Pray for those that are doing should realize themselves and repent
Many people around the world still do not know that in Nigeria several innocent people have lost their lives simply because they were accused of blaspheming Prophet Muhammad.

The church of Jesus Christ in Nigeria at this point must reflect on it's stand and direction regarding matters like this!
In 2002 Nigeria:
A newspaper article about Prophet Muhammad during the Miss World pageant triggered riots. The violence led to over 200 Christians kllled in Kaduna and other cities.
In 2007 Gombe State
A Christian teacher, Christianah Oluwatoyin Oluwasesin, was beaten to death by a mob after being accused of desecrating the Quran.
In 2007 Kano State
Riots broke out after a student was accused of drawing an image of Prophet Muhammad. Churches were burned and several Christians were kllled.
In 2016 Kano State
A woman named Bridget Agbahime, a Christian trader, was murdered by a mob after being accused of blasphemy against Islam during an argument in a market.
In 2022 Sokoto State
A Christian college student, Deborah Samuel Yakubu, was stoned and burned alive by a mob after being accused of insulting Prophet Muhammad in a WhatsApp group.
In 2023 Sokoto State
A man named Usman Buda was beaten to death after being accused of blasphemous comments about Prophet Muhammad.
These tragedies all happened in Nigeria is a call for the Christian body to reflect on her direction and stand. It also remind us that no accusation should justify mob justice or the taking of a hüm@n life.
Every life is sacred.
Justice must always be greater than anger. Human dignity must never be negotiable.
Evang. Dr. Peter Otene.
