The
injustices of the directionless regime of Buhari continue to wreak havoc on the
lives of the populace to such an extent that large sections of the country are
practically lawless wastelands under the sway of bandits and marauders.
However, we wish to update the public on the continued unlawful incarceration
of Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky and his wife, both of whom are being detained by the
governor of Kaduna State on trumped-up charges, in the overcrowded Kaduna
prison, with Buhari's mandate.
It
is worth noting that Buhari is the architect of the massacre in Zaria as well
as serial and often savage persecution of all those who oppose the regimes
crackdown on Sheikh Zakzaky's supporters. Peaceful protesters have been killed
in large numbers in broad day light, places of worship, schools, homes and
other properties have been demolished without cause. There is virtually no
civil right that the regime has not violated. In the lead-up to the massacre,
the Nigerian Television Authority [NTA] spared no effort on justification
propaganda to sweep the Buhari regimes crimes under the carpet with ease, and
the Nigerian Army went on a killing and wrecking spree in which no less than a
thousand people were murdered in cold blood.
Sheikh
Zakzaky's elder sister and dozens of other women and children were flung into a
room, locked from behind, doused in fuel and then set ablaze. These brutalities
were initially wrought under the pretext of road blockade, and that of
assassination attempt. But, in his maiden media chat, Buhari falsified the
aforementioned pretexts and sought to justify the carnage with his far more
laughable conjecture of creating a state within a state.
Of
the survivors, about two hundred were illicitly imprisoned and falsely charged
with culpable homicide for one Corporal Dan Kaduna's death. Having expended
close to five years in prison, the case resulted in their acquittal, in spite
of unnecessary and deliberate delays in the legal proceedings, which
overwhelmingly established that he was killed in what was termed as friendly
fire.
