From Nigeria-While the Constitution of the Federal Republic has made attempts to separate the State from religious groups, the line that ought to detach the two is thinning. For instance, politicians go to religious bodies to seek prayers and political support. In turn, religious men offer their opinions on how the state should be governed. Sometimes, it gets messy, as it is today. What should be the relationship between the Church and the State; should men of God who are supposed to be neutral take sides in political matters without restraints; where should the romance between the church and politics stop? Some clerics believe that though it is good to tell politicians the truth, men of God should not get too involved because of the dangers it portends, as put together by CHRIS IREKAMBA.
