Islam is a peaceful religion.

The 2014 massacre of 34 members of the Islamic Movement, including 3 of Sheikh Zakzaky’s children by the military; the attempt on Sheikh Zakzaky’s convoy by the same military are still on our minds,” he added.

So thats y u attack their convoy abi? Because i know the millitary cannot attack without been provoke.

Mohammed isn't it the problem here@raftel. U should mind ur speech.

Islam! Islam!......where is the peace u claim?

If the soldiers were wrong they wouldn't come to your place to record the attack. You did something to irk them




Muslim today, islam tomorrow Awon oloriburuku set of people

Today01:
Heavy fighting broke out late Saturday night into the early hours of Sunday, between men of the Nigerian army and members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria also known as Shiite, following the surrounding of the house of leader of the movement, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, by troops.
Following what the Nigeria army described as an assassination attempt on the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Tukur Burutai at about noon on Saturday, when his convoy was attacked by the Shiite members, the troops returned to El-Zakzaky’s residence in Gyallesu area of Zaria, at about 11pm.
It was gathered that moves by the troops to arrest the leader of the movement were resisted by his members.
Residents said heavy gunfire accompanied with chants by members of the movement were heard in the area for over two hours.
There were unconfirmed casualties in the late night attack.
A resident who confirmed the development over the phone said sounds of gunshots were heard around Hussainiyya area of Zaria around midnight yesterday.
Another resident also said Shiite members were seen carrying out solidarity protests around Zango road in Kaduna.
Trouble started about noon on Saturday after several persons were reported killed by soldiers in the clash which occurred at the headquarters of the movement in Zaria, Kaduna State.
Yesterday, members of the Islamic movement were said to have attacked the soldiers attached to the convoy of Burutai, who was in Zaria for a passing out parade ceremony at the Nigeria Army Depot.
Though there were conflicting reports as to what caused the clash, a witness said that the passing out parade coincided with the same date members of the Shiite movement were to hold the annual Maulud at Hussaimiyya in Zaria and changing of their flag.
“As early as 12pm, the members of Shiite barricaded the road where the COAS was to pass to the depot.
“The security details attached to the Chief of Army staff came down from the vehicle to plead with the congregation. From the distance, we could hear gunshots,” the witness said.
The source said following the gunshots, the soldiers made way for the COAS’ convoy to pass.
He said immediately the COAS left, some soldiers in trucks came to the scene and that was when pandemonium broke out, after which several persons were left dead.
Explaining what happened, the Army spokesman, Colonel SK Usman, disclosed that the COAS had gone to the Emir’s palace to pay homage on the royal father and as the convoy was moving towards to military depot, the COAS vehicle was attacked by members of Shiite.
“In fact the COAS escaped an assassination attempt. We were in Zaria to attend the passing out parade and to pay homage on the Emir of Zazzau and some members of Shiite blocked the road and attacked the convoy.
“Luckily enough, the Army Chief escaped unhurt. But we have taken the matter to the appropriate authorities for necessary legal action because we cannot allow such unlawful acts to continue,” he stated.
But, the leader of the movement, Zakzaky, denied the claim, saying “it was soldiers who opened fire on his members for no just cause.”
“They lied to have said we attacked them, nobody attacked them, they were the ones that first stormed our headquarters with truck full of soldiers, sealed off our headquarters on a day we were supposed to change our flag and started shooting and killing our people.”
This is even as he called for calm among members of the movement.
He said that based on what transpired, the movement was of the belief that the military had pre-planned the attack on its members and had acted according to their “mischievous script. They came with their cameramen, videotaping the whole incidence while it lasted.
“We are, however surprised that, spokesman of the military Colonel Kuka Sheka Shamelessly came out in the media and issued a press statement to say, that it was an assassination attempt on the Chief of Army Staff on the order of the Movement’s leader. Why was it that there were no casualties on the side of the military, if it were to be an assassination attempt by Kukasheka?”
He reiterated that what happened was not a clash, but a continuation of acts of terrorism by the Nigerian military on the movement, as was the case in the past.
“We are not surprised by this action, as there were reports spread by the same military the night before that the Shi’ites were to avenge their dead by hired thugs on Friday in Gabari, a village in Zaria. The same military also spread rumours that the Shi’ites had killed soldiers, all in an attempt to justify today’s dastardly act.
“Kukasheka should know that, once bitten, twice shy. The 2014 massacre of 34 members of the Islamic Movement, including 3 of Sheikh Zakzaky’s children by the military; the attempt on Sheikh Zakzaky’s convoy by the same military are still on our minds,” he added.

Zakzaky,may you and your stupid followers face the wrath of Allah. You are totally out of Islam,you and your like are spoiling the name of Islam.

why do I have this feeling this shiite leader is involved in Bokoharam...

remember Dasuki once said he knew them... probably they were traced and the only proticol here is elimination..

NA want's to cover the whole process up and do d needful..

hmmmn! Naija

Getting interesting

These guys actually have weapons to create "heavy gunfire"? Or is there some exaggeration somewhere?

Bokoharram!!! Shiite?

Chanji.... He said Jonathan was perpetrating a Zionist agenda when it happened during Jonathan's administration...I can vividly remember how this man and his sect rained abuses on Jonathan in the run up to 2011 elections.... I'll just sit down and watch.... I think the Yoruba's have a saying like this "The same cane that was used on the first wife eill also be used on the second wife".

I hope d military knows what dey r doing on this,coz u can imagine what calamity will befall this country when ds kinda sect merges 'openly' will boko haram. Openly coz dey may actually have been doing so underground with d kinda grudge dey have already with d army from past events. God help and save our country and d innocent souls.

ok come with me, if as you said they are involved with bokoharam, that mean they are also right when they said it is not bokoharam that attacked them. Then conclusionally I will say , the NA in bokoharam form attacked shitte group on procession or the sunni do so. All at the end Where is The peace?

Mogidi:
The Sunnis are too radical, its not a coincidence that ISIS are 100% Sunnis.

Boko haram V2.1 loading in Zaria.......

Pix of Shiite muslims protesting this morning

But these Zakay guys are Shiites - so I guess some of them are also radical. Almost terrorist groups are Sunni, though. I doubt there is a single international terrorist group that is Shiite. Hezebollah restricts its actions to its territory and does not seek to export its war. It's Sunnis who have the mandate to propagate the jihad.

noblezone:
Moslems should rise up and question the life, teachings and writings of Mohammed.

Islam needs to be reformed.

Maybe they need their own version of new testament

slap1:

This was my reaction, too. If there is an assassination attempt on anyone the perp should be arrested by the police since the army has no business arresting a civilian. But this "heavy gunfire" business would make it legal for the president to send in the army.

De one started by BH, IPOB nor end Ona wan start oda wan

Bro.. in as much as I'd love to answer ur question

d truth is. we don't know who is who anymore

even soldiers are at alert... Dasuki himself was once a Nigerian soldier and def. still has boys in d Army.


this Bokoharam took too long.. GEJ messed up
as it is now... d funds were practically from GEJ's govt. knowingly or unknowingly to him..

God help us

I think the major problem of Nigeria is not about terrorism alone. Its about Nigeria needs a strong policy to clear excess weapon in circulatiion. Considering the issue of militancy in the south south and misinformed Islamic movement in the north of this country. I strongly belief terrorism and militancy would be easy to cub if they were using bow and arrow or knives and matchet. GOD BLESS A UNITED NIGERIA
