The throat of Bridget Agbahime, a trader at Kofar Wambai market in Kano city, was slashed by a member of a mob on Thursday for allegedly blaspheming Prophet Mohammed.
At a meeting with religious leaders and the Igbo community on Friday night, Ganduje read a communique describing the killing as “illegal, unfortunate and regrettable”.
The meeting was chaired by Ganduje and attended by the state chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Ransome Bello, husband of the deceased, Mike Agbahime (a pastor), Islamic scholars and security agencies.
In the six-point resolution, the stakeholders condoled the widower, describing the killing as illegal, unjustifiable and “without her fault”.
Bello said CAN is fully satisfied with the resolutions, adding that “there is nothing better any person would expect more than what you (Ganduje) have done tonight”.
The Eze Ndgibo Kano, Boniface Ibekwe, called on all civil and community leaders to put hands together to ensure lasting peace, urging other governors in Nigeria to emulate Ganduje’s initiatives in ensuring brotherly co-existence.

DeleteWhat does one expect when you are living in the wild with animals

ReplyDeleteWhen a so-called god of a prophet is incapacitated and weak, mortal men fights for such weak god. Shame on ur belief.
ReplyDeleteJustice must be done to the killer of that woman, he should be killed too, & do justice to the hausa muslims in the south East, An Eye for an Eye. God bless Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as one nigeria. Let's stop deceiving ourselves and go our separate ways so that we know that any southerner in the north is truly on his/her own in another country. This country needs to split so that the north can go with their Islamic fanaticism and groundnut. The north has nothing to offer this country that is why they are desperately doing everything possible to hold on to power which the south and southeast lost carelessly.
