Online users and media platforms have reported that the former president deleted post syndicated on his Facebook and Twitter pages about the murder of Deborah Samuel after receiving a barrage of threats from religious fanatics who asked him to forget his presidential ambition.

As reported by PEOPLES GAZETTE, “Meanwhile, a Sokoto government official has threatened that more Christians in Nigeria will be murdered if they say things considered disrespectful to their revered Prophet Muhammad, following the gruesome killing of Deborah Samuel, a Christian female student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Wamako.

PEOPLES GAZETTE reports that Anas Mohammad Sani, a personal assistant to the Sokoto finance commissioner, according to his Facebook bio wrote, “Muslims don’t take insults against beloved prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in whatever form”.

Mr Sani added, “The earlier our Christian brothers and sisters understand this, the better for all of us. May the recklessness of our tongues never drive us to (an) early grave.” Jamb Result

He further stated, “We have just a life to live and enjoy. We can make noise on Twitter and condemn the mob action using the Queen’s English. However, that cannot bring back Deborah back to life. More so, if anyone will repeat it tomorrow, the probability of being served same meal is 99.9%”.
