VIDEO: Remains Of Murdered Deborah Yakubu Buried In Niger

Remains of murdered Deborah Yakubu have been buried in Niger.

Glamtush reports that the remains of Deborah Yakubu, a 200-level Home Economics student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, who was burnt to death last Thursday over alleged blasphemy, have been laid to rest.

This online platform understands that she was buried in her hometown, Tunga Magajiya, in Rijau local government area of Niger State on Saturday.

Tears flowed freely as she was being buried as well-wishers and relations lamented how she was killed.

She was buried around 6:30pm at the Christian cemetery in Tunga Magaiya.

Her family remained adamant about proceeding with the exercise despite protests by youths of Tunga Magaiya who felt the Sokoto Government should have been responsible for her burial.

Her uncle, who is the Pastor of ECWA in Tunga Magajiya, Emmanuel Maaji, led the prayers at the cemetery before she was lowered to mother earth.
