The incident of a Christian student at the shehu shagari university of education sokoto that was stoned to death for blasphemy against the prophet Mohammed, makes me want to tell a short story about Gen Sani Abacha.

In 1995, a group of 9 Wahabist fundamentalists in Kano killed and beheaded a young Igbo Trader, Gideon Akaluka. They lied that he desecrated the Holy Qur’an.

Abacha assassinated all of them, except One. Abacha didn’t play games with political uprisings and religious extremism, He wanted the last of the 9 dead. Even with appeals and entreaties by the Northern Aristocracy that he would disappear and cause no trouble if pardoned, but Abacha insisted on punishment so he was caught.

It’s interesting to note that the person who led the group that begged for his life was Alhaji Umar Mutallab the Father of the infamous Underwear Bomber, Farouk Mutallab, his 16th Child. Mutallab was also a heavy sponsor of Islamic Activities in the 80s and 90’s. No surprise here.

Alhaji Mutallab was named one of Africa’s wealthiest men in 2009 by Times magazine. For more context, Having attended Barewa College, He is a part of the “Barewa Boys” And the “Kaduna Mafia” they are part of the Owners of Nigeria.

Back to Gideon’s death.

As for those who think the murder of Deborah was due to illiteracy and lack of exposure, hmm…Gideon Akaluka was beheaded by a mob led by a Chartered Banker at the time, who had Royal Roots and was very well educated.

The problem is Religion

How do we fix extremism in Nigeria?

For those asking what happened to “The One” who was caught, Abacha spared him and sent him to Prison in Kano and later Sokoto. After Abacha died he was released and shipped to Khartoum, Sudan where he wanted to continue his wahala.

But word got to Uncle Umar Abdul Mutallab who then persuaded him to remember his royal roots and family name. And that if he was that passionate about Islam, he can enrol in university and study it. All just to keep him grounded and busy with what he was really interested in.

C’est fini.

This story is popular. And well known.

The death of Deborah is just one of many that’s happened since Wahhabism entered this country through the boogeyman.

David Hundeyin already told you about the Cornflakes for Jihad.

Nigeria insanity did not start today!

This is for you. You should try and know the 9th man that was saved.

I need you to learn in all the trend how Abacha a fellow Muslim but a strong leader speak loud in condemning their act of killing in the name of religion.

Guess the 9th man that was saved!!

Former CBN Governor.

RIPDeborah

The full story and the man that was saved.

WHY ABACHA DIDN’T KILL CBN GOV, SANUSI IN 1995…HIS ROLE IN AKALUKA’S Murder.

written by Our Reporter
August 5, 2012

Fresh facts have emerged as to why the government of late Sani Abacha did not kill Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), governor, Lamido Sanusi, in 1995, after he and eight other jihadists mobilized crazed extremists to behead Gideon Akaluka in jail

Akaluka, a young igbo trader, allegedly desecrated the Koran. He was arrested after his wife allegedly used pages of the Koran as toilet paper for her baby. After he was locked up by the police, a group of Muslim fundamentalists break into the jail, beheaded Akaluka, and paraded his bodiless head around the streets of Kano.

Pointblanknews.com investigation has revealed the role Sanusi, an alleged Boko Haram sympathizer, and proponent of the controversial Islamic Bank, played in the murder of Akaluka, and why the Abacha regime decided to lock him up for two years for the murder of Akaluka.

Sources hinted that shortly after returning from Khartoum, Sudan where he earned a degree in Sharia and Islamic studies, at the International University of Africa, Sanusi became a recluse and immersed himself in the Koran and became a teacher of the Hadith as espoused by the Wahabbists.

Wahhabism is an ultra-conservative branch of Sunni Islam. It is a religious movement among fundamentalist (with an aspiration to return to the primordial fundamental Islamic sources Qur`an, Hadeeth and Scholarly consensus (Ijma)) Islamic believers. Wahhabism was a popular revivalist movement instigated by an eighteenth century theologian, Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1703–1792) from Najd, Saudi Arabia.

Sanusi, who is alleged to detests the President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, because according to him, it is anti-islam, was part of a nine man clique of extremists who had a huge following.

A source said, “ when Sanusi returned from Sudan where he associated with very extreme personalities, he was not a happy man. he was treated like an outcast in royal circles because his grandfather, was deposed as Emir of Kano. So his anger grew. “

During that period, the incident of desecration of the Koran by the Akalukas surfaced. According to our source, during that period the Abacha government was not comfortable with the activities of the extremists in Kano, who they view with suspicion.

The regime, it was gathered, silently assassinated a lot of them. Said our source “ When Akaluka was locked up, Sanusi and eight others mobilized some extremist mob who stormed the prison and killed Akaluka. The regime identified the masterminds, so mandated its hit squad to eliminate the nine, including Sanusi .”

Pointblanknews.com gathered that eight of the masterminds were assassinated by Abacha, but for the intervention of former First Bank chairman, and father of Christmas Day bomber, Alhaji Umar Mutallab and others.

“ It was Muttallab and the rest who were heavy sponsors of Islamic activities who prevailed on Abacha to spare Sanusi. They are argued that since he has gone through a lot, treated like a pariah in the royal circles because his grandfather was deposed, he should be spared. So They decided to remove him from Kano to Sokoto where he was locked up for two years.” Said the source

It was further learnt that after his release from prison, Sanusi was handed over to Mutallab who pushed him into banking because he(Sanusi) had a degree in Economics from Ahmadu Bello University (ABU). From there he moved to the United Bank for Africa, and the First bank, from where he rose quietly until late President Umar Yar’Adua recruited him to head CBN and spearhead the introduction of the Islamic Bank.

The crime took place in 1995, and investigations and identification of the culprit followed. Lamido was later jailed for two years, say from 1996 to 1998. He was later handed over to Muttallab who fixed him up at the bank say 1998 or 1999. Sanusi became the governor of CBN in 2008 just ten years after he joined the First bank. Before he was appointed governor, he had already become the GM of First bank. This means that in less than ten years after he joined First bank with a degree in economics not banking he rose to become the banks GM and went on to become governor of CBN. This type of rise is only common with Northerners, you cant rise that fast as a Southerner. In 1975, Adamu Ciroma was appointed governor of CBN by Gen. Mohammed, with no banking, accounting of finance experience.
