US-based Church of Satan has
attacked President Muhammadu Buhari for describing the recent killing by Fulani
herdsmen as Satanic.
Recall that Rev
Fathers Gor Joseph, Felix and other worshippers were on Tuesday murdered, after
suspected herdsmen attacked their village.
Reacting to the killings Buhari
said on twitter, “I extend my sincere condolences to the Govt and people of
Benue State, the Mbalom community, and especially the Bishop, priests and
members of the St Ignatius’ Catholic Church, whose premises was the unfortunate
venue of the heinous killings of worshippers and two priests by gunmen.
“This latest assault on innocent
persons is particularly despicable. Violating a place of worship, killing
priests and worshippers is not only vile, evil and satanic, it is clearly
calculated to stoke up religious conflict and plunge our communities into
endless bloodletting.”
However, the Church of Satan,
which has its head quarters in US, described the Nigerian President as ignorant
for using the term “Satanic” in describing the killing.
They took to their verified
official twitter handle to lambast Buhari for allowing the killings due to his
incompetence.
They wrote, “President Buhari is
ignorant. Infighting between two different Abrahamic religions is just that,
theists killing theists.
“It has nothing to do with us or
Satanism – a life cherishing atheistic religion.”
