Exclamation Nigerian woman sentenced to death

Good Afternoon,

This was sent to me and I thought I would pass it along:


As you have probably read in the newspapers recently, a Nigerian court has convicted Amina Awal to death because she had a child fathered by a man to whom she was not married. As soon as the child has been weaned, she will be buried up to her chest and stoned to death. Amnesty International has started a worldwide campaign to reverse this decision. If you click on the following link, or copy and paste into your browser, you can sign your name in opposition to and to repeal this sentence.
