Imam Abdullahi Abubakar Honoured By US For Saving Christians In Plateau by CastedDude: 10:06am On Aug 20, 2018
The United States has honoured the septuagenarian Imam Abdullahi Abubakar who saved about 300 Christians from attackers in Nghar Yelwa village of Barkin Ladi local government of the Plateau state. The cleric was recognised and honoured at an event organised by the US embassy in Jos as Nigerians were urged to emulate the cleric's gesture. 

The Imam saved about 300 persons on June 24 when suspected Fulani herdsmen invaded about 15 communities in the Barkin Ladi LGA, killing over 200 persons.

The people, mainly Christians, were said to be fleeing from a neighbouring village in the Barkin Ladi LGA when the Imam hid them in his house and mosque.

“I hid the women in my personal house and after that, I took the men into the mosque and hid them there,” Imam Abubakar had stated.

However, the assailants caught up with the Imam, forcefully demanding that he release those who were Christians in the mosque.

But the cleric said deceived the bandits that all those in the mosque were Muslims and upon hearing this, the attackers left him and continued with their killing elsewhere.

Now that the US deem it fit to reward the Imam that saved Christians, I hope they punish Imam Buhari (the spiritual head of VIOLENCE in Nigeria).

I'm a Muslim and Islam doesn't preach violence. I say no to extremism. Even the prophet (saw) lived peacefully with non Muslims.

Those who are constituting nuisance in the Name of Islam are transgressors and their waterloo can't wait to consume them.

Not all those who practice Islam are terrorists.




Let me just say something really quickly. There are times in the Bible where God supposedly told 'His children' to wipe out clans and take their women and children as slaves. The early Christians (and Jews) had been terrorists too hundreds of years ago during the Crusades. The cycle continues. The problem with this world is religion.

At the very minimum, this lays further credence to the claim that the conflict is religious and or ethnic.

The oppressed people of the world must remember brotha Malcolm X when he said " Stop using religion as an excuse to be a coward".

US and celebrating mediocrity

Someone prevented people from dying in their appointed time

And instead of charging him to court, they are awarding him

Nigeria is becoming too overpopulous

Fulani herdsmen have to do something serious about it
