Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General of Kano State, Lawan Musa, has reportedly said the state governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, is ready to sign the death warrant of the convicted Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abduljabbar Nasiru Kabara.
Kabara was convicted of blaspheming Prophet Muhammed by a Kano Sharia Court.
On the heels of his conviction, Musa told Daily Trust, “Nobody will be allowed to break the law without the necessary actions being taken.
“We took him (Abduljabbar) to court and gave him all the necessary things to defend himself and today, we thank God, the court has seen that we do have a case against him and has convicted him accordingly,” he said.
Musa added: “Just as it (position of the governor) has not changed in the case of Hanifa, it has equally not changed on this.
“You know there are a lot of procedures to follow and His Excellency is ever ready; once that warrant is brought before him, he is going to sign it,” he added.
