An Islamic cleric, , has condemned the gruesome murder of Deborah Samuel, a 200-level student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto state.
Deborah, a student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education, in Sokoto, was murdered by some angry mob last week for allegedly blaspheming against the prophet.

According to him, the prophet’s refusal to avenge the insults non-Muslims rained on him while he was alive, was because he did not want to be tagged a murderer.
“Anyone who kills a non-Muslim who they have agreed to live peacefully with, will not smell the fragrance of Paradise for 40 years. If we think by killing Deborah, people who are not of the same faith with us will stop insulting our prophet, then we are in delusion” he said
