Some popular Nigerian activists have called on President Muhammadu Buhari to apologize to Ibraheem El-Zakzaky, leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, IMN.

Deji Adeyanju, convener of Concerned Nigerian, said Buhari’s government should apologised for killing six of El-Zakzaky’s children.

Adeyanju said the Buhari’s government should also apologised for imprisoning the IMN leader for six years.

In a tweet, Adeyanju wrote: “BREAKING: Nigerian Shiites leader Ibrahim El-Zakzaky and wife, discharged and acquitted, to be released ASAP!

“Judge says, “Case of the prosecution so manifestly unreliable.“ Muhammadu Buhari has done a lot of harm & injustice to a lot of people!”

Similarly, convener of RevolutionNow, Omoyele Sowore, accused Buhari of causing a lot of harm and injustice to people.

“Nigeria owes them an apology for killing 6 of their children and jailing them for 6 years,” Sowore tweeted.

A Kaduna High Court presided over by Justice Gideon Kurada had granted El-Zakzaky and his wife freedom.

Justice Kurada had ruled that the IMN leader and his wife have no case to answer.
