BOMBSHELL!!! EXCLUSIVE UPDATE ON THE IGBO WOMAN KILLED IN KANO OVER
BLASPHEMY REVEALED, SEE WHAT KANO STATE GOVERNOR DID
An Igbo trader identified as Bridget Paience of Agbahime from Orodo
town, Mbaitoli LGA in Imo State married to Mr Mike Agbahime -a senior
pastor of Deeper Life Bible Church, Brigade Quarters in Kano state was
today beaten to death in Kano State in the name of blasphemy.
Speaking to National Helm, Pastor Ken who is also in Kano gave them a
detailed narration of how the woman was beaten to death right infront
of her husband.
In his words;
Mrs Bridget who sold plastic materials at the popular Kofar Wambai
market had wanted to close her shop on Thursday June 2, 2016 by 4.30pm
to go for a church programme. Her neighbour simply identified as Dauda
who is a Muslim came in front of her shop to wash his hands and feet
in preparation for his own prayers.
Mummy as fondly called by her church members told him to leave the
front of her shop that she wants to lock the door. The man refused and
told her to wait till he finishes with what he's doing. (N.B; Mrs
Bridget had been having serious problems with Dauda to the extent that
their matter has been reported to the market's association
numerously).
So she persisted that he should leave her shop, instead of complying
the man started raining abuses on her saying that he would deal with
her in the market. After people started gathering around due to the
insults and abuses, the man calmed down and left…
The woman thinking all had ended -went to meet her husband who also
has a shop in the same market but different location to report as
usual. Both her and her husband went to meet the landlord of her shop
one Alhaji Mustapha – a prominent trader in the market which has been
their advocate -to table the latest issue at hand.
While they were reporting the case to Mustapha in his shop, Dauda and
his reinforced gang gathered and started chanting that the woman must
die for blaspheming against prophet Mohammed. The Alhaji pleaded with
them to come back in a few days time promising to settle the matter
but they vehemently refused and started stoning him. The Alhaji ran
for his life leaving the Mr Mike and his wife in his shop…
The woman knowing that her end had come -knelt down and started
praying before she was beaten and clubbed to death by the mob right in
front of her husband. SHE WAS NEVER BEHEADED (this has been
confirmed).
Meanwhile, Dauda and his cohorts have been arrested and are currently
in Kano State police station.. While Mr Mike has left his base located
at Warri road and is currently at an undisclosed hotel in the
metropilis over fear of his life.
The governor has been engaging stakeholders since morning over the
death of Mrs Bridget Patience who was killed on Thursday by mob
action. He also met with Christian Council of Nigeria, Women wing, led
by their President, Hon O.C. Williams. See the photos after the cut.
Meanwhile one person arrested so far. He is the main suspect in the
beheading investigation which is still ongoing.
According to a statement released by Governor Umar Ganduje's director
general of media and communications, @Dawisu:
The governor is indeed disturbed by this incident and is personally
saddened by this unfortunate mob action that led to her death.
Since the incident was brought to the governor's attention, he has
been meeting with several stakeholders in order to get the full
details of it.
These series of engagements with stakeholders just concluded with a
meeting with Council of Ulamas, Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN)
Kano Chapter and leader of Igbos in Kano.

engaged with throughout the day, including reps of security agencies.
At the end of these series of engagements, all stakeholders came to a
mutual agreement and agreed on the following resolutions.

condolences to the husband of the deceased and her family.
All the stakeholders unanimously agreed that Mrs Bridget Patience was
