The reported killing of wife of the leader of Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheik Ibrahim Zakzaky, has been dismissed by the Nigerian army.
The army said the wife, Zeenatudeen, is alive and under protective custody alongside her husband who was said to have shot by troops in the overnight raid of the sect leader residence.

According to Sahara Reporters, this clarification was made this evening, December 14, by the general officer commanding 1 division of the Nigerian army, Major General Adeniyi Oyebade at a press conference.

Adeniyi explained that Zeenatudeen and her husband were rescued in the course of the clash that had so far claimed 100 lives according to reports.

However, the fate of the son of the Shi’ite group is uncertain as at the time of filing this report even as the army had not commented on even if he is death or live. Reports in the media stated earlier that both wife and son of the sect leaders were killed in the bloody clash.

Umar Shehu, the Kaduna state commissioner of police during a media briefing said that the Shi’ite did not sought for police permit before it embark on the protest that eventually led to the deadly clash with troops.

In a related development, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, the Sultan of Sokoto, had warned President Buhari and his government over killing in Zaria, Kaduna state.

Lets Hope so

Picture or I don't believe

naija I hail oooo

which one be Shi'ite again kwa??!?

See the useless sultan, am sure the sunni Muslim head he is happy with the killing of the "rogue" shites

The leader's wife may be alive, but how many wives did the army slaughter?

Whatever the crimes of the sect against the Nigerian state, it does not necessitate going into their homes ,killing their wives and children.

The shiites were definitely reckless, but the Nigerian army were barbaric.

May God help our president to rule this country very well. The distraction he is facing is just too much;boko,IPOB,economy and fuel wahala. He will be strong!

Was she dead before? Sheet ko...............
