it was and as it has always been. But, God in his infinite mercy brought this independence back to us through a democratic system of government. It is a legal responsibility God has given us within the context of one Nigeria to continue to uphold the practice of Sharia wholeheartedly…. I will continue to show openly and inside me, the total commitment to Sharia movement that is sweeping all over Nigeria, God willing, we will not stop the agitation for the total implementation of the Sharia in the country. - General M. Buhari (Ancestor) (The Guardian, 27 Aug, 2001)
