A Hate Theologian at Work

Sunday,  1 November 2020 | Rabi Al-Awwal 15, 1442 AH

This is one of the hate theologians feeding people’s fears, based on fake news, unsupported assertions and divisive messages from the pulpit. His aim is to set thugs on the Muslim minority communities in the SE and SS states, and his message is getting through to his crowd.

A few days after this rousing speech, two mosques were burned down in Nsukka, Enugu State, after a fight (over transport fare) between an Ibo tricycle rider and a Hausa man.

The main purpose of a speech like this is clearly to promote hate and to incite.
