25 Year Old Ghanaian Man Reportedly Joins ISIS
A 25-year-old Ghanaian man named Nazir Nortei Alema is believed to have joined terrorist group, ISIS.
According to Sahara Reporters, Nazir is a a graduate of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), and holds a degree in Geography and Rural Development. Also, the publication states that he is feared to be one of 10 suspected Muslim youths from Ghana who have joined the terrorist group.
Alema’s family reportedly stated that on August 2nd, soon after completing the mandatory National Service in Ghana, he sent a WhatsApp message to his family stating that he was traveling to another part of Ghana on a job-related assignment.
However, Alema subsequently sent another message stating that he had lied about his whereabouts.
His father, Kabiru Alema is said to have disclosed the contents of the purported message:
“Pray for me, for I will never forget you in my prayer and it’s my hope and prayer that we meet again if not in this world then in Jannah (paradise). I love you all. May Allah grant us understanding and guide us all to the straight path. Asalaamu alaikum.
I told you a lie to please my Allah. The deception was to go do some research work in far away Prestea while the main idea was to move far away from you all to the Islamic State (IS). I know it might sound kind of crazy for you but your son really had to take this bold step to get out of the corrupt system of Ghana which has democracy first on its list.”

I rather feel bad for his parent after raising a child with good family values and investing in his education, the reward he brings to you and the nation is to join a terrorist group in a name of religion. We will keep him in our prayers

Egya Ntafuor ni gyimi3r eni nkwasiasem di3r. I mean look at the president mahama himself
So full of shyt., Useless species. I guess these Ishmaelite descendants are a cursed group of people. Abraham is all your fault, you are hard headed, when God told you to have patient and wait you didnt wait you had to rush to go bone the useless maid who bore ishmael and now the world has never known peace since. They are a thorn in the flesh to the rest of the world.
What exactly do these muther fckers want that is my question. WHAT DO THEY WANT IN LIFE , that they wont let anybody have piece

This is a hate message and it is very inappropriate. The fact that some decide to follow their evil desires of killings should not get us this low as to castigate a large number of people- many of whom are even more decent and responsible than we are- primarily for their religious beliefs. You can be better than this, you should be better than this.

we are all in shock! I sat in the same classroom with this kid in secondary school. Really bright guy and the last person I would imagine do this. May the almighty Allah bring him back to his family. Also people who associate this madness with all Muslims are just ignorant.

Haba, why drag Abraham into this? Read your bible well o. Abraham did it because his wife pleaded with him to do so. Back then, it was the custom of a childless wife to beg her husband to impregnate her maid servant. The child of the maid is viewed as that of the wife. Rachel, Jacob’s wife did the same thing.
By the way, not all Muslims condone violence. Some are deeply pained by what they see/hear their fellow brethren do.
