    Deborah Samuel: Sokoto Governor Ordered To Resign Over ‘Watery’ Charges Against Suspected Killers

    Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, SAN, has asked Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, to resign from office instead of supporting the “watery” charges instituted against suspected killers of Deborah Samuel Yakubu a student of Shehu Shagari College of Education.

    Adegboruwa alleged in a Facebook post on Monday that “the charge of Criminal Conspiracy and Inciting Public Disturbance as framed by the Sokoto State Government against hardened murderers is an insult to the sensibilities of the parents of the deceased, the people of Nigeria and God who created Deborah.”

    Recall that police authorities in the state had said that Yakubu was killed by a mob over alleged blasphemy.

    NAN reported on Monday, that the police arraigned two suspects before Sokoto Chief Magistrate Court for their “alleged participation in the crime.”

    Adegboruwa said that the political ambition of Governor Aminu Tambuwal should not override the life of a citizen entrusted to his care but who was murdered in cold blood.

    His statement on Facebook partly reads:

    “It is better for His Excellency to resign now, rather than go down in history as the Governor under whose watch a citizen was murdered and the Governor could not enforce the laws of the land but rather aided and abetted its cover up.

    “It is most uncharitable of His Excellency to have condoned this baseless charge.

    ” It is better to set the suspects free rather than claim to try them.

    “The aftermath of this gruesome murder, the watery charges filed and the consenting attitude of those concerned have depressed me more than the act itself.

    “Nigeria cannot work this way at all. I’m truly saddened by this development.

    The senior lawyer further accused the Sokoto state government of playing up conspiracy in the trial of suspects allegedly involved in her gruesome murder.

    Adegboruwa stated that the charges amounts to “conspiracy in Sokoto” and there was need for genuine reconciliation in the matter.

    “This crime took place in an enlightened environment in a higher institution, under the watch of security men, who were said to have been overpowered.

    “It all started from a WhatsApp group, which has identified leaders. There are students who sent messages and threats of death on that platform. Their phone numbers are registered with NIN identification. They belong to a class in the school so they are known individuals.

    “Images of persons who openly and boastfully confessed of partaking in the murder abound, with one displaying the match stick with which the deceased was set ablaze.

    “The government of Sokoto State has by these charges shown itself complicit in this whole drama and it is most unfortunate, for a State that is headed by a lawyer, a former Speaker of the House of Representatives and who is aspiring to rule Nigeria as its President,” he stated on his Facebook page.

    “I expected Governor as Visitor to that school to have visited the parents of the deceased, who trusted the authorities and sent their ward to school from Niger to Sokoto State, in furtherance of the mantra of a United Nigeria.

    “If the impression we get with all these charges is that the State itself endorsed the murder of the deceased, then we are sowing the seeds of discord and fragmentation.

    “It is Governor Tambuwal who is actually on trial in this case, ” he added.
