"Let the government tell us the real motives behind the bleeding" – Shiites

By Luminous Jannamike

ABUJA – Members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, IMN, also known as Shiites, demanded on Tuesday the real motives behind the relentless bloodshed across the country under government surveillance .

They said that the reasons invoked up to now by various security agencies do not add up in the minds of people who think about rights.

At a press conference in Abuja, Professor Isa Mshelgaru, asked, "What can be said, did the bandits loot and destroy villages without reason, murdering and dispersing their occupants? in the states of Zamfara and Kaduna – for whom do they occupy these abandoned lands since they are not shepherds?

"Is it also true that Peul shepherds who are traditionally nomadic and who have never settled in history are busy killing communities to take possession of their land?

He added, "We think there are more questions in these security issues that are tearing the country apart. Therefore, we should work together to demand the real motivations for the intermittent, systematic and prolonged mbadacre of Nigerians by the federal government. "

Prof. Mshelgaru described life under the current situation of insecurity in the country where large-scale crimes may go unnoticed.

He condemned the recent killing of innocent citizens in the plateau and sympathize with the families of the victims, saying: are circumstances similar to the situations that the members of the movement have known for consecutive years. "
