How El-Rufai's convoy killed five of our members - Shi'ites

 

Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, has been accused by the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, of causing the death of five members of the group.

According to The PUNCH, the religious group stated that the security details of the governor allegedly opened fire on them during a protest in Kaduna on Thursday.

This is contained in a statement signed by the Secretary of the Academic Forum of the movement, Abdullahi Musa.

The statement read, “Few days ago, the Kaduna State Governor, Nasiru El-Rufai, incited members of his political Party in Zaria, against the the Islamic movement in Nigeria and its leader, Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky(H), where he told them that they must vote his anointed candidate, Senator Uba Sani, so he may finish off what he described as the remnants of El-zakzaky’s Shiites in Zaria.

“The governor told the APC faithful that it’s only his successor that can fight and finish the Shiites in the state. Incidentally, less than 48 hours to the state’s governorship election, followers of the oppressed leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria came out to protest against tyrant Buhari’s refusal to remove the illegal travelling ban on their leader, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky and his wife to travel out for medical treatment, El-Rufai’s convoy ran into the protesters and opened fire with live ammunition on them, killing more than five on the spot.

“These include Aliyu Suleiman, an 18-year-old Mechanical Engineering student of Kaduna State Polytechnic. Several others sustained various degrees of life-threatening injuries. An unspecified number of passers-by were also shot and arrested.”
