尼日利亚最高伊斯兰机构拒绝美国对伊斯兰教教法的批评, 而一个基督教团体则警告说, 如果不将伊斯兰教教法从宪法中删除, Nigeria’s top Islamic body rejects U.S. criticism of Sharia, while a Christian group warns of national分裂 if Sharia isn't removed from the constitution.

Ndi Igbo世界联盟警告尼日利亚政府, 如果不从宪法中删除伊斯兰教教法, 将面临国家分裂的风险, The Ndi Igbo Worldwide Union warns Nigeria’s government that failing to remove Sharia from the constitution risks national breakup, citing legal dualism and rising insecurity, including high-profile attacks on Christians, as unsustainable. 它要求进行宪法改革,敦促在世俗法律制度或独立的伊斯兰飞地之间作出选择,警告不采取行动可能导致和平分离或暴力分裂。 It demands constitutional reform, urging a choice between a secular legal system or a separate Islamic enclave, warning inaction could lead to either peaceful secession or violent fragmentation. 与此同时，尼日利亚最高沙里亚委员会拒绝美国国会批评伊斯兰教法的报告，称其具有误导性和外国干涉，并主张伊斯兰教法受宪法保护，仅经同意适用，且不对暴力负责，暴力归咎于恐怖主义、盗匪和影响所有信仰的治理不善。 Meanwhile, Nigeria’s Supreme Council for Shariah rejects a U.S. congressional report criticizing Shariah laws, calling it misleading and foreign interference, and asserts Shariah is constitutionally protected, applied only by consent, and not responsible for violence, which it blames on terrorism, banditry, and poor governance affecting all faiths.
