A footage have emerged of a Muslim Cleric, sheikh Yahaya Jingir, referring to Peter Obi and Igbo’s as Yamiri during a Jumat service at a mosque near PHCN office Wuse II
Nyamiri which is a derogatory
word to Igbo’s, originally means “Nyem mmiri” which means give me water.
A word Igbo people used to ask the Nigerian soldiers during the war
when Biafra was overrun and deprived of food and water.
This is
coming after Buba Galadima sent a very strong message to religious
leaders collecting money from Buhari to deceive their worshippers during
this election period.
According to a twitter user who shared the clip, he wrote;
Muslim Cleric telling his congregation not to vote for Atiku because his deputy is Yamiri, a derogatory word for Ibos.
This was during a Jumat service at a Mosque near PHCN office Wuse II.
Is this not hate speech? @segalink
Sheikh Yahaya Jingir, according to many, is known to ferment hate right from jos.
