Onyocha:
What is your point?

he was asking if zazakky was there

Onyocha:
Why the army is greatly blamed is because they later on launched an attack at the worship center and the sheikh's house (two separate locations) after they have shot people and cleared the road (a third separate location) for the convoy to pass.

Why did they bring reinforcements to attack a worship center and a cleric's house after the convoy had passed? Was it Zakzaky that blocked the road? Was it his deputy who got shot and killed? Was it his wife and son who were shot? Was it the hundreds of people in the hussainiyyah and house? Why did the army escalate the situation and it led to hundreds of deaths , way more than the seven they shot to clear the road. This is inexcusable brutality and the culprits must be brought to justice and punished so a reoccurrence doesn't happen and the climate of impunity ends.

from the Video one of them was saying that zakzaky have to give them order before they will allow the chief of Army staff to pass. Even if the president comes he will not be allowed to pass.

Those arm officers took risk, anything could have happen to them
lalasticala, seun

Even before the December 12 incident, tension has been building in the ancient city of Zaria. The development stemmed from a misunderstanding that has been brewing between Shiites and the members of the Dariqa sect over a Juma’at (Friday) mosque at the Gabari village on the outskirts of Zaria. This, according to the late spokesperson of the Shiites, Ibrahim Usman, led to the killing of four of their members last Friday, December 11. Usman in an interview with our correspondent said their problem with the Gabari residents started over pre-Khutba (sermon) preaching, which the Shiites members conduct at the mosque every Friday.
The events of Friday, according to Usman, forced the Shiites to block the PZ-Samaru Road on Saturday as part of security measures to safeguard their centre, Hussainiyya, and members that gathered to hoist a flag to mark the commencement of the Maulud, birthday celebration of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Usman, who spoke in Hausa, said: “Three of our members were killed on Friday, and one was killed last week. To forestall reoccurrence, security measures were put in place when our members gathered.”
However, a resident of Gabari, Sani Danasabe, said the Shiites were mobilising on that Saturday to move to the area on a revenge mission when the convoy of the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai, ran into them.
“On Friday, December 11, Juma’at prayers did not take place at our mosque in Gabari, because the residents and security agents had taken over the mosque. However, on that Friday night, intelligence reports reached us that the Shiites would storm this village on Saturday to avenge the killing of their members. This was why everyone deserted the area out of fear.
“On that Saturday morning, only the aged were left in Gabari mosque praying to Allah not to allow anyone to come here to attack the village. While that was going on, later in the afternoon, we learnt of the clash between the Shiites and soldiers. So our people returned to their homes,” Danasabe said.
In a state-wide broadcast on Thursday night, Kaduna State governor, Nasir el-Rufa’i, mentioned the Gabari incident as part of the threats that the Shiites pose to security in the state.


The COAS plea
Apart from the lurking dispute between the Shiites and the residents of Gabari, the Army Depot, Zaria was having its 73rd Passing out Parade (POP) of their recruits, and the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai, was scheduled to be the reviewing officer and special guest of honour. Daily Trust’s investigation revealed that the COAS was to come to Zaria from Jigawa State after he attended the Army officers’ conference. Obviously, any visitor coming to Army Depot, Zaria has no alternative route than the PZ-Samaru Road, which has the alias of Samaru Road.
Residents who know the terrain of Zaria that can manoeuvre their way to the Depot Nigerian Army through other routes, but perhaps being visitors, the COAS team were not aware of those alternative routes, hence their insistence on using Sokoto Road.
From the morning of that Saturday to about noon, Sokoto Road was accessible to motorists and other users, as nobody had blocked it at that time. But afterwards, the Shiites barricaded it from the road’s Karaduwa Motor Park and Nigerian Railways Hospital axis.
By this, the road, which is the major link between Zaria and other major cities of Northern Nigeria, became inaccessible, and it was in the midst of this that the convoy of the army chief arrived.
An eyewitness said: “At about 2pm, we were sitting in PZ when we saw an armoured tank and military men in Hilux vans. I saw an army officer leading the team discussing with the youths that blocked the Karaduwa axis of Sokoto Road, perhaps, trying to persuade them to open the road. But the youths were brandishing clubs, chanting Allahu Akbar (Allah is great). The next thing I heard were gunshots and we all took to our heels. When the gunshots stopped, we came out from hiding and we learnt that the soldiers had taken over Hussainiyya and the road was then opened for motorists.”
A video clip of the incident showed army officers led by Colonel Sani Usman Kukasheka pleading with the Shiites to open the road for the COAS to pass.
After the exchange, the next thing that the video clip showed was the convoy of the COAS manoeuvring through rocks, bonfires and other objects on the road. No Shiite member was seen on the road at that point.


