Northern youths support death of woman killed in Kano

On Thursday, June 2, an elderly woman identified as Bridget Agbahime  from Imo State  was murdered after she was said to have blasphemed against Prophet Mohammed at Kofar Wambai market by Yan’roba in Kano state. The woman’s death has sparked reactions on social media about religion and whether blasphemy is punishable by death. Most Nigerians have condemned the killing but according to some posts on social media, it seems some people are actually in support of the killing.
Ganduje condoled the husband of the deceased, describing the killing of his wife as illegal and unacceptable. He added that all the stakeholders should publicly condemn the killing of the victim, all Islamic and Christian leaders should engage in public enlightenment of their followers to prevent recurrence of such atrocious crimes. However, the comments are backing the move of the Kano youths and condemning Governor Ganduje and President Muhammadu Buhari for not supporting it. Read their reactions below: Hassan Mahmoud Mohammed wrote: “…religious issues are very sacred. Islam has an automatic fatwa that any one that insult the Holy prophet Mohammed SAW should be promptly killed. This is a religious injunction that every Muslim is compelled to carry out. We are constrained by that.”

Usman Lawan Tanko wrote: “Muslim is a religion of peace but we will not tolerante such kind of stupidity to our noble prophet. I swear without any exception any body who did it again or try to will expect the same consequences or above that. BE CAREFUL.
