Outrage has continued to trail the killing of a Christian female student, Miss Deborah Samuel by a mob in Sokoto on Thursday over alleged blasphemy with the British Government and the Christian Association of Nigeria joining the calls on the government to bring the perpetrators to justice.

This is just as President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered a probe into the incident even as Muslim clerics expressed divergent views on the justification for the killing.


Deborah Samuel, a 200-level Home Economics student of Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto, was on Thursday said to have made a comment in her school’s WhatsApp platform which her Muslim colleagues considered blasphemous of Prophet Mohammed (SAW) and killed her before setting her corpse ablaze.

One of the students of the college, who witnessed how Deborah was flogged, killed, and burnt described the scene as the most horrible she has ever witnessed. The student who identified herself simply as Rakia, gave an account of how the voice note of the 25-year-old student degenerated into an uncontrollable situation.

Speaking from her parents’ home in Gidan Kaya area of Sokoto State, the visibly shaken student said, “Deborah was my course mate. I just stepped into the class when the uproar on her voice note started.

It was her own course mates that started it. One of them said Deborah dared them by refusing to apologise when she was asked to. It all started with a debate on the upcoming examination on a general WhatsApp platform created for our course mates. One of the students asked her how she passed the last semester’s examination and in response, she said it was ‘Jesus o.’

“Immediately, about three other chats came in from two Muslims and one Christian, telling her to retract the statement. Two students from other departments who over heard some Muslim boys discussing the matter told Deborah’s close friends to prevail on her to retract the statement. But she replied via a voice note on the platform ‘Holy Ghost fire. Nothing will happen to me.

Is it by force that you guys will always be sending this religious stuff in this group? The group wasn’t created for that but rather as a notice on test, assignment, exam, etc, not this nonsense religious posts’

“We were made to understand that some young men were brought from outside before the outrage. I was in class when some of our course mates rushed in, saying ‘there is fire on the mountain o’.

“The Muslim students led the strangers to the class to look for her. In fear, those in the class tried to help her escape and took her to the security post from where they hoped to create a way for her to run outside Already, a cab was waiting outside to drive her straight to the police station. Unfortunately, the mob overpowered everyone who tried to save her. They even threatened to kill anyone who attempted to stand in their way.

Her last word as she pleaded for mercy

She was dragged out, flogged and stoned. The last word in her mouth was ‘what do you hope to achieve with this?’ By then some of our coursemates were making calls to some of our lecturers to save the situation. At a point, all the Christian students fled the school premises. It was when I got home that I heard she was set ablaze. Since the incident, I have been having a flash of her pleading expression. She pleaded for mercy and called out for help but it was far from her. What a cruel way to die,” she said.

Another Muslim student who did not want her name in print kicked against the mob action on the late Deborah. She said, “what happened did not warrant her death. We are calling on the government to make a policy that kicks against attack on anyone accused of blasphemy

This is heartbreaking, I hate religious bigots with every fibre of my being

This has once again exposed the dark underbelly of nigerian society

What happened in Sokoto cannot happen in any developed Islamic country, this is why Nigeria is not developing, it is completely unacceptable and outrageous

Nigeria has degenerated so badly, say No to religious violence

I would have singlehandedly defended her if I was there, I wouldn't mind the outcome

Terrorist

Terrible way to die indeed. This was purely an avoidable death which I'm sorry would have solved when she was beckon upon to do that. Religion of peace indeed. What is so peaceful and tolerant about this religion? Absolutely nothing.

Holy Jeez

Moral lesson from Deborah's tragedy

Be careful of the environment you are before you air your blunt views. It is just like going to Eastern Nigeria and saying something derogatory about Nnamdi Kanu or Ojukwu, that may be the last day of your life. Much of the African society is still uncivilized and act like animals. Do not become a victim. Lets keep unpopular opinions to ourselves.

RIP Deborah. Your blood is on the head of your murderers.

Sad

Slaves

Sad story she should have apologized and saved her life , it would have taken nothing from her , women and trying told their grounds in combustible situations

The Christian students fled the scene. They could not protect their own. Stupid modafuckers...

It wasn't outsider that killed her
It was her fellow students
Her coursemate,
Those on the same platform
Those the same college
These are her murders
Her institution authorities

Vengeance of her blood upon all of them

Muslims are slaves,they will surely hate the bonafide children

She never said anything against Islam and Muhammad she was hated simply for attributing her success to Jesus no matter how we try to interpret the narrative the obvious fact is that these terrorists are pure evil and it is high time christians start protecting themselves. That is why I love the people of Jos try this nonsense there and your charred remains will be cannibalised

Hello, she mentioned Prophet. Maybe you should listen to the VN and get an hausa person to interprete for you. What she said is same thing you cannot say openly in Saudi.
You know these guys can be animals, let them and their religion be for your safety.

There is no reason why we should be called one Nigeria. Let's divide this country. Those people need to face the law. I just pray for the family and the soul of Deborah to rest in peace.

It's a shame that she died this way.
She was killed by her own classmates

Something they could have resloved amicably

Omihanifa:
It's a shame that she died this way

I would have singlehandedly defended her if I was there whether it will cost my life or not

Indirectly you threatening people from speaking out against what is EVIL practice in the society with these your words. You are stylishly encouraging LAWLESSNESS and still expect a country to develop.

Your name " kingsthreat" says it all.

Corrections:

Stop being only vocal on social media. Go to the streets and enforce the FGs laws against lawlessness.
Go an enforce an unenlightened illiterate society not to take laws into their own hands. 90% of those doing this killings are not here so direct your energy to the right place

Islamphobia

Reason why i don't keep a Muslim as a friend or whatever, I greet from a distance and pass.

What's the use of a god if I as a follower will fight the MotherfVcker battle?

The death of Deborah is not because of religion or belief.
It is due to the barbaric nature of Africans and their wicked mentality that killed Ms Deborah.

What is blasphemous about her statement of passing her exams?
How did she insult Mohammed or allah?

There's more to that story.
Students can be very mischievous and evil sometimes.

Anyways am watching in 3D.

Anyone thinking things will ever change is just wasting their precious time. Religious fanatism has been in existence for centuries. The best way is for every society to manage themselves in their own way. Generally, there is a lot of wickedness in Africa, it's the act of wickedness that can make a group of people to willingly vote a goat to preside over them than an intellectual due to religious beliefs and bigotry. Most humans are evolving into more advanced wickedness as time goes by. It's best to identify the group of people that are evolving in negative direction and those people should be left alone to enjoy backwardness, while progressive people should be separated from them.

Evil religion
Evil people
Classmates for that matter,how twisted will your heart have to be to do such a thing.

All Chris having Muslim friends and contacts should be very careful with these intolerant and wicked bastards.

This so sad
