| Bala the Nigerian atheist in hospital. |
Remember Mubarak Bala,the Nigerian atheist who was sectioned to a mental hospital cos he didn't believe in God? (See Nigerian atheist locked up here) Well,he has been released from the psychiatric hospital he was held in.
The International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU), says that atheist Mubarak Bala was released because of a doctors’ strike which has seen many patients discharged.
The 29-year-old Nigerian atheist and chemical engineering graduate , was held against his will
for 18 days at the Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital.
Mubarak does not plan to take legal actions and thanked everyone who helped him get out. “To those who have made threats against me, I urge you to reason and learn to tolerate opinions other than yours,” he is quoted as saying in the statement.
The Nigerian atheist has shown more compassion than some so called religious people who would have been full of anger and revenge.
