The Nigerian Senate and House of Reps have summoned Chief of Army Staff, Mr. Tukur Buratai over a clash with Shiite Muslims in Zaria which led to the death of over 60 people.

The Director General of the Department of State Services, Lawan Daura, and “heads of other security agencies,” would be summoned by a House joint Committee on Army/National Security/Intelligence and Public Safety.

Also to appear before the House are the top leaders of the Islamic Movement, “as well as other stakeholders as the House may deem fit to discuss the issue.”

“The Chief of Army Staff will have to come and testify before the committee as an important stakeholder. The committee has the mandate of the House to invite him. The DG, as well as the DSS too, is relevant to this investigation. It will involve heads of other security agencies since the committee will be looking at the security implications or otherwise of the clash. The leaders of the Islamic Movement will also have to come and state their side of the matter before the committee can reach any reasonable conclusions," a National Assembly official said.

As usual, he will come with edited video tailored to represent the best interests of the army and highlight the shia as aggressors after which a vote of those in support of the massacre will win---- A beauty of democracy where a foolish majority will always have their way.

Until all this structures deliberately put up exploited and abused by the elite against the masses are pulled down and done with the masses will forever be at the receiving end. To the streets I say.

I just hope the senators with conscience will ask the right questions and not display the uselessness seen in their "bow and go" display during the "Noisemakers" profiling.

They should also use this opportunity and ask why the army is so audacious in killing unarmed protesters in the SE and SS of the country. The actions of these men recently and the deafening silence of the terrorist in Aso Rock is ominous.

Tell me who the boko haram attacked in their first attack. For your information they started in Maiduguri and their first suicide attack was done in Abuja. You guys are twisting it to make it seem the Boko haram attacked only christians at first


So there are no christians in maiduguri? Go and educate yourself before educating your people.

If I am Nigerian President and my Chief of Army Staff was made to turn back on a Nigerian road blocked by some hooligans, I'd sack him. The day the Chief of army staff is prevented from moving in this country, then who else can move around freely?
I was told by a US police officer friend, that if you raise a small pocket knife at a police officer from 50 meters, he will gun you down instantly as that is a threat to his life and the United States government. But in a recent video I saw Nigerian Army Generals begging armed hooligans almost to a point of ridicule.
While the deaths of those Shiites are regrettable, but more regrettable are stories of Nigerian security agents constantly killed by civilians mobs.
In 2013, 46 police officers and ten SSS officers were killed in Nassarawa state by village hoodlums. Recently 10 SSS officers were murdered by Vandals in Lagos.These are men and women who are made to provide security for all of us. The stories are numerous.
I'm sure the Iranian President won't condone it if a group of Pentecostal Christians blocks his Army chief from moving inside Iran.
Religious leaders should begin to teach their ardent followers about respect for institutions. Even if a civil defence officer, he stands as a representative of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.~Ken Agala

Those senators do not have work to do. What else do they want to hear. It is better to even scrap the senate, it will save us some billions. I dont know their value, other than collecting sitting and wardrope allowances among others. Setting committe upon committe without positive results. What a waste of resources.

Neither. You should know neither freedom nor the chains you speak of comes cheap. Both are expensive and often involves the shedding of blood.

Some is it your blood that will be offered to the tree of freedom?

How about those innocent biafrans that was killed? Have the senate summon the Army over it?
Re: Senate Summons COAS Buratai Over Shiite Muslim Killings In Zaria by Boss13: 7:08am On Dec 21, 2015
Supported. Let the COAS go and explain himself and one of the recommendations, apart from compensation, should be instant sacking for gross misconduct and abuse of power.

Certainly, the shites group are not expected to block the road, but not after you have gain access you return back to kill them off

He is being summoned because of his personal involvement. I don't think the national Assembly actually has any real authority to either punish or reward him...That is the prerogative of the executive.

Wat are they waiting for to summon Buhari over this fuel price. They should not divert our focus from d fuel issues. They don't buy @ the high price. they enter NNPC Mega station to buy fuel without entering d 2 kilometers queue all in d name of National Stateman. During the past Administration we never suffer long for fuel like this ooooooo.
They are just diverting Nigerian interest to another thing.

Nigerian politicians and do you know "who I am" syndrome, I have come to understand 1thing, except people die or you go by protest, that's the only way one could be heard in this country.

I remember vividly when Gov. Tanko Almakura's aid assaulted a lady driving on their way.... They left d matter to die because there was no casualties, d lady did not get any justice.

Till d day everyman will b equal in d eyes of others... Till then... I reserve my comments.
