Deborah Samuel was a 25 year old female college student attending Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto State, North West Nigeria. Deborah was a Christian who got into a back and forth with fellow Muslim students who were all in a What's App Group designated for academic studies. On Thursday, May 12, 2022, there was a brief conversation about religion being talked about in the group created for test studies. Deborah made a remark to the Muslim students about it and they were offended. They accused Deborah of Blasphemy against their Prophet Muhammad. Those offended student went out and informed outsiders of the exchange between them and returned with a mob of men who came to drag her out of her hostel and commenced to beating her and hitting her with bricks until she died. Afterwards, the men threw heavy truck tires on top of her body and set her ablaze. It was told by a classmate, the last words Deborah spoke was, "What are you going to achieve in doing this? Nothing was achieved from this horrible inhumane act done in the name of religion. This podcast is dedicated to her life that was cut so short and untimely.
