No fewer than five policemen were feared killed including a Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Usman Umar, in Charge of Operations in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Police Command lost their lives when an encounter with protesting members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) also called Shiites turned violent in Abuja on Monday.

Daily Trust also gathered that many Shiites members were killed in the clash with policemen at the three arms zone in Abuja, where DCP Umar was killed by the protesters while trying to maintain law and order.

The Nigerian Police fired tear gas and bullets to disperse members of the IMN as they marched to the Federal Secretariat in Abuja.

The shi’ites procession, which began peacefully from the NICON Junction in Maitama however turned violent as the police blocked the group at the Federal Secretariat and fired tear gas to disperse the protesters.

The protest turned violent as some persons were shot and a vehicle was set on fire on the road opposite the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Police officers summoned fire fighters to the scene, as roads leading to the Villa, National Assembly and Police Force Headquarters were cordoned by the military and other security agencies.

“They used live bullets on our members and many have been killed,” Abdullahi Musa, a spokesman of the group said. The Police said that it cannot confirm whether live bullets were used on some protesting members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN).

Black on black

Slowly degenerating

A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.

I can't pity the shiite nor support the cattle herder president.

If not for the shia-sunni clash, the so called shiite would have been one of the die hard sentimental rogues shouting sai baba, and supporters of the terrorist president.
Let the evil religion of piss be divided, let the shiite feel a little of what innocent christians pass through because of their faith.

Buhari is a goat.
Release the man and see his popularity dwindle.
Buhari is just making the man relevant by continuing to detain him. Obey court orders!

I fear for Nigeria more everyday

Mr President you're brewing another set of terrorists, Real El zakzaky to save us another dangerous Islamic sect.

Nigeria, which way? Shey Na part of the next level be this?

PMB seems to be less concerned about the state of security in the land. I am kind of surprised

Anybody that watched the video can see that it was only the police that were holding guns and shooting sporadically..... They even burnt some structures and said it was the Shiites that did it.

My brother

Python can never get tired of dancing

Did is what you get when u don't obey court order....failed Presidency.......

five already down with few petrol bombs and probably few guns. What then will happen if they have access to large cache of guns, suicide vest, petrol bombs and maybe a terrorist group infiltrate them? We are really on a long thing.

If 5 policemen were killed then over 50 Shiites should be dead in the same event; what am i even saying sef?

Only five
