A student of the Federal University in Dutse Jigawa, Aminu Mohammed, who was recently remanded in prison for criticizing the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, on social media, supported the killing of Deborah Samuel, a student of Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto.
Aminu Mohammed Arrested For Criticizing Aisha Buhari
The first lady was alleged to have ordered Mohammed’s arrest over a Twitter post where he claimed that she was feeding fat on poor people’s money.
Mohammed posted Aisha’s picture on Twitter with the caption “Su mama anchi kudin talakawa an koshi” (translated from Hausa, meaning “Mummy has gotten fatter by eating masses’ money”).
Months after, security operatives arrested him for the tweet which he posted in June and whisked him to the Presidential Villa in Abuja, where he was beaten and tortured, according to his uncle.
The student was subsequently arraigned at a court in Abuja on Tuesday, November 29, where he was denied bail despite pleading not guilty to the charges filed against him.
Due to this, many Nigerians primarily in the Southern part of the country, have been criticizing Aisha Buhari for detaining the 23-year-old student, while calling for his immediate release.
Amid the calls, it was discovered that Mohammed supported the killing of Deborah Samuel, a 21-year-old Christian college student in Sokoto who was killed by her Muslim colleagues after being accused of blasphemy.
KanyiDaily recalls that on May 22, Deborah was beaten and burnt to death by her Muslim colleagues over alleged blasphemous remarks considered to be an insult to Prophet Mohammed.
Deborah’s death had sparked outrage and condemnation across the country, with some Nigerians accusing security agents of abandoning the Christian student to be attacked and killed by the Muslim mob.
In an old tweet at that time, Mohammed shared a photo of a T-shirt with Deborah’s image, threatening that anyone who wears it will be severely dealt with in Bauchi state.
He tweeted “Duk Wanda yasa wannan rigar ah Bauchi sai munchi uwarsa” and it is translated as “whosoever wears this shirt in bauchi will be dealt with….. SEVERELY!!!”

The development has forced many Nigerians on Twitter, who initially called for Mohammed’s release, to dissociate themselves from him, with many saying he deserves the treatment being meted out to him for criticizing Aisha Buhari.
Aminu rejoiced over Deborah’s death. What kind of indoctrination is that? Why inherit the hate of your forefathers? Until Nigeria happens to u, u won’t realize how crazy that jungle is. I hope he learn from this? Karma, Religion & Tribalism are weapons fashioned against u, only.

Aminu is misguided. Rejoicing over Deborah’s death shows he inherited a generational hate. Whether he changes for the better is entirely his akara & bread. That said, what is bad is bad. Two wrongs don’t make it alright. Aisha Buhari was wrong. She abused her privileged position.

Sometimes, as a Christian and how d Bible taught us. We shouldn't repay evil for evil. And that's y we christians are different. We love and we tolerate unlike the other religion. Let's forgive Aminu Mohammed. He is young & naive 🙏https://t.co/xziYXp4o8g

This is scary. And you have thousands who reason like Aminu. Hate taken too far, & for what? Tribe? Religion? God can fight his battles. He doesn’t need your earthly help. He is all too powerful for the help of mortal men who are fallible. How did Nigeria come to such a passé? 💔 https://t.co/T4dfWugdyz

KanyiDaily recalls that the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) had apologized to Aisha Buhari over the embarrassment Aminu Mohammed’s action had caused her and called for his immediate release.
