Femi Falana Warns Buhari Over Illegal Detention Of Shiites Leader, El-Zakzaky

Femi Falana, human right lawyer and activist, has condemned the continued detention of Shiite leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, by the federal government.

Speaking with journalists on Tuesday he said; “This nation cannot afford another war of insurgency which is being provoked by the contemptuous conduct of the federal government in the handling of the case of the Elzakzakys,”

“The Shiites won the cases against the Federal Government as the courts upheld their fundamental rights to freedom of expression, association, and assembly. But out of sheer impunity, the army has killed about 50 Shiites at Abuja for protesting against the continued detention of El-Zakzaky and his wife.

“As the federal government could no longer justify the illegal detention of El-Zakzaky and his wife it directed the Kaduna state government to file a charge against them. Hence, they have been charged with culpable homicide at the Kaduna state high court for the death of the same soldier.
