Mubarak zakariyya✍️
The Public would recalled that on 28th July, 2021, Hon. Justice Gideon Kurada of the Federal High Court of Justice Kaduna discharged and acquitted the Leader of the Islamic movement Sheikh Ibraheem El-Zakzaky(H) and his wife Malama Zeenah. Meanwhile, Major General Muhammadu Buhari continue to victimise the Couple by Illegally Seizing their International Passports and unjustly imposed travelling ban on them, preventing them from having access to proper medication.
The Public are also aware that Sheikh Zakzaky(H) and his wife Malama Zeenah were the primary targets during the 2015 Buhari's Massacre in Zaria, they survived with dangerous injuries in their bodies, the Nigerian army invaded Sheikh Zakzaky's residence and killed 1000+ of his followers. They demolished his House and other infrastructure own by the Sheikh. They went further, by demolishing his mother's resident and grave, Hussainiyya Baqiyyatullah among others.
However, after the Sheikh and his Wife survived with life-threatening injuries and losing 3 of their Sons to the evil hands of the Nigerian Army personnel.
Despite a competent Court ordered for the total and unconditional release of the Sheikh and his Wife in December 2016, Buhari cruelly detained the oppressed couple for over 5years without proper medication. Now, the Kaduna State High Court has again released them, but the trigger-happy Major General Buhari denied the seriously sick Couple access to their International passport that will enable them to travel abroad to seek for proper medication in a well equipped medical facility as recommended by qualified domestic and foreign medical personnels. As such, what so-ever happen to them, or their health, Buhari and his Minister of Justice Malami Abubakar must be held responsible.
It may be remembered that a case was filed at the Federal High Court Abuja seeking for the Enforcement of Fundamental Rights of the ill Sheikh and his weel chair bound Wife which legally ought not to be delayed by any reason but the matter suffered series of adjournments and delayed when it should not be.
During the last sitting of the Court on 22nd February, 2023 a definite hearing was commenced and adjourned to Thursday 30th March for delivering judgement on the matter and unfortunately the judge dismissed the case saying he is not convinced that the government denied the Sheikh and his wife their international passports which all people of conscious considered unjust and illogical.
A protest kicked started from the Federal High Court Abuja and march through Shehu Shagari express way to the Federal Secretariat.
The protest was about to terminated and the combined team of the Nigerian Police and Army arrived and started shooting with live ammunition, eight people sustained life-threatening gun shot injury with one on his Tommy, two sustained fracture on their legs as a result of the gunshot, one was shot on his back and others also with so many Injuries causing lots of threats.
Finally, we call on the International Human Rights Watch, and the International Criminal Court (ICC), to force General Buhari and Malami Abubakar to remove the travel ban on Sheikh Zakzaky and his wife and as well, release their International passports, we will continue to protest until Sheikh Zakzaky and his wife regain their total freedom.
