Muhammad And Jesus Share Birthday Back To Back. See What People Are Saying About it

It's the most wonderful time of the year, as the old song goes, as the magic of Christmas reached its anticlimactic fervor on Christmas Eve; a time where holiday preparations and reunions with friends and loved ones consumes everyone. Twitter trended the hashtags #ChristmasEve and #Christmas, tracking every tweet that expressed special and odd moments of the festive season.

MUHAMMAD

In a rare and ironic clash of dates, Eid-el-Maulud, the annual but roving birthday celebration of Moslem founder and prophet Muhammad happened to fall this year on Christmas Eve, a day before the annual and fixed birthday celebration of Christian founder and messiah Jesus Christ – the world's two largest religions, Christianity and Islam, sharing the same holiday season in a year that has seen a great amount of bloodshed from the radical strain of Islam against not only Christians and Jews but also non-zealot moslems and unbelievers alike. Nevertheless, the goodwill of these back to back high holidays in 2015 was not lost on believers and observers, as a time for healing. Here's how twitter responded to the trend #ProphetMuhammad.

Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, stated on Thursday that the government has defeated Boko Haram. The Minister's claim was met with wide criticisms from all corners, especially on social media, considering almost daily news of fresh Boko Haram atrocities, which have not calmed the fear of Nigerians that the terror group is still at large and active. Here's how Twitter responded to the bold statement.

Temitope ‏@topcomfy

Liar liar, pants on fire"@Gidi_Traffic: "@Austynzogs: "Today, I can report that the war against Boko Haram is largely won… Lai Mohammed""

ayo isaac ‏@Zictoure

Why do you guys take this Lai Mohammed man seriously? Everybody knows he's paid just to talk, even if it doesn't make sense.. #wrongportfolio

Roland Numofagha ‏@Roland_speaks

The Nigerian Army should be the ones telling Nigerians and the world that Boko Haram has been defeated not Buhari or even Lai Mohammed

THE Samuel's LEGACY ‏@iAmSamuelaboki

The world has become a global village needless to say, but Lai Mohammed has chosen to disgrace Nigeria with needless and dangerous statements.

Nnamdi Anekwe-Chive ‏@nnamdianekwe

Lai Mohammed and motley gang of Villa Volunteers assailed our military and elevated Boko Haram's monstrous activities to great heights.

iBelieve ‏@fransysok

Lai Mohammed: Do not give undue publicity to Boko Haram

BH: Attack, kills 10s

Media: silence..

Lai Mohammed: We have defeated Boko Haram

iBelieve ‏@fransysok

During GEJ, the yardstick for measuring success against Boko Haram was rescue of #ChibokGirls. Today, the yardstick is Lai Mohammed.

OLUWAFEMI ‏@olufemisp

On B'Haram, Lai Mohammed's govt set the exam questions for themselves, marked the scripts, and have declared the results. Its an 'A'!

Paul C Nwabuikwu ‏@paul_nwabuikwu

Information Minister Lai Mohammed says the war against terrorism has been won. Hope Boko Haram knows it has been defeated.

SILENCE THE VIOLENCE ‏@smile_fineface

Don't disown him plz" @mtimisola: @Omojuwa at this point I'll say Lai Mohammed is representing his name ALONE and not the Federal Government

Some Igbos linking this with baby factory. That's highly pathetic of you guys. She was raped which means forced S3x without her consent while you guys willingly allowed yourselves to be impregnated due to the love of money!

Where are the Chibok girls, was it a scam?
