BREAKING: Kano Musician Sentenced To Death For Blasphemy Appeals Judgment

Yahaya Sharif-Aminu, a musician sentenced to death for blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad by a Kano Shari’a Court, has appealed the judgment.

Sharif-Aminu was sentenced to death on August 10, 2020, and was given 30 days by the court to appeal the judgment, meaning that the time would lapse on Wednesday, September 9.

In a suit filed on Thursday at the Kano State High Court by his lawyer, Kola Alanipini, Sharif-Aminu said he is dissatisfied with the judgment of the Shari’a Court.

He described the Kano State Penal Law 2000 as unconstitutional, null and void, having grossly violated and conflicted with the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999) as amended and having violated the Human Rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights respectively.

Many insane people do awful things out of evil religious belief, declaring death on a human that breath and talk like them, using religion as a cover the same way Osama Bin laden did.
Revelation 21:8
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the *murderers* the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars-- they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

Exactly what I said would happen. The guy can not and will not be killed by the state on account of blasphemy alone. He might stay in jail for a very long time to come and, hopefully, eventually gets pardoned.

The country don baje sha.

Why not denounce Islam totally and have his freedom and peace of mind? This is 2020 for God's sake, peeps should stop allowing themselves to be emotionally blackmailed by some 12th century backward religion.
If that their Prophet was alive today , he still would have been a racist against Nigerians.. And here some are prepared to kill for his sake.

In a suit filed on Thursday at the Kano State High Court by his lawyer, Kola Alanipini, Sharif-Aminu said he is dissatisfied with the judgment of the Shari’a Court.
When I saw this news, the first thing I was interested in looking for is the advocate for the man and where he is from.

The problem with sharia law when it comes to the issue of blasphemy is that, there is no way you can have an advocate, cos the fate is already sealed and the consequence is death. No lawyer will even come up to stand for the accused cos the Muslims in the north are so fanatical and will even kill the lawyer before leaving the court premise.
So the northern lawyers aren’t always interested in taking up cases on blasphemy cos they know that they aren’t safe with the job

Now that the lawyer to the accused is a Yoruba (south west or north central), there is a light at the end of the tunnel for him.

The case is still in Kano high court, he might not be discharged and acquitted of the case cos it is still within Kano state. No judge wanna die.

The surest thing that will guarantee this man’s freedom is when the case is taken beyond Kano State, perhaps Supreme Court in Abuja

Hello

This isn’t about this current government.

Sharia Law was introduced into these states during Obasanjo’s tenure. And it has been operational since then.

Well...the country is generally not safe atall....if you talk anyhow...DSS go just come carry you.

Meanwhile in other countries,the citizens have Freedom of speech to an extent.

Do you know how many people that blasted GEJ when he was the president? Yet he didn't even do anything to 'em.

The law is man-made and as such can be scrapped off so as to protect the lives it was made for.

Well,na religion matterz sha

With this appeal, I think he will be able to get a fair judgement. Nigeria constitution overrides any state's penal code.

Tumbulum:
that's the most sensible thing to do. Tell them you no longer subscribe to the faith a and therefore you are not bound by sharia court.

Denouncing Islam would only compound his woes.
Sharia criminal laws applies to everybody living within its jurisdiction.
People who claim that it is only for muslims are not saying the truth.
Sure, no one would disturb a non-muslim for not fasting but if they are accused
of blasphemy, Sharia or mob law will take over.