The army siege
As if that was the end, news soon spread that the army had mobilised and took over the Shiite centre, Hussainiyya, at Samaru Road. Many residents thought that that was the end of the episode, but at about 10pm of that Saturday, gunshots and explosions could be heard. The sounds were from soldiers’ efforts to take control of Gyellesu, where Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky’s house is located, and to fortify their hold on the Shiite Hussainiyya.
As of Sunday morning, December 13, the soldiers reportedly took full control of the Gyellesu area. Thereafter, they restricted movement along the PZ-Samaru Road and the Gyellesu quarters. This situation remained the same up to yesterday.
The Shiite statement that followed the siege, which was issued by Ibrahim Musa, the President of the Islamic Movement Media Forum, said the raid of the Zakzaky’s house and Hussainiyya has led to the death of about 1,000 Shiites. These, according to the statement, included Zakzaky’s deputy, Muhammad Turi, wife, Zeenatu and son, Ali.
Later, another statement by Musa said some of those that were earlier mentioned as among the ones that lost their lives were still alive. This is after it was confirmed by the army that Zakzaky and his wife were still alive.


Taking cover
Between Tuesday and Wednesday, it emerged that soldiers had rescued about 220 members of the Shiite who took cover inside a septic tank (popularly called soak-away pit) at Hussainiyya. This was confirmed by Musa who said those rescued were handed over to the police by soldiers. He said the police have since handed the rescued persons to the group.
At the hospital
The only reliable official figure of casualty was the one that was confirmed by the Chief Medical Director of the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Professor Lawal Khalid. He said 61 corpses were taken to the hospital in batches.
However, Musa, on behalf of the Shiite, said his group was not satisfied with the mass burial given to the deceased that were deposited at the ABUTH, saying that the authorities ought to have handed them over to the group for burial according to Islamic rites.


Mixed views from Gyellesu
Residents of Gyellesu and other areas of Zaria hold different views in regards to what happened. They were however unanimous that both the army and Shiites should have taken different steps. Resident Maikudi Shehu said: “It is true that the activities and behaviour of some Shiites is uncivilised. Sometimes, some of them behave like thugs. Their leaders should have called them to order, to avoid a situation like this.”
“However, one cannot also deny the fact that many Shiites are humble and civilised. Starting from Zakzaky, he assists the less-privileged, especially his neighbours. In emergencies, Zakzaky would give out the group’s ambulance for a sick person to be taken to hospital, among many other humanitarian activities. But as you know, no matter the good you are doing, a single bad egg can render everything useless.”
Another resident, Isma’il Abubakar, said the activities of the Shiites has made the whole Gyellesu area to become a prison of sorts. “Those of us living in Gyellesu are not in support of killing any individual, otherwise we would have taken the laws into our hands to stop the atrocities of these people. Many people have sold their houses and left. Those who were not lucky couldn’t find buyers because nobody wants to come here.”
He added: “There was a time [the Shiites] mounted checkpoints all over Gyellesu, similar to those of soldiers. No matter who you are, you would have to submit yourself, and even your wife, for checking. There was a time the checkpoints led to a dispute, but the intervention of community leaders calmed nerves at that time.”
Abubakar added: “Also, at a time, no security personal in uniform can enter Gyellesu, because he would be intercepted by the Shiites. You could also recall that Mukhtar Ramalan Yero, as the then governor of Kaduna State was made to disembark from his car to trek to an associate’s house because he was stopped by the Shiites. If you remember, that led to the protest that resulted to the destruction of all the gates of Gyellesu. This is apart the fact that whenever the convoy of Zakzaky was on the road, motorists would be stopped so he could pass. During their festivities, Zaria would usually be on standstill, because they would take over all the roads. There were many things that these people were doing that would force one to ask whether there is a government in Nigeria.”


Government team
The Minister of Interior, retired Lieutenant-General Abdulrahman Dambazau, was in Zaria as the leader of a federal government delegation for on-the-spot assessment. Leading a delegation that comprises the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Solomon Aranze, and other top brass of the ministry, to the emir of Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, Dambazau said that they were in Zaria to see things for themselves. He said at this crucial time of Nigeria’s development, the country needs peace more than ever before.
Dambazau commended the fatherly role that the Emir of Zazzau has been playing in promoting peaceful coexistence not only in Zaria but Kaduna State and Nigeria, in general.
In his response, the Emir said Zaria is known for peace, saying that his emirate would continue to do everything possible in ensuring that peace continues to prevail. He urged all residents of the city to continue to be law- abiding.
Before leaving Zaria, Dambazau visited Gyellesu quarters where Sheikh Zakzaky’s house is located, and their centre Hussainiyya at Sokoto Road.


‘Zakzaky must be released!’
The Shiites in some states of Northern Nigeria like Kano, Kaduna, among others, poured out on the streets, protesting what they called the killing of their innocent colleagues and the arrest of their leader, Sheikh Zakzaky.
The protesters called on relevant authorities to immediately release Sheikh Zakzaky for proper medical care. Except in Kaduna where violence characterised the protest, in other states it ended peacefully.


