As incoming President of @Humanists_UK, Mubarak Bala is a brother, and this is a day of shame for the Nigerian authorities. They have imposed an unthinkable punishment on an innocent man.

Humanists are people who shape their own lives in the here and now, because we believe it's the only life we have. Here's our patron, Ricky Gervais, on the humanist approach to life in a segment of his series (ironically enough) called After Life.

Our colleague Mubarak Bala was arrested 475 days ago, accused of 'blasphemy'. He is still detained in Kano, Nigeria. This is just a mere snapshot of how Islamic police operate throughout Kano, & the influence Islamic law has on daily life. bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-…

We lost a friend and the world a humanist hero.
Humanists International is greatly saddened to hear that veteran humanist and LGBTI activist George Broadhead has recently passed away. George was a humanist until the very end.
