The corpse Deborah Samuel, the student of Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, who was burnt to death on Thursday for alleged blasphemy, has arrived Tunga Magajiya in Rijau local government area of Niger State.

The Nation gathered that Deborah’s mother has been unconscious since she heard of her death while the father has been inconsolable.

The family is in a meeting to determine how the burial will take place.

The Nation learnt that when the body was on its way to Niger State, the Sokoto State Government called it should be returned as body has become government property.

Speaking to The Nation, Pastor of the family, who is in charge of 1st ECWA in Tunga Magajiya, Pastor Emmanuel Maaji, confirmed the family wants her buried on Saturday.
