Concerned Nigerians call for release of Sheikh Zakzaky’s passport

A group of concerned Nigerians have urged the West African nation to release the passport of leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, and his wife, Zeenat.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A group of concerned Nigerians have urged the West African nation to release the passport of leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, and his wife, Zeenat.

The group, under the auspices of Concerned Abuja Indigenes, said Sheikh Zakzaky was brutalized during the 2015 Zaria massacre, resulting in the murder of his six sons and thousands of his followers.

They said the Islamic cleric has remained resolute and law abiding, so there is need for the court to resolve the issue of his travel documents immediately.

The Abuja Concerned Indigenous said IMN leader have dangerous levels of lead and cadmium in their blood and required medical treatment overseas. They said delaying the medical trip is an infringement on their rights.

Zakzaky and his wife were detained on false charges after the Zaria massacre on 2015 and released in July 2021.
