Why should "the boy" be pardoned? He violated Nigerian Federal Law. More important, he blasphemed against God. The Nigerian Government must make an example of him.
Unfortunately, paraphrasing Lincoln, the world will little note nor long remember what is happening in Nigeria. Its legal system is completely messed up.
Nigerian appeals court throws out blasphemy convictions that caused outcry
'KANO, Nigeria (Reuters) - A Nigerian court threw out two blasphemy convictions on Thursday that had caused an international outcry, freeing a teenager from a 10-year prison sentence and ordering a new trial for a man sentenced to death.
The two had been convicted in August by a sharia court in Nigeria's northern, mainly Muslim state of Kano. Teenager Omar Farouq was accused of making blasphemous comments during an argument, while Yahaya Aminu Sharif was accused of having shared a blasphemous message on WhatsApp.

IF you kill all that speak out loud another opinion, it indeed is the "Religion of Peace", though a macabre "Deadly Silence"
