The problem of religious conflicts and contentions in Nigeria over the years seems to have belied the original conception of religion as a bastion of peace, equity, and tranquility.

The challenge arises then to interrogate the root of the noted restiveness and how to curtail it, in order to make room for a more cordial, inclusive and progressive-minded relationship that will be of great benefit to the growth and development of the nation

France has experienced an increase in religious diversity over the past century. While Catholicism remains the majority religion, Islam has become the second largest religion in the country with approximately 4 million followers. Other religions with a significant presence include Buddhism, Judaism, and Protestantism. Secularism is a fundamental principle of the French Republic, requiring neutrality of the state and freedom of religion. However, debates have emerged regarding certain religious practices and symbols in public spaces and schools.
