The federal government has raised allegation against the leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky accusing him of plotting to turn Nigeria into an Islamic state. This was contained in a counter-affidavit filed by the government against IMN’s motion which challenged the Federal High Court’s order proscribing the group. According to Premium Times, Justice Nkeonye Maha adjourned the case filed by the federal government against the Shi’ite leader and his group.

The government also claimed El-Zakzaky had the backing of Iran to change the country to an Islamic state. Ayo Apata who is the solicitor-general of the federation asked for more time to regularise the process and this was not opposed by Femi Falana who is the counsel to the Shi’ite leader. Legit.ng had reported that the Federal High Court, Abuja fixed September 11 to hear a motion filed by the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), asking the court to vacate the exparte order it gave on July 26 proscribing its activities in the country. Justice Nkeonye Maha adjourned the case after hearing the two counsels. The court had, upon an ex-parte motion by the office of the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), also declared the group a terrorist organisation.

But Buhari wants to turn Nigeria to one big Ruga und Fulani control.

The only reason they don't see eye to eye with IMN is because IMN wants to dismantle the corrupt Fulani Emirate system.

They are not against BH because BH wants to consolidate and expand the Fulani caliphate and that is why they will never oppose BH.

IMN is a threat to them just as Maitassine was. As Maitassine wanted to topple the Fulani aristocracy via a revolutionary class uprising and so that is why the Amirs and Sultan came together to deal decisively with these two movements.

Anything that will destroy the House of Fodio is welcomed by me.
