Suspicion Sparks Stampede at
Kano Mosque

A suspected terrorist triggered
panic and stampede at a Friday
mosque in Kano while the imam
was delivering his sermon.

The incident occurred on Friday at
Ahalul Sunna mosque opposite
Rijiyar Zaki mosque along New
Site road of Bayero University,
Kano, when the mosque was full
with worshippers for Juma’at
prayer.

The panic and stampede broke out
in the premises of the mosque at
the peak of the sermon by the
imam as people began running
and scaling the big wall of the
mosque for their safety.

One of those injured, Umar Farouk
Dandawaki, said: "I sustained
injuries on my legs and shoulders
because I jumped over the wall of
the mosque for my life.

"The suspect who looked like a
mad man attempted to be close to
the Imam but was stopped by the
mosque security."

Farouk added that the quick
intervention of Good Samaritans
and policemen deployed at the
mosque quelled the tension.

It was learnt that the suspect was
also taken away by the policemen
for questioning.

Oh my God!!!!!! Not again

Hmm.. That is what we call "BEEN SECURITY CONSCIOUS"
Imagine entering a mosque now holding AV chord and a Motorola walkie talkie together. I don't think that innocent person will make it out of that place alive.

I can only imagine and visualise how the whole drama went.
