Munkaila Ahmadu has confessed to killing his parents in the Gagarawa Local Government Area of Jigawa State, noting that he committed the act because of their blasphemous comments against Prophet Muhammad.

According to Ahmadu, a singer and, a member of the Tijjaniyya Islamic sect, his parents mocked and called him a mad person and opposed him being a praise singer for the prophet.

Recall that police had on Thursday, arrested Mr. Ahmadu, 37 after he killed his parents and injured two others.

He used a pestle to kill his father, Ahmad Muhammad, 70, who is the village head of the Zarada community in the Gagarawa council area, and his mother Ahmad Hauwa’u, 60.

Ahmadu, in a recorded video in police custody, said he has no regret for what he did because he was commanded to do so.

“I killed them because they refuse to accept the truth concerning the prophet Muhammad (S.W.A). I killed them because they abused the prophet and their punishment is death, there is no repentance for any person who abused the Prophet.

“I am a praise singer for the prophet, this year I intend to do a video for my song and God willing, I will do that, I will be free because God is with the righteous person, that is why I am not worrying over my action,” Mr. Ahmadu said in a video recorded by the police.

“My parent doesn’t (don’t) like the prophet Muhammad because I adore him, they called me a mad person, I pleaded with my father to support my work (praise singing), and I told him that I don’t womanize, I am not a gambler, I don’t do drugs, and I don’t steal, but he refused to.

“My mother used to go to neighboring towns to blackmail me, telling people to reject me whenever I came to sing praises to the prophet because I am mad and I refused to work on the farm.

“I am now in police custody because, by human thinking, I did a wrong thing but in the sight of God and the Prophet what I did is the right thing,” Mr. Ahmadu said.

Mr. Ahmadu, a father of five children, said he suspected his father of having an affair with his wife.
