Frank condemns Shiites killing, says Buhari, Buratai must be tried for genocide

Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Comrade Timi Frank, has called on all the international Human rights organisations to note the record of brutal killings, especially that of Shiites people under the current administration, saying President Muhammadu Buhari and his Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai, must face trial after their stay in office.

Frank said contrary to the constitutional provision that security of lives and welfare shall be the responsibility of government, the current All Progressives Congress (APC) administration is encouraging its agents to cause the killing of the citizens.

Recall that on Sunday morning, the protesting Shiites and the Nigerian Army had clashed where some protesting Shiites members were brutally killed.

But while condemning soldiers deadly use of force on supporters of Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) during a religious procession in Zuba, near Abuja, Comrade Frank, in a statement on Monday, said under President Buhari the country has seen a sharp rise in the use of brute force by security agents to quail harmless demonstrators.

According to him, a country where the value of human lives continues to depreciate on a daily basis can only be referred to as a failed state.

The former APC spokesman said the continuing detention of Shia's leader,El-Zakzaky despite several Court orders is uncivilised by any leaders in the world.

"President Buhari-led administration have been releasing the dreaded Boko Baram jihadist under the guise of 'repentant terrorist' yet he does not see anything wrong in attacking the shia members who are peacefully clamouring for the release of their leader who the Court of law had set free.

"The disobedience of this administration to the decision of Court of law portents danger for the country's peace and orderliness.

"If ordinary citizens are being kill by the security agents under an elected democratic government in this manner, such h leader must be ready to be prosecuted for genocide after his short stay in power," Frank stated.

Continued, the outspoken former APC chieftain wondered "how can an army kill her armless citizens with live bullets? I will never support the idea that live bullets were used on the protesters. What manner of provocation will make them shoot unarmed citizens? Soldiers shooting and killing unarmed protesters is a crime against humanity."

While calling on international community to take note of the current development, Frank also called on Amnesty International (AI) and other rights protection international organizations not to close their eyes against the act of "killing innocent citizens for no just cause."

The killings going on in Nigeria by the shiites is totally wrong.

The constant disregard for human lives by the Nigerian army under the leadership of the CinC Mohammed Buhari is unacceptable, civil unrest should be under the jurisdiction of the Nigerian Police Force and protesting crowd can be dispersed by less violence means all lives matter and the rule of law should be upheld at any point in time

Enough is enough. Nigeria can not continues like this. President has finished Nigerians.

This act of killing innocent citizens for no cause has got to stop. The fulani herdsmen who are well armed has not for once been attacked or killed by any security personnel, but they go ahead to kill Armless shite members... this government and their Bias way of ruling.

Dont comment on what u know nothing about

The APC led government of President Buhari has no respect for human lives ordering his army to shoot at protesting civilian is barbaric and wicked to international laws governing the right to free protest and association.Lets us condemn this acts of cowardice with total disdain.

Its hard to admit,bt i must confess timi is making sense in a very long time.bullets versus stones.the most unfair of the unfairs to be ever witnessed

This is totally wrong. how can a person whose job is to protect the citizens is now the one sending the military to kill innocent and unarmed people? this killings and massacres has to stop. Vote Buhari out so he can be tried for the sake of justice.

The shiites has started again? How come the president cant control this people for crying out loud, This are humans dying not animals.

The constant disregard for human lives by the Nigerian army under the leadership of Mohammed Buhari is unacceptable, civil unrest should be under the jurisdiction of the Nigerian Police Force and protesting crowd can be dispersed by less violence means all lives matter and the rule of law should be upheld at any point in time

they don't value others

The present day government has succeeded in taking away our human rights and subjecting us to slaves and powerless victims of war in our own territory. In organized nation and simple as stated in our constitution it is the duty of the police to ensure peace and order and the military ensures the security of the external borders but the case of Buhari the Military are used to make arrest on citizens and are ordered to brutalize and kill.

This is very wrong as the military has plenty of equipments to use in such situations to repeal unarmed protesters void of causing death nor injury to any citizen.
We must all speak up as citizens to condemn the government and its agents used in such evil and uncivil acts.

Sunni wants to wipe off Shi'ites in Nigeria.

Why is the president sleeping and acting like all is well? This shiites killing cant continue, action should be taken and effect immediately.

if Buhari and the Nigerian Army continue to detain El zakzaki they will definitely succeed in turning this Shiites into another terrorist group like Boko Haram. I don't know why Buhari is head bent on holding this man in custody after the court has ordered for his release. This association has been in existence before Buhari became president, then, they didn't cause any trouble.

Under this Buhari led government, killing of innocent Nigerians is the order of the day. Nigerians must vote out this lawless government.

[quote author=gracedarwin08 post=72510389] if Buhari and the Nigerian Army continue to detain El zakzaki they will definitely succeed in turning this Shiites into another terrorist group like Boko Haram. I don't know why Buhari is head bent on holding this man in custody after the court has ordered for his release. This association has been in existence before Buhari became president, then, they didn't cause any trouble.

It is very unfortunate the way human lives is wasted daily in this Buhari regime, how can the military men shoot armless citizens on a peaceful protest with live bullets meanwhile the fulani herdsmen who have brutally killed a lot people are still working free and no drastic action have been taken against them.

When the WICKED are in power, the people SUFFER.

An Islamist blood thirsty regime that murdered hundreds of Shiites and buried them quickly in mass graves in 2015 can do anything to please Saudi Arabia.

How I wish Timi Frank can be made the head of EFCC when Atiku wins because he seems to have the balls and will to deal with Buhari , the next best person will be me , I will bundle Buhari and hand him over to th ICC

Lalasticala

This Frank is talking nonsense. He probably doesn't know the offence of Bokoharam.
