Help Stop a Woman From Being Stoned to Death
In Nigeria a court will decide if a woman accused of adultery will be stoned to death, despite the fact that she claims to have been raped. Her attacker, of course, faces no punishment. Please contact Nigerian officials to help prevent her death.

Maybe it's just the shitty day that I've been having, but I have to point out that the Nigerian goverment won't do anything to help this woman. This happened recently, where a girl was raped by two men, who admitted they had raped her. She was stoned, they were barely chastised -- despite an international outcry.
Sorry, I'm way cranky today. People should contact the goverment; you can't make a difference if you don't even try.

They want to murder these women based on this ancient Islam that calls also for the murder of Christians. If Nigeria persists in this we should also boycot all travel /Tourism to that country/Yes, I'm African American. Again we must stop this atrasity!

I feel this is terrible and unfair treatment of women in your country. Please reconsider her judgment. Let us all pray to be better people that help one another. Jane Murphy

I hope this woman is spirited out of the country and saved with her baby. These judges that condemn her, let me investigate their life and see what we can find to condemn them to death. FREE THIS WOMAN !!!!!!!!
