Angry Muslim youths are said to have stormed a Bauchi community in search of a woman accused of blasphemy.

Muslim youths went in search of the woman after Friday's Juma'at prayers. They went on a rampage, destroying Christian property in the area, when they couldn't find her.
According to viral reports, the attack severely injured a number of Christians, including the pastor of an ECWA church.

This comes just a week after Deborah Samuel, a student at Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto, was lynched and set on fire by her classmates for alleged blasphemy.
Deborah, a 200-level Christian student at Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto, was beaten to death and burned on the school grounds on Thursday, May 12, for sending a 'blasphemous' voice message to her department's group chat.
Her ashes were interred in her hometown of Tungan Magajiya in the Rijau Local Government Area of Niger State.
