| Outrage Over Sheikh Jingir Inciting Video Against Peter Obi, Igbos by Pakute(op): 7:13pm On Jul 14, 2025 |
Controversial Islamic cleric, Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir, has come under fire as many Nigerians have roundly condemned him over an inciting video where he openly said the Fulani people will never forgive the Igbo for killing First Republic politician, Sir Ahmadu Bello. Bello was the Sardauna of Sokoto, during the 1966 coup led by Maj. Chukwuma Kaduuna Nzeogwu, which many have come to refer as the ‘Igbo Coup’. The Jos, Plateau State-based Sheikh Jingir who is the National Chairman of the Izala Islamic Movement, stirred controversy following a sermon he made on Friday where he harshly criticized a group of Islamic scholars led by an Igbo Muslim scholar, Sheikh Sambo Rigachukwu, who hosted the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, and some leaders of the opposition coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC). During the meeting with Sheikh Rigachukwu, Obi was dressed in a traditional Hausa attire which apparently got Sheikh Jingir angry, leading him into making the inciting comments during his sermon. Expressing anger and disapproval at the visit, Sheikh Jingir who spoke with anger in the video, said in Hausa language: “If those scholars are not insane, why would you dress someone from the tribe that killed our Sardauna in Hausa garments? We will never forgive the Igbo for that. Shame on you for receiving the killer of Sardauna! How can you welcome them". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8r-TtZ83f4&pp=0gcJCfwAo7VqN5tD

Ewooo!!! 2027 started early. You will begin to hear different songs and messages being released in every part of the north if Obi happens to get the presidential ticket. It happened during last election but on a low-key. That's why Obi couldn't get anything in the core north. This sentiment isn't going anywhere anytime soon. |

LagosOrigin:Lol, this one is talking about Plateau state, what's the business of Plateau with core Muslim north already resisting Obi?. If they can be angry with him wearing an Hausa attire, do you think they want to see him or his tribe in Aso rock?. Despite digging boreholes and bowing in mosques, he's still being rejected. |

I can bet an arm and a leg that Tinubu paid that Sheikh. If you don't know how low APC can go to propel propaganda against Obi and Igbos, then you don't know politics. This is why I advise Obi to be open to an Atiku-Obi ticket on whatever party, let's see how well they can convince a Sheik to speak against Atiku in favour of Tinubu. ![]() In 2027, we shall neutralise all their propaganda antics. Insha Allah.. ![]() |

Tochi3:If Ndigbo are saying the truth, Northerners too are saying the truth, both of you are saying the truth, Lol. And I guess, Chidi Odinkalu, DJ Switch & co are singing the praises of Buhari's exit. |

Are you wise at all? He said he will not forgive Obi and Igbos because of Amadu Bello. Is Obi the killer of Amadu Bello? What about the millions of Igbos killed in the uncivil war? Truth is theh never expected Igbos to survive, how much more being on top!!! LagosOrigin: |

Putindbutt:There are always haters who will never agree no matter what you do. In the case of this man and others like him, they are a very small minority. Plateau has many tribes and more than 1 religion. For Tinubu and his supporters though, there are more haters than lovers. First they backstabbed Buhari after he handed over, then they alienated their partners, trying to take over everything despite Buhari sharing large chunks with them. They have realized that partnership with Tinubu’s clique never works, it ends up in betrayal and backstabbing |
