Guest guest Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 This program aired today on ABC Radio National (the Australian Broadacsting Corp. not the U.S. network) "The Religion Report" Wednesday 30 April 2003 In Nigeria's recent elections, President Olusegun Obasanjo won an overwhelming but controversial victory, beating his main opponent Muhammadu Buhari by a two-to-one margin. But EU observers pronounced the elections "deeply flawed", and opposition parties have rejected the results. Are we about to witness an intensification of the sectarian Christian/Muslim violence that has killed 10,000 Nigerians over the past four years? Also: Indian holy woman Mata Amritanandamayi - better known as Amma - has been compared to Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa, and imparts her message of unconditional love by hugging everyone who comes to see her. But her visit to Australia - planned for May 1st to 11th - has been cancelled, owing to fear of SARS. transcript: http://www.abc.net.au/rn/talks/8.30/relrpt/stories/s842438.htm Real audio: http://www.abc.net.au/rn/talks/8.30/relrpt/audio/relrpt_30042003_2856.ram The part about Amma is near the end, about 25 minutes into the half-hour program.
