The Islamic group contended that Yerima’s marriage was strictly a private affair and that he should be left alone and warned the Senate to disband the panel it set up to probe the former governor over the issue. Director of the group, Alhaji Is-haq Akintola, who spoke in Lagos, Nigeria, yesterday, told newsmen that Yerima’s marriage was conducted in total conformity with the teachings of Islam.
“The current stand of these groups is regarded by Nigerian muslims not as an attack on Yerima per se but as a vicious campaign against Islam and Nigerian Muslims. “We reject the Child Rights Act as it breaches the teachings of Islam and deprives Muslims of their Allah-given and fundamental rights. We demand the dissolution of the panels set up by both the Senate and the House of Representatives to probe Yerima’s marriage as this constitutes an attempt to probe the scripture of Islam,” he stated.***

It is a crying shame, that the man is still a senate since this bad news broke out, shameful that educated wives of governors,(Northern) ladies, came out collectively to defend such a pathetic man, shameful that muslims all over are condoning that action of yerima, condoning all the fatal and awful implications of yerima's actions, shameful that senators barely raised a cry regardless of an outcry, shameful that a man is singularly shoving this country down into savagery. What a crying shame!
ReplyDeleteNa wa.. Obviously, they are idle. They now want to turn this in to one silly religious wahala.

All I have to say is WOW at this statement: "We reject the Child Rights Act as it breaches the teachings of Islam and deprives Muslims of their Allah-given and fundamental rights." Terrible. God save the children of Nigeria and the world.
ReplyDeleteif this man has any shame at all, he ought to resign. If future, northerners must be forced to know that it is not one law for them and one law for another- we are all nigerians and have to obey one law- child marriage is thereby abolished (penalty of 250,000 naira plus 10 years in prison with hard labour for the perpetrators); all girls MUST go to school (or 250,000 naira plus 12 years hard labour for each offence)
ReplyDeletena wah ohh....dis people are crazy ohh and will look for any reason to start killing non muslims...Pls they should disbarn the commitee let their be peace. As long as its their own chilren they are screwing in the name of marriage i dont really give a rats ass.
