Decades ago in Nigeria there were heavy division but now it's minor but I must add it depends on the tribe because moderate christian and Muslim populations of each religion which is the majority in nigeria live together in peace but the fanatics(which is low but still significant numbers) which is mostly amongst the Muslim tribe of the north(hausa) don't get along with christains from any tribe and once in a while stir up trouble in nigeria. So to answer your question in general there are not constant divisions or fights between the religions in nigeria; basically majority of people in nigeria live peace and respect each others reigion but there is a invisible divide between people of both religions.
