sharrap your mouth there, and don't bring race into the issue, you can fast as an adult as much as you want but don't force minor under your care to do it, that is child abuse period. Upon all the fasting we have been doing in Nigeria, we are still one of the poorest countries in the world.

A Nigerian couple has been arrested in the US for allegedly allowing their teenage son to starve to death and his brother to become severely emaciated during a religious fast.

Wisconsin prosecutors charged Kehinde Omosebi, 49, and Titilayo Omosebi, 48, with child neglect causing death and child neglect causing great bodily harm. Both charges are felonies and carry a combined maximum sentence of 37 years in prison .

Reedsburg Police Chief Timothy Becker says the father went to the police station Sunday to report the death of his 15-year-old son. When police arrived at the family's home they found the dead teen and an extremely emaciated 11-year-old boy.
The mother was also found to be emaciated.

Becker said the father told police he was a minister affiliated with Cornerstone Reformation Ministries and that the family had started a religious fast on July 19. Investigators do not believe the father is a minister and made up the name of the ministry.

Becker says police do not believe the father is a minister..

The younger boy and his mother were brought to the hospital. The mother refused treatment, citing religious reasons, and was taken to the Sauk County Jail.

The 11-year-old is in protective custody at Children’s Hospital in Madison..

I saw this in the news when i drove by at a convenience store in Wisconsin Milwaukee precisely Sunday 2/9/2018


Am a Nigerian but i detest all this ignoramus hiding under religious pretense to do all this shit.
Since i have been here i have never heard from my white man pastor Mike Hammond asking members to go on fasting exercise its only naija churches here that are full all those trash and they still carry their yeye poverty mentality down here too.

Nigerians and this our believe, I remembered my friend's mum who was very religious in naija, but when he went for visiting in the UK her orientation changed completely. When we ask her what happened she told us that God is not that hard to serve, that in London they work and not sleep in church expecting miracle.

Copy n paste

You are right. If it was a white family they will say depression or insanity.

well its not Muslim fast that caused their predicament. The Islamic fast is quite mild ,gentle and comfortable that even a ten year old can under go successfully without qualms, except of course if he/she isn't well

It gladdens my heart that they've been arrested and will be prosecuted. Even if the parents want to starve themselves in the name of some religious bull crap, why starve the innocent child to death as well?

Again, the deity or god they were fasting and praying to couldn't help prevent the death of the child. It also won't help them to avoid long prison terms.

When they eventually get locked up in the cold prison cells, I hope they can reflect on their stupidity and see how religion had ruined their lives.

No, Christianity done that to them because one of shiit pastor managed to brainwash them over the phone from Nigeria.
When you are a Christian, even if you reside in USA, your mumu button is still in the hand of your daddy GO. Lol.

Some christians will ofcourse never see this one! Imagine thousands of similar cases here in AFRICA...they will say words like "that innocent child is a witch/possessd" or say thats "how the Lord wants it" And just bury the child like that. And thats how the case will die down..Well! a case is not really a case if it wasn't a case in the first place.
RELIGION without common sense is a TIMEBOMB. Africans are just superdumb when it comes to religion.

It is well with you.
