December 8, 2016

On December 5th, the Kaduna State Government in Nigeria issued a long-awaited White Paper on clashes last year that resulted in the deaths of a reported 348 civilians and one soldier. We fully agree with the White Paper’s recommendation that members of the military who were involved in the unlawful killing of civilians must be held accountable and punished appropriately. As the one-year anniversary of this tragic event approaches, we call on the federal government to be diligent, transparent, and expeditious in following through on this recommendation.

We are concerned by the White Paper’s characterization of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) as an “insurgent group,” and urge the Nigerian government at every level to seek pathways for non-violent engagement with all citizens, including minority religious groups. We also encourage the federal government to act on the Abuja high court’s decision on December 2 that IMN leader Ibrahim Zakzaky and his wife should be released from prison within 45 days, as they have been held without charge since the events of last December.

We note reports that the IMN has taken actions that have undermined public order and safety. We call on the IMN to respect public order and cooperate with law enforcement authorities as they carry out their lawful duties.

Respect for the rule of law and the civil rights of all segments of society is a hallmark of democracy. As the White Paper notes, “the right to freedom of worship is a cherished constitutional right” in Nigeria that must be protected. We encourage the people and the government of Nigeria to support these fundamental principles, regardless of religion, ethnicity, or region.

Thank God for President Donald Trump !

The outgoing President Obama would have simply secretly congratulated his religious buddies, the northern governors and kept quiet about all these killings of innocents happening in Nigeria under his bossom friend Buhari.

That's good development from US. I think Amnesty Int'l and other members of the internatinal community should lend their vioces to these wantom killings of innocent citizens of these country by the govt that is suppose to protect them. IPOB, Southern Kaduna, Zaria (shite) and other massacre that happened within the last 18 months should be probed and perpetrators adequately purnished.

Meanwhile this is my first to comment since the past 9 years I joined this forum. Pls show me some likes is not easy. Seun should send my recharge card immediatly.
WHY JUST 18MONTHS? they should extend it to the last 17 years. killing of unarmed northerners by GEJS army led by iherika shouldnt be left unattended to. the perpetrators must be brought to book.

USA? Many Nigerians that are commenting here seem to me that, they don't think, or they are poor student of history. What a friend of a lion to a goat. If care is not taking, usa may begin to sponsor these rebels against state. So as to fast track the breakage of the country. And make their prophecy become true. We know the consequence of your consern to people of Libya, Iraq, Syria Kosovo etc. Pls USA mind your own business ooooo, before thunder of high heaven strike your country.

you know SouthWest always and would always have rich fertile soil and minerals. Should we break, no region will perish. Take note of that. But its your people who doesn't have anywhere else to go other that here and there to do business that will face the music most. Why do you think SE people return to West and North after the civil war?? Why can't they stay in East if its good for them. Don't pray for your destruction, just because you are eating 3 square meal comfortable today.
