Very good. When this same Shiite clashed with army in the last administration, APC goons on NL rolled out drums singing and dancing that GEJ is killing the north..I wonder what they will say now

Killing humans is not very good.

Your observation on these people is very correct though. Watch as they spin it on Dasuki.

Don't be surprised if the storm here to say it's Dasuki that shot the people dead.

Is that why they should be killed? What is our business if they decide to trek from Kano to Iran

When it comes to confronting boko haram then our soldiers will suddenly lack weapons, but when it involves harmless Nigerians they become lions.

Lol.... I was in Kano 2013, these guys are a real menace to peaceful societies. Even Kano Muslims avoid them like plague and Sabon-gari is always tense every time they start their procession. Sadly, Hisbah (kano state religious police) escorts them most of the time, implying some form of government support.
Well grin

Let me tell u this, Buhari has nothing to do with this, It also happened last year sometimes in july when your hero was the president. The Shiites are known to be troublesome and are always in confrontation with the army.

I live in zaria and I know how uncomfortable they make the town. they have been disrespecting the soldiers. most of their members are illiterate from villages. They chose to misbehave at the wrong time when the Nigerian Army was conducting the passing out parade of their recruits. the army has already drafted thousands of soldiers for the occasion. Soldiers have taken over every where in zaria in thousands. ready to shoot on sight. we stand with the Nigerian Army because we know they wouldn't attack them without concrete reasons. we just pray it ends soon so that we can continue with our lives

Re: Soldiers And Shiites Clash In Zaria, Seven Killed by Ghost01(m): 5:24pm On Dec 12, 2015
The military should stop attacking these Shiites. If those who carried out last year's killings had been punished, this wouldn't have happened. The other day it was Boko Haram, this time around it's the military. I saw their procession last week and it was peaceful. Those who always come out to say they are wielding dangerous weapons are not sincere. So long as these guys keep getting attacked, being denounced as non-muslims and all sorts, it's only a matter of time before the oil on fire gets hot, and believe me when I say this, Boko Haram will be child's play compared.

Yes, those of us that live in Zaria know that these Shiites and their al Zakzakiy are trouble makers, but the ignorant ones on this forum do not have an idea on the troubles that this group perpetrates in Zaria.

Shia, an abbreviation of Shiatu ʻAli(followers of Ali), is a branch of Islam which holds that the Islamic prophet Muhammad's proper successor as Caliph was his son-in-law and cousin Ali ibn Abi Talib . Shia Islam primarily contrasts with Sunni Islam, whose adherents believe that Muhammad's father-in-law, Abu Bakr , not Ali ibn Abi Talib, was his proper successor.
Re: Soldiers And Shiites Clash In Zaria, Seven Killed by crosbreaka: 5:32pm On Dec 12, 2015
it looks like they are against ISIL and Saudi Wahhabism, the radical brand of Islam that Boko Haram holds to. even in Washington they hold procession. they are fond of religious processions.


Shiite Muslims hold anti-terrorism rally in Washington

By Michelle Boorstein December 7

Hundreds of Shiite Muslims turned a major annual spiritual ritual into an anti-terrorism rally Sunday, marching, singing and praying for hours from trendy Dupont Circle to the White House as tourists and brunch-goers rubbernecked.

Connecticut Avenue was a sea of black as Shiites mostly from the D.C. region waved banners with the name of their spiritual forefather, Imam Hussein, and pounded their chests with their fists simultaneously as an expression of mourning. His martyrdom 1,400 years ago is a major part of Shiite narrative and a defining event in the break between Shiite and Sunni Muslims, and is marked annually. A few days ago, more than 22 million Shiites and others visited the Iraqi city of Karbala in a pilgrimage to the place where Hussein died.

But this year the event twinned as a peace march. Muslims — including head-covered women, young children and hipsters with man buns on hoverboards — held signs condemning terrorism and the Islamic State and handed out hot chocolate and doughnuts in an effort to open conversations with passersby.

Some American Muslim groups and prominent U.S. Muslims have been making extra public efforts since the recent terrorism-related killings in San Bernardino, Calif., to speak against the Islamic State terrorist group, which is also known as ISIS, and radical Islamists.

“What’s happening now is we feel even more compelled to come out of our homes,” said Zehra Raza, 27, an electrical engineer from Alexandria, Va., who was at the rally with her husband.

The crowd was smaller than in past years, she and others said, because many Muslims were afraid of being harassed or targeted with violence. Such incidents have been on the rise. Many police officers were on hand, and there were no obvious protests against the rally.

When the crowd arrived at Lafayette Park across from the White House, tourists pulled out their cellphones. One group from Poland attempted in broken English to explain to a pair from Colombia what was going on.

“Some [Muslims] were afraid, but I think this is the perfect time to come out and stand with people who are oppressed. ISIS is the same as what Hussein was fighting 1,400 years ago,” Raza said.

ISIS has persecuted Shiites — among other religious minorities — in Syria and Iraq, called them infidels and killed them.

As Raza spoke, and offered strangers Krispy Kreme doughnuts, a woman from outside the group approached her to offer support and give her a hug. “God bless. Or whomever bless — the universe bless,” the woman said as she walked away.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson says that the U.S. cannot "vilify" all American Muslims in the wake of recent violent extremism in the U.S. and overseas. (AP)

Many of the signs echoed the views of marchers — that Shiites are victims of ISIS, and in particular of the Wahhabi branch of Islam that dominates Saudi Arabia. The front row of the marchers was a phalanx of young boys holding posterboards with words such as “Americans unite against Wahhabi terrorism,” “Muslims against ISIS” and “American Shia Muslims stand with the victims of San Bernardino.”

Ali Alkhafa, 23, a University of Maryland student who grew up in California but was born in a Saudi refugee camp, said Muslim Americans are hindered from being a louder voice against terrorism by their own internal divisions.

“Muslims aren’t as vocal as we need to be,” he said as the sound of men thumping their chests punctuated the air. “It’s cultural. We’re welcoming but not as open to one another as we should be. My folks’ generation are still isolated [by ethnic group], but my generation is really open.”

The crowd appeared conservative. Men and women marched mostly separately, and women’s heads were covered. However, participants said they were more ideologically diverse, and were deferring to the more traditional gestures out of respect for one another. In the mix were convenience store managers, emergency room doctors and chemistry teachers.

so holding peaceful processions to commemorate religious events now amount to "trouble making"?

is it better to hold peaceful religious ceremonies as the Shia Muslims do or to behave like jungle animals like Wahhabi Boko Haram does?

for those who dont know, recently the largest pilgrimage on earth was held in Iraqi city of Karbala. over 20 million Shia Muslims converged on the shrine of Hussain Ibn Ali, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammed revered by Shi'ite Muslims in the Iraqi holy city of Karbala.

if in london and washingon and other western capitals, and even in accra (ghana) and elsewhere they hold their peaceful processions, why should a religious procession be seen as a cause for concern in Zaria? after all, it is not more than the roads they make use of. if western countries can tolerate such processions in their capital, then why should they be shot elsewhere?
