From the Daily Post Nigeria and the Sahara Reporters
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has made an adjustment to Sunday’s protest over the murder of Deborah Samuel.
The President, Rev. Samson Ayokunle issued a circular to churches on Saturday. The religious leader informed them of the plans by Muslims to counter the demonstration.
Ayokunle noted that their intention “is to cause chaos and attribute it to us”. “In view of the foregoing, I urge you all to do the protest of placard-carrying within the premises of your churches or local CAN Secretariat”, he said.
CAN said, “You are all aware that some Muslims had sent out information that they were going to counter our peaceful protest on Sunday, May 22. Their intention is to cause chaos and attribute it to us.
“In view of the foregoing, I urge you all to do the protest of placards-carrying within the premises of your local churches or your CAN Secretariat. However, where it is unsafe to do the protest in the premises of your church or CAN Secretariat, you may carry the placards inside your church and pray for justice for Deborah Samuel who was wickedly and extra judicially slain.
“Pray as well for a change of heart for the wicked who find it convenient for them to kill their fellow human beings under religious guise. In all, let the television cover your in-house protest and equally use the social media for the entire world to see.
“May the Lord be with us all, His Church in Nigeria and our nation who is in birth pains.”

Koran 9:29 tells Muslims to fight the monotheistic non-believers until they are subjugated (pay the jizya tax) and feel themselves subdued.
How can Muhammad be “insulted”? What other religion feels a need to go to war to defend its’ founders reputation? Perhaps a religion that isn’t very confident in itself? A religion that must oppress others as a result?
If, as Mohammedans view it, Muhammad is enjoying his many dark-eyed virgins and boys in Islamic paradise, what’s it to him if people on earth don’t appreciate him properly? If lack of respect for the “prophet” disturbs Allah, Allah will defend Muhammad.
The true and living God says “Vengeance is mine, I will repay.” Just be patient, Muslims. If Islam is correct, your fears will be vindicated. In the meantime, how about a bit of humility and willingness to get along with fellow human beings?
