The case you cited is that of murder by a MOB and not one sanctioned and executed by the STATE.

I don't think any execution on crime of blasphemy has been carried out by the state since the return of democracy.

izzou:


There's no influential Muslim living, especially from the North that will speak against this.

As much as we feel this is an extreme use and abuse of power, the young man involved should also have respected people's beliefs.
If you don't believe in Mohammed, why not look the other way and respect other people?

He is most likely going to be killed, and nothing would happen, because this is Nigeria

I feel for him sha

AlabiJ:
Is it the same Peter Obi that is yet to comment on the Igbos vs. Dss clash that recently took place in Enugu that you are expecting to talk about this? Una go wait tire. Both Peter and Atiku are hypocrites.

Serial presidential aspirant, Atiku Abubakar, has been trending on Twitter for choosing to keep quiet concerning the young man who was accused of committing blasphemy against Prophet Mohammed in a song he circulated via WhatsApp in March 2020.

According to Nigerian Tweeps, the serial presidential aspirant who is considered vocal and known to air his concerns on policies and issues plaguing the nation has been quiet ever since the news broke that Yahaya Sharif-Aminu, the young man fingered for blasphemy, has been denied access to lawyers even as the 30-day deadline given to him to appeal the judgment lapses on September 9.

Atiku who took to Twitter to celebrate Arsenal's win against Liverpool has since been dragged for being insensitive, a religious fanatic like and political. The likes of Peter Obi and other presidential aspirants are currently being dragged alongside.

omenka:
He isn't going to be killed. It won't happen in a democracy. You can bet on that.

The political backlash would be too much to bear, from outside and within the country.

LMAO

Truth is, Peter Obi is a light weight in the East and delving into Enugu matters might destroy him. Plus, taking sides could put his political ambition in jeopardy. It could prevent him from defecting tomorrow, if need be and speaking against the IPOB will demarket him. This should tell you no politician is worth dying for. They are all after what they can get and make for themselves and not for the people they intend to lead.

Must you always show your stupidity!

Meanwhile all these are just misplaced priorities! Those calling out Buhari, Tinubu, Atiku and co Should know they're not Judges.
They all should rather volunteer and appeal the judgement before it elapsed as required by law.

helinues:
What has Presidi Buhari said about this?

Brooklynsouth:
Tinubu is a Muslim and I want to know what where he stands ,oga Tinubu support for or against make we know who you be aren't you a potential presidential aspirant?

mu2sa2:
Don't mind the mumu comment. The man was tried by a court of competent jurisdiction under an existing law. What do they want Atiku ot tinubu to say. Criticize the court or what?

I revel much in theories and would like to believe the number work for official killings. Unofficially, I strongly believe the number is around 20-30 deaths annually, with only a few being reported.

Below is the case of the invigilator that was killed for seizing a Quran and throwing it outside a window: https://www.csw.org.uk/2007/06/05/press/637/article.htm

topcatking:
Can people stop being st.pid for a moment?

Is atiku your président ? Vice président ? Senate président ? Does he hold any leadership position? Same as OBI?

Why not question the LEADERS...your president, vice president, senate president and minister of justice who HAVE THE POWER TO FORCE A CHANGE.

HAS ANY OF THEM SPOKEN ABOUT the sentencing yet?

Nigerians need to stop being unfortunate and actually THINK, before calling people out.

AlabiJ:


Let's forget about Kano for a minute brah since Kano is not their constituency. Why hasn't Peter Obi commented on the Ipob vs. Dss matter?? I recall how igbos/Igbos always come here to drag and blackmail Tinubu and Osinbajo for not 'speaking' whenever any thing happens in the SW. Na una turn to tell us why una messiah Peter Obi is conspicuously silent concerning what happened to Igbos in Enugu. What is good for Tinubu/Osinbajo is also good for ibo leaders.

Nchenches:


Omemka Sai Baba.

The only person who can stop the killing of the musician under Islamic Sharia criminal laws is PMB.


But PMB vowed in 2001 before a large gathering of Moslems in Kaduna that he would not stop until Islamic Sharia criminal justice system is used all over Nigeria.

PMB appointed a Chief Justice for Nigeria who pronounced that Islamic Sharia Criminal Justice System be included in Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution.


Do you expect PMB to renege on his promise to Moslems?

Abusadiq01:
One wonderful thing about d shari'a is dat it can never be politicized... Never!!!

omenka:
Oga, it won't happen. No one is executing anyone on account of blasphemy. It wouldn't be the first time he reneged on a promise he made would it?

Do I get the feeling some of you are praying he gets killed just so you can lash out at Buhari or what?
