Shehu Sani Demands Action Against Viral Threat to Christians

Shehu Sani, a former Kaduna Central Senator, has urged for the investigation and prosecution of a young man featured in a viral video allegedly threatening Christians in Enugu State. Sani stated that the inflammatory remarks made by the individual should not be attributed to Jama’atu Izalatil Bid’ah Wa Iqamatis Sunnah (JIBWIS), which he defended as a peaceful organization.

He condemned the video, which shows the man leading a group of boys chanting threats against churchgoers, and called for the individual to be held accountable. Sani described JIBWIS as a civil and non-violent group dedicated to humanitarian efforts and religious tolerance.

He asserted that the organization has never supported violence against any faith since its inception. Sani cautioned against judging an entire religious group based on the actions of one person, emphasizing that the views of one individual do not reflect the beliefs of the entire organization.
