Nigerian Singer Sentenced To Death, Sharif-Aminu Appeals Conviction At Supreme Court, Wants Blasphemy Declared UnconstitutionalSharif-Aminu is asking the apex court to declare that the offence of blasphemy is not recognised in Nigerian law.Yahaya Sharif-Aminu, a musician sentenced to death by hanging in 2020 after being convicted of blasphemy, has approached the Supreme Court of Nigeria to challenge his conviction.
According to the documents, Sharif-Aminu is asking the apex court to declare that the offence of blasphemy is not recognised in Nigerian law. The death sentence was passed on Sharif-Aminu by a Sharia court, which a high court overturned. It, however, denied the musician bail and ordered his re-trial before another Sharia court judge due to irregularities in the original trial.
“And the Appellant states that the names and addresses of the persons directly affected by the appeal are those set out in paragraph 5.”
That's why we must say NO to Muslim - Muslim ticket, this their evil agency can not prevail o
In fact,,,this is barbaric. If God is like us, no one else will exist.
He is a free man. The Nigerian constitution is one not two. If any man blasphems against God, he is to be pitied because God will visit or forgive him. No man should fight for God.
Am just amazed at the way Islam is practiced in northern Nigeria. Is Kuwait, united Arab Emirate and also Dubai not Islamic nation's?
Zoological Republic of animals kingdom
Do you think sick old Tinubu will have support of the northern Muslims if the Muslims open their eyes? It’s not possible. Religion is their opium. They will vote a boko haram member as Vice President once it turns religious. That’s religious slavery.
Guys please be calm. I’ve spent time in Northern Nigeria with a lot of Muslims. A lot of them, especially those who have been to western, southern and eastern Nigeria and also abroad know that the practice is stupid. Their elite use Islam to control them
Stop using the social media to attacking each other. No one is clean & only God Almighty Will enthrone His lover. Religion, ethnicity nd sentiments should be avoided for peaceful coexistence. May Almighty help us.
He created all with His spoken word and can fight if He wills and destroy any if He wills. Therefore needs no human to fight and defend Him because He is all powerful and all knowing
El rufai of kuduna was caught in the act of blasphemy against Christians but he's free walking around. Shari'a in some part of northern Nigeria is meant for the poor not the rich. Northern Muslims get sense for once and librate yourself.
Sharia law has no place in Nigeria. We have a federal constitution
This nonsense should stop in Nigeria
Sahara reporters ti ya wereey with their headlines who no read well we not see well 😂😂😂😂
Illiterate immensely contribute to this Radical islam in northern Nigeria, and they're killing their self over a non existing god's Sometimes I keep wondering what keeps Nigerian together to this moment You can't see a southern Muslim kill someone in the name of Islam.
Let's how it will go..
May he go to hell.
People think they can fight for God.
In a sane society, there's nothing like blasphemy. If blasphemy should be taken serious, then all religious persons would be guilty - including those who call others pagans.
The question that is still on my lips since I was born is 'how come did I find myself in this Nigeria'?
Blasphemy is an established and consistent executive law in the north and it's in the vains of the north.
S.O.S. .... same old shit .. in a modern world
How sad the rate you guys are going on spreading fears on your so call religious matter especially the Muslim, you guys have been trying to triggered something but always diffused, let's learn to respect each other religions and speak peace to each other always
I wonder what muslims serve sha
Sharia law at your own Risk
Let go back to our ancestors religious and stop worship imported religion's .
Most Nigeria are not open minded people because religious believes totally blind their eyes to seeing the reality of life.
Lol
God let the case favour this man and other oppressed Northerners
It is unconstitutional. The state is supposed to be a secular one.
MissModupsy Asking the Supreme Court to declare blasphemy unconstitutional is not realistic when it is indeed constitutional in Sharia Law. The quickest way out is to convert to another religion so that you're not tried under Sharia law.
Well done 👍
It is stupidity and dogmatism of infinitesimal order for a mere mortal to even think he can defend a god, let alone the supreme being, God Almighty. Those who worship the god of thunder will never for once defend him by killing someone for blasphemy their god, but rather, the god
Nigeria is a circular state, why is religiosity a priority. Yet no corrupt elite has been convicted by any religion or is religion corrupt? YeyeDeySmell
For the sake of common sense abolish all blasphemy laws....
Aboki don wiseup.
Nonsense law
God don’t kill people people kill people.
Wish u all the best
'if you're without sin, be the first to cast the stone' Religion, ethnicity, corruption are our biggest problem in Nigeria We act like the prophets were from our towns. Like we know them better than those that brought in the religion to our country. May God help us
African Muslim is very irritating,no wonder they very poor,so nasty and evil, I will rather die instead of me to near Muslim talk more of becoming a member of it
If you're still supporting Tinubu and Shettima, get ready
👌😊
This is scary seriously and God warned you don't kill your neighbor,who wrote the law for sharia? You take life you can't give, are you God? We have two law in Nigerian, one for Southern Nigeria and one for the Islamic law. Muslim-Muslim ticket is dangerous.Christians be warned
Religion is so barbaric in Africa. No wonder we are backward
You can witness this act among the misinformed and uneducated.