El-Rufai’s big hammer
In a broadcast on Thursday night, governor Nasir El-Rufai, outlined some of the reasons why his government would not continue to tolerate the activities of the Shiites. He said they have no respect for constituted authorities. “Recently, they took over major highways for days without permission. In the process of their trekking they took over our schools and stopped the studies of our children. Their Hussainiyya was built without the permission of the government.”
He added that a demolition notice was served to them, “But they continued their building. Recently, they went to take over a mosque at Gabari village and they were not the ones that built it. We are not stopping anybody from practicing religion, but should do so in accordance with the law without infringing the rights of other citizens.”
The governor said street protests without permission have been banned in the state, and blocking of roads in the name of any gathering was also outlawed.


Normalcy gradually returning
Yesterday, soldiers were still in control of Gyellesu area and the PZ-Samaru Road. Cars moving into Gyellesu were thoroughly searched while those riding motorcycles were made to disembark before passing the Army’s checkpoints. The PZ-Samaru Road was completely barricaded by the Army. Motorists and other users have to take alternative routes. Apart from these two areas, normal activities, including banking operations, were moving on peacefully in all parts of Zaria.

The Nigerian Army yesterday confirmed it had arrested, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria and his wife.
The Islamic Movement in Nigeria on Sunday said the sect leader’s wife, Zeenatu had been killed along with several others in Sunday’s assault on its headquarters.
However, in a statement yesterday the sect said the wife was alive, but was shot and wounded along with the Sheikh.
The General Officer Commanding 1 Mechanisd Army Division, Kaduna, Major Greneral Adeniyi Oyebade said at a press conference in Kaduna that it was the responsibility of the security forces to bring law and order back to any society within the rules of engagement.
He said: “The Shi’ite leader and his wife are safe and in protective custody even though I do not know how many wives he has since it was reported that his wife is dead and in the course of time, he, himself, will be speaking to his members.
“Just after Mr President left Kaduna to Abuja after a successful official visit, I decided to go to Zaria to meet up with the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant Tukur Buratia who was to pay a courtesy visit on the Emir of Zazzau and also attend the PoP of our recruited in Deport Nigerian Army.
“He (COAS) was coming in from Dutse, because that same week we held the COAS conference in Dutse in Jigawa State. He got to Zaria at about 14.30 hours (2.30pm) and the advance security team had cleared the road up to and including the city center, there was no problem, the same security team made a u-turn to now bring in the COAS’s convoy which is our normal security routine whenever we are escorting our boss.
“But shockingly enough, members of the Shi’ite sect led by El-Zakzaky blocked the Sokoto road to be precise and we found out that that was unusual, but because we thought that they were being overzealous so two senior officers in the CAOS’s convoy came down from their vehicles appealing to these hoodlums to please clear the road so that the COAS can go ahead with his scheduled programme.
“All entreaties, appeals to this Shi’ite sect members numbering in their hundreds refused to budge. It got to the point that they started throwing dangerous missiles, stones, machete and all kinds of traditional or crude weapons I would say on the COAS convoy.
“It was at that point that it dawned on the security forces especially the bodyguards of the Chief including our quick response group stationed in Zaria that this was not something that happened spontaneously, it was in our calculation pre-meditated and of course whenever any VIP or any facility that is under our charge, we must secure that person or the property, in this case, the COAS, and it came to the quick conclusion of the security forces that the life of the COAS was under threat and they had no other option than to force their way through the blockage including the use of lethal weapons.
“That is allowed within the rules of engagement, as if that was not enough, as he was moving through, they were mobilizing in their hundreds, thankfully, the COAS was able to wade through these hoodlums and went on to pay homage to the Emir before getting to Deport Nigerian Army.
“While this was going on, recall I said we had just seen off the president in company of the CP, I got a report from my commanders in Zaria of what was happening and of course, I started racing to the scene to find out exactly what was happening. But thankfully, by the time I got there the COAS had passed through, but then, we got reports that the Shi’ite members where mobilizing across Zaria in their various enclaves, shrines or what have you.
“As the GOC of 1 Division I take that very seriously that the life of the COAS is under threat and within the rules of engagement permissible by law, I had to bring the forces available to me to bring the situation under control and that was exactly what I did, but because we are operating in a city, we also informed the police of what was happening and they also provided the mobile police force to be able to restore law and order.
“My initial orders to the security agencies were just to keep everywhere cool and calm but little did we know that we were in for the bloody night. As you all know, the Shi’ite members numbered in their thousands and they were mobilizing and attacking security forces across Zaria.
“Again within the rules of engagement, we had to use the force available to bring it down and that was exactly what did, quite a number of our security forces were also casualties in this dastardly act by the sect so also some members of the Shi’ite sect and because of the report we had that they are mobilizing at their three key strong points including the big temple called the Hussaniyya, the area occupied by the sect leader in Gyelleus and another temple somewhere on Danbo road, I decided that I have to bring the situation under control by securing those three sites.
“In the course of this engagement, of course there were casualties, there are also causalities among the security forces, in this operation, I made one categorical statement to my men, we must within the rules of our engagement make sure as much as it was feasible then to bring in the leader of the sect alive, we do not want him dead, he is a citizen of Nigeria, but we felt that, giving the raging violence in the city, it was important that we bring him into protective custody. At about 9.15 today (yesterday) morning we successfully executed that.
“I want to send a message across all the Shi’ite members across the length and breadth of Nigeria especially in North-West zone under my charge, I urge them to keep the peace, I urge them to be law abiding, I urge them not to offer violence to members of the security forces, I urge them to go about their activities peacefully,’ he said.
“I want to assure them that the security forces have nothing agent the sect and in fact, I see them as my brothers and sister for the simple reason that we are all Nigerians and we all have the same rights under the law,” he added.

