We are not satisfied with the sentence given to Sheikh Abduljabar, said his disciples
Dan Bala.
The students of Sheikh Abduljabbar said that there are things they are not satisfied with the decision of the court. This comes after the judgment of the Islamic High Court Judge Ibrahim Sarki Yola against the teacher this morning. Just as his studies and the case are full of controversies, so is the death sentence that was given to him by hanging.
While some people think that the decision is in line with the charges against Sheikh Abduljabar, others, especially his students and some Muslim sections, say that the evidence presented by the teacher in front of the court was not taken into account when deciding the decision.
However, his students told Jarida Radio that this is the sentence they were hoping for because according to them the trial was full of injustice. Today's ruling is almost the biggest story that has hit not only Kano state, but also the northern parts of Nigeria.
Most judgments like this are a big challenge especially for the authorities to execute it. The Islamic High Court said that the teacher has thirty days to appeal.
And I have seen Sheikh Abduljabbar, even though he is being sentenced, he denies committing this crime. But the issue of submitting to the ruling will now be watched to see if he will use this opportunity or otherwise.
