Dismiss, prosecute soldiers who murdered 348 Shiites – UK urges Nigeria

The United Kingdom on Thursday urged the Nigerian government to implement a White Paper which recommended the dismissal and prosecution of soldiers who murdered 348 members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria aka Shiites in two days of deadly clashes.

Soldiers attached to the Chief of Army Staff, Gen. Yusuf Buratai, opened fire on the Shiites after hundreds of them blocked the army chief’s convoy on Kaduna-Zaria Road. The brutal attack was followed by a deadly raid on the headquarters of the Shiites in Zaria, during which some of the sons of their leader, Ibrahim el-Zakzaky, were killed.

They also abducted Zakzaky and kept him incommunicado till date while the state government demolished buildings owned by the group.

Following public outcry, Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, set up a panel of enquiry. Upon the conclusion of its assignment, the state government issued a White Paper, in which the Nigerian government was called upon to dismiss and prosecute the soldiers.

In a tweet commemorating the first anniversary of the killings, the British High Commission in Abuja recalled that “it’s been a year since the tragic event in Zaria, which reportedly resulted in the deaths of 348 civilians and one soldier.”

Making specific demands, it stated: “We call on the Nigerian Federal Government to take the recommendations made in the Zaria report forward in order to ensure that any future actions taken by the Nigerian Armed Forces are in accordance with international human rights law and/or international humanitarian law.”

That is the most reasonable thing to do but I think the soldiers were just following instructions that came from above.


No sane soldier will embark on such mission without being sent by people at the top so it will be a breach of trust/contract to prosecute them.


This is why I don't Type RIP when bokoharam deal with them.

This is the right thing to do, but Sunni muslims would rather burn themselves alive than punish fellow Sunnis for killing Shias/Shiites. Sunnis hate Shiites almost as much as they hate non-muslims, despite the fact that Sunnis and Shias practice Islam in almost exactly the same way.

The main problem is the Saudi promoted Wahhabi ideology which has contaminated Sunni Islam. And the influence of Wahhabism stinks in every division and infighting among Sunnis and Shias.

Yea. Even here, Sunni muslims have claimed that Shias are worse than Boko Haram, which is astonishing and revealing. What have they done?

"Shia are worse than boko haram" is a pirated form of "Shia are worse than the Jews".

In the Middle East, Wahhabi aka Salafist clerics parrot that "Shiites are worse than Jews". You can search the phrase on Google.

It's Wahhabism for you. The essence of Wahhabism is takfirism. Due to takfirism, and takfiri killings which are un-Islamic by the way, you get all the hatred. Those little Wahhabi e-soldiers are only parrots.

Will they also demise and prosecute Buratai the man that gave order?
Even if the PMB led government follows this recommendation,innocent soldiers who where simply following orders will be used as scape goats to appease the international community,leaving Buratai cuz he's a saint according to APC and PMB.

Remember when BH started. They started with Christians/churches, and we all know the church don't control the police. Both the sunnis and shítes are evil . . .

This would be the right thing to do but we know this government and their hypocrisy. Some people are worth more than some.

If they were going to take action against those soldiers, they would have done so since without the British having to urge them to do so.

How can they sanction soldiers who were working under orders from the Chief of army staff, that could cause a mutiny of sorts.

Why should the soldiers be killed for killing insurgents? Have they killed all the Fulani herdsmen that are killing people in their homes? So why shud soldiers be killed for curtailing the excesses of borne lawbreaker?

No, I am an atheist, but it doesn't matter. Most reasonable people are siding with the Shiites because what was done to them was very wrong.
