Chrisitianity & Islam: Mrs Fashola reveals how she and Gov Fashola managed their religion and marriage


First Lady of Lagos state, Dame Abimbola Fashola
has opened up on how she and Governor Fashola
have been able to manage their home despite their
religious differences.
"We got married in the Church, the Catholic
church, that is who I am, that's where you
will take me from and that was done. But
ever since then my husband has practiced
his religion and I have practiced mine. There
is no trouble whatsoever. My husband has
his own part of the house where he prays, I
have my own altar there with my crucifix and
my rosary and everything and everyone is
minding their own business. When its time for
family prayer, we pray. I pray mine to the
name of Jesus Christ while he prays in
Allah's name & the children understand all
that. My children are baptized and they go to
church. When he wants them to go to
mosque with him they go to the mosque with
him. " she told Channels TV.
Mrs Fashola also revealed that to get her husband
to do something she wants personally, he would ask
her to put it in writing so that he would not forget
and give it urgent attention. She said it has become
important now that everything that she needs to be
done has to be documented and passed to her
husband because that is how he says he can
manage the homefront and the state effectively.
