A young man named Yunusa was killed by an angry mob in Nasaru village, Ningi local government area of Bauchi State, over allegations of blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad (SAW). The incident occurred on Wednesday.
According to reports, the blasphemous remarks were made during a heated argument with friends, which attracted the attention of bystanders.
A witness explained, “The victim, a member of the Faira Islamic Sect, was heard making insulting remarks about the Prophet. Some young men challenged Yunusa to retract his statement, but he refused and even repeated it. This led to them attacking him.”
Police personnel attempted to rescue Yunusa but were overwhelmed by the mob, which used stones, sticks, and other objects to fatally assault him. Further reports indicate that the mob tried to set fire to the local police station when officers sought to protect him there.
As of the time of this report, the police have not yet issued a statement regarding the incident.