Killings, arrests continue
A statement issued yesterday by the Shi’ite said Sheikh Zakzaky has been taken to an unknown place.
The statement signed by Ibrahim Musa, President of Media Forum of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, said a source confirmed to them that the cleric is still alive.
He said; “a source has confirmed that the Army has taken the revered leader of the movement, Sayyid Ibraheem Zakzaky (H), from his house this morning (Sunday) and is receiving treatment for injuries he sustained during the attack.
“There are hundreds of others that have received various degrees of injuries that are in need of assistance, but are currently being denied access by the soldiers on ground who are in a killing spree, shooting anyone identified as a member of the movement.”
“We wish to state here that some of those earlier declared dead through various sources might not have been killed but might be severely injured and in need of assistance. Members of the movement should be allowed immediate access to Sayyid Ibraheem Zakzaky (H) as a mean of taming the situation from aggravating unnecessarily.”
The statement called on the international community and peace loving Nigerians to intervene in stopping what it called the massacre oftheir members.
Meanwhile, many people were reported killed and dead bodies of those that lost their lives in the clash were deposited at the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Zaria between Sunday and yesterday, Daily Trust learnt..
The ABUTH source said; “you know before they bring in any corpse, they have to liaise with the management of the hospital. I am sure the management of the hospital are aware about the corpses, but I saw several of them deposited at the morgue.”
All attempts to get the Chief Medical Director of the hospital, Professor Lawal Khalid, for confirmation were in vain, as his line was not connecting

Main rival of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki in the June 9th election, Senator Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan yesterday broke his silence on the floor.

Lawan (APC, Yobe North) was the preferred candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Senate Presidency. The candidature of Lawan, a third term Senator was advanced by the Unity Forum.

Saraki, however emerged as the Senate President when Lawan and his camp members were at the International Conference Centre (ICC) for a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.

Since Saraki's emergence, Lawan has been keeping mum on the floor of the Red Chamber but he broke his silence during a debate on the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) submitted by President Buhari on Tuesday.

Our correspondent reports that Lawan spoke for eight minutes with his colleagues listening attentively.

Lawan said it was miraculous that the country survived the 2015 elections despite the tension, " It is a miracle that the country survived it".

He said the 38 dollars per barrel benchmark template used by the Federal Government for the 2016 budget was realistic.

He urged Nigerians to support President Buhari to deliver what he tagged as, " the goodies of change".

" This is a new dawn for Nigeria. This is a budget for the emancipation of Nigerians who are denied good things in the last 16 years. Under this budget, our pupils will get free meals, " he said

Moboboost Will Be Shutting Down

We regret to announce to you that Moboboost will be shutting down
effective from today 3rd December, 2015 due to our inability to secure the
much needed financing to expand the company.

In the past 3 months, we have being on an aggressive drive to raise funds.
Prior to this time, the company was internally funded by senior management
and founder. Multi-million naira investment went into product development
and launch. When Moboboost shifted to mobile 100%, due to customer demand,
another set of investment was made internally and Moboboost was
redeveloped for mobile. At the completion of the mobile shift, it became
necessary to source for more funding.

In the past 3 months, we have being sourcing for funding. However, the
technological climate in Nigeria is not fully developed and funding the
technology sector is not seen as a viable investment for financial
institutions.

Due to our inability to secure the much needed funding, we regret to
announce that Moboboost is shutting down effective from today 3rd
December, 2015. As the company shuts down, all partners and staffs have
been relieved of their appointments.

We wish you all the best in your future endeavours.


Signed,
Moboboost Management

PDP is obviously running out of dubious funds. all the REMI and TAJU acronymns are simply nonsense to derail what is going on.
