Even as prominent and respected Muslims try to douse the serious situation, those who started the fire are still trying to sell snake oil. As calm was returning to the country, Deputy Governor Mamuda Aliyu Shinkafi of Zamfara State, where the Sharia penal code reared its head in 1999, issued a ‘fatwa’ (religious decree) saying: “It is binding on all Muslims wherever they are, to consider the killing of the writer as a religious duty. …. Just like the blasphemous Indian writer Salman Rushdie, the blood of Isioma Daniel can be shed.”
Provost Myra Gordon and Kansas State University President Jon Wefald have such lovely friends. Apparently murder, death threats, stoning women to death, and flogging unwed mothers is alright with the leaders of K-State; just so long as the atrocities are committed in a diverse manner. Isioma Daniel was a Nigerian journalist who has since had to move to Norway in order to escape Shinkafi's death fatwa.
I am thinking about showing up to the service honoring this villain that will take place at K-State on Monday at 4:00 PM. I just don't want to be stoned for asking non-diverse questions. There is no information on whether Isioma Daniel will be attending the ceremony honoring his would-be killer.

Silly me. I thought Nigeria's major industry was bilking gullible and elderly Americans out of their life's savings with phone, mail and email scams.
Please tell me the K-state student body isn't so asleep at the switch that no one there has mounted a protest to this Islamoshit's visit.
It's finals week, nobody cares. This includes Pres. Wefald who is too busy giving this Islamist thug a tongue-bath to respond to my email.
