A group, identified as Ex-Muslims of Nigeria, has denounced the unlawful killing of Deborah Samuel, a student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto State, by a mob of students over the alleged insult of Prophet Muhammad .The group hence called on the government to review laws regulating the offence of blasphemy in the country.
"We condemn in the strongest terms the despicable murder of a student at Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto over alleged blasphemy. The failure by the Muslim clerics to condemn the killing has underscored how intolerant Islam is when it comes to blasphemy. Nigeria is a secular country, and even though we don't encourage provocation and incitement, the decision by the students to take laws into their hands is condemnable.
"We call on the authorities to take serious measures to curtail the growing extremism among Muslims in northern Nigeria, and the perpetrators of this dastardly act must be brought to book. Blasphemy is an ancient treasonable felony in Islam, but the law is no longer relevant today. "We, therefore, call on the authorities to not only ensure the killers are punished but also work to outlaw blasphemy laws in Nigeria because it is irrelevant in this civilized world. Blasphemy is a hindrance to the democratic system in which freedom of expression is an integral part of it," the statement added.

Medicines after death, why are they still destroying Christians churches and properties there?
They are not Muslims.
Good
Mad people
There is not like blasphemy in Islam, Deborah must get justice. End_Blashphemy
That idiot that killed this pretty innocent girl was rejoicing thinking he has made heaven with 77 virgin . Watch that video and see how he was rejoicing like someone that won world cup ! One Nigeria is a scam . We Christian's want a descent society .
May her gentle soul Rest in Peace
Jungle justice is unislamic, those involved should be brought to justice.
Sahara reportes stop posting fake news pls
The justice must be served severely on those idiots.
BernardUdoye why are they confusing themselves.where did Nigeria moslems learn to kill for Mohammed.
ICC UnitedNations dnc bbcnews EuropeanUnion . This is the life of an average nigeria when the government are supporting terrorist. How long shall we pay with our blood for one nigeria
No Presidential aspirant ever condemn killing of the young lad, Atiku typed and deleted, while other popular ones including Tinubu, Osibanjo etc never dropped an ink. Dear Nigerians, rejected election and insist on referendum or breakup
Which Muslim group is this? Curse on this group. I think you should investigate the root of the incident before you can make such utterances.
Which justice for her death,in this Nigeria Sharia judiciary?
You wll soon go down together in shaa allah 🙏
All these are just social media show up. Nothing will happen cus the government is fully in support of the killing. If it was a Muslim that was killed by a Christian, you'll hear that man called Buhari come out to order the security. But because he is part of it, what do we get?
They is nothing like Nigeria or nigerArea revolution is the answer Christina must start fight back foolani Muslim terrorist now
Una kill leader of tomorrow bcos of leader of the past wey e bones don decay for grave... see backwardness 😕 make we divide pls
We have line and limit that most not be crossed, our lives is worthlessness and meaningless when that line is crossed and we the Muslims are still breathing.
Religion did us dirty...so many will be killed in the bear future for same. It is sad. It's not even about education. Education never cures it. They were taught so from when they couldn't understand or read the Quran. How do you tell a child that is grown that what you taught him
Leveticus law against blasphemy doesn't stand as Jesus came in the new Testament and abolished old laws. The only sin that is not forgivable is the sin against the Holy Spirit and that too is not punishable by death here on earth. But then even if I go deeper many won't understan
Confused Sahara. Muslim group outside and ex-Muslim group inside.
Is this their first time during this Buhari tenure? Let them continue,we Christian's are doing exactly what JESUS taught us,to be MEEK,KIND, GENEROUS,LOVE, PEACEFUL ..e.t.c. I know for sure that a good tree can never bring forth bad fruits:NEVER
Stupid sahara
Oh It was once relevant? Jokes🤧
Christian should stay far away with this wicked religious bigots till we divide the country, evidence,we are not one and will never be one, never make friends with them or school with them or argue, RIP sis,we will figt 4u
Muhammad was an ordinary guy that conned people into believing some imaginary Allah sent him, he's not worth killing for
the kind of system of government we hv,the kind of democracy we observe I hv read nd researched on a lot of democracy nd I hv found none in which this kind of nonsense goes scot free to the extent….,
Uhmmmm so I took my time to write this Let’s be clear that this is not something I usually do but this 1 got to me I’m talking about the Deborah or Dorcas lynching/burning incident I’m going to quit rambling nd go straight to point…I’m sitting here and am trying to understand
Very wicked people!
Both islam and christianity is a scam. Religious bigotry I wont follow a religion that promotes killing of fellow being Leveticus C24 V14 I am a believer of God and not a church or mosque devotee
Lori iro
where were you people when the president of Nigerian humanist association mr mubarak bala was sentenced for 24 years imprisonment by a judge in kano high court for insulting prophet Mohammed in kaduna?
No where in Quran for anyone to fight for prophet Muhammad or kill anyone for talking against prophet Muhammad..... This is ungodly people... We are not in one nation now...
It is no longer relevant. Deborah killers must be punished if Nigeria will move forward . A believer must not fight for your GOD, allow your GOD to fight for himself.
The ablution of a cat, na syle to thief meat from pot
Who ever it is that brought Religion to Africa and to Nigeria Made a big mistake
Make God punish all of them in support of this. Muhammad dey Mad with all due respect, come burn me, I dey mile 2 Estate, Lagos.. I dey go field go ball idiots
Omoh I pity this girl so much, before I go get better e go reach a week or I delete my Twitter and Instagram, I feel sorry for your parent, R.I.P queen
