KILLING FOR ALLAH

 KILLING FOR ALLAH

By George Onmonya Daniel

We have now accepted this killing for Allah as a new culture. After Deborah, a 30 years old man was lynched in Lugbe, Abuja, his body set burnt. He was burnt even when he was still alive with Muslims who killed him shouting, "Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!!" 

I waited two days and no condemnation from the authority. The FCT Minister hasn't said a thing and the president who lives in Abuja is mute. Mobs are now the law. They pass judgment and kill instantly. Urged by Shiekhs and Imams and army of supported on social media posting "WE LOVE OUR PROPHET." Some make videos, illiterate young fanatics on drugs, threatening even the Sultan. This is the new Nigerian Islam, sorry Islam in AREWA of Nigeria. They have brought this extremism to the heart of Abuja. Everyone is mute. 

Extremists are holding this country to ransome and some of us are urging in the name of religion that most of them do not even understand. Killing in the name of Allah by mob of Muslims now is legal. Has the Sultan who says he is the leader of Muslims in Nigeria condemned the Abuja Killing? What about the alleged spokesman of Muslims in Yoruba land, the MURIC professor? 

Silence is how we legalise certain behaviour, not just silence, but support. Has Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) condemned the killing? No. It doesn't matter if the young man that was murdered is a Muslim or Christian. This new mob lynching, jungle justice for Allah, must be stopped. 

That this is happening in Abuja of all places is troublesome. These fanatics have imported that menace from Arewa to Abuja. Very angry people, angry at nothing, poisoned by teaching of angry Sheikh, bloodthirsty Shiekhs, terrorists ideology, they have creep into Abuja with this ideology and killed a man. 

The same way as they entered Owo and attacked a church killing over 40 people. The same wickedness. Offa got the attention of our politicians. They are painting the social media with condemnation for campaign. They dare not condemn the Abuja killing for Prophet, for Allah, that one is a no go area.
