IDOMA VOICE reports that Mubarak Bala is a famous Nigerian atheist.
An atheist is a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.
Mubarak Bala is one of those who does not believe in the existence of God of gods.
The young man became famous many years ago with anti-
God posts on social media.
In 2020, he got more than what he bargained for over his controversial tweet.
On April 27 2020, Bala compared popular Lagos pastor and president of Synagogue Church of Nations Prophet TB Joshua to Prophet Mohammed.
“There’s no difference between prophet TB Joshua (S.A.W) of Lagos and Muhammadu (A.S.) of Saudi Arabia, it is better for our Nigeria to be terrorism,” Bala said wrote on his Facebook page.
In another post, Bala said, “Whoever believes religion has been duped – If you cant take blasphemy against Islam, criticizism of its doctrines, this page is not for you. I have not even started ooo.”
“Religion insults human reason and conscience, duped me that I have another lifetime,” Mubarak said in his Facebook bio.
IDOMA VOICE recalls that Bala was arrested in 2020 in Kaduna state, and transferred to Kano, his home state.
He has been in detention since then.
The 37-year-old president of the Humanist Association of Nigeria pleaded guilty to all 18 charges and asked for leniency.
While pleading with the court on Tuesday to tender justice with mercy, Bala promised not to repeat the said blasphemous post, saying he did not know it would elicit the sort of reactions it got when he shared them.
The judge, Justice Farouk Lawan, and the convict’s lawyer, James Ibori, had tried to convince him against his guilty plea but the convict insisted he knew what he was doing and maintained his plea.
He has been sentenced to sentenced to 24 years in prison for blasphemy against Islam.
