Will the governor sign the execution? Many of these guys are still on prison after sentencing to death. Governors don't usually append their signature.

What sort of whataboutism is this?!

Are you unhappy that a criminal was convicted because he's a pastor?

Do you know how many bandits have been neutralised by the army and how many innocent northerners have paid the ultimate price innocently?

There is no selective justice here at all. Stop insinuating what isn't.

You're unhappy that someone from a demographic that you love is hitting the headline for the wrong reasons. That's a symptom of bigotry.

You probably would have freed the criminal if you had the means. People like you are why the country is stagnant.

Pastor: One of the evil militating against the progress in Nigeria with their partners in crime, polithiefcians, corrupt judges, top corrupt civil servants, with their gullible members and followers, the indirect enabler of these shenanigans and sheeples who can never see any moral wrong among these corrupt lost souls. Although we have some good pastors who are just few in numbers but they’re unpopular.

I would. If terrorists can be termed as repentant then Kirikiri should be emptied by now. Selective justice is the worst form of injustice

The governor is also a pastor i really doubt he will sign the death penalty of a fellow pastor.

In other words, they should not have caught this man or better still they should have freed him, since no fulani had been sent to trial. What an excuse for a human being.

Selective justice is the worst form of injustice. By now nobody should still be in prison if terrorists are being termed repentant and given money and gifts
