*"Shaikh Labeeb Declares War on Ritual Killers in Ilorin"*
The recent brutal killing of innocent Hafsoh by an acclaimed scholar in Ilorin has sparked widespread outrage. Prominent Islamic scholar, Shaikh Labeeb, has strongly condemned the act, vowing to be at the forefront of the fight against ritual killings and the trade in human parts.
During a public sermon, Shaikh Labeeb held up a document and declared:
"This is the law passed by the Kwara State House of Assembly under the leadership of Prof. Ali Ahmad as Speaker. It was born out of our deep concern over the alarming cases of human parts trading disguised as religious practices. We, the Ulamas, took our complaints to the House after sleepless nights, seeking legal measures to curb this evil. These perpetrators are not scholars; they are ritualists in disguise!"
He recounted how the Assembly, under Prof. Ali Ahmad, swiftly enacted a law that criminalizes human killings and the trade in human parts. The bill was immediately signed into law by Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed Maigida, making it a binding legal instrument against such heinous crimes.
Shaikh Labeeb then revealed the law's provisions:
"Whoever is caught in the act of human killing or the trade of human parts faces 15 years imprisonment and a ₦100,000 fine, with no option of fine or pardon. This law does not spare accomplices or those whose premises are used for such crimes."
Raising the document again, he declared:
"This law empowers every individual to report and expose any hint of human killings and ritualistic activities in Kwara State. We will not stand by and allow criminals masquerading as scholars to tarnish the name of true Islamic teachings!"
Shaikh Labeeb did not stop at condemnation—he vowed to be an active part of the crusade against these evil acts.
"From today, I commit myself to this fight. I will not rest until this menace is completely eradicated from our land. No scholar should remain silent while criminals continue to operate in our midst!"
He prayed extensively for Prof. Ali Ahmad and Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed Maigida for their decisive action in ensuring this law became a reality. He also called on government authorities, security agencies, religious leaders, and all well-meaning individuals to join him in this fight to cleanse the society of ritual killers.
"Ritual killers are not men of God. They are criminals who must face the full wrath of the law! We will expose them, we will fight them, and we will defeat them!"
This is a clarion call: No one should stay silent. Stand up, speak out, and help bring an end to this evil.
Enough is enough.
