An Islamic cleric has made a controversial statement asserting that Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, deserves to be killed due to her role as a pastor.
In a viral video, the cleric is heard expressing the view that the Muslim/Muslim ticket that facilitated President Bola Tinubu‘s ascent to power was deceitful.
He claimed that Tinubu’s wife “being an infidel should be put to death as provided for in the Quran”. He, however, did not provide any chapter or verse of the Quran to support his claim.
Speaking in Hausa language, the cleric said “Now, Tinubu, his wife is an infidel. As an infidel, she is a leader among the infidels.
“God’s judgement says she must be killed. She’s a pastor… a leader of infidels (Christians); Allah says they must be killed….’
