Femi Fani-Kayode, a former
Minister of Aviation and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has
reacted to the clash between members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, IMN,
otherwise known as Shittes and men of the Nigerian police in Abuja.
The clash left at least six people dead, many injured and properties
destroyed.
The Shittes Muslims have resorted
to violent protests in Abuja and Kaduna in demand of the release of their
leader, Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky and his wife.
Fani-Kayode, in a tweet on
Monday, urged President Muhammadu Buhari to release the Islamic leader to
forestall peace.
“I left Akure only to hear about
the terrible violence, killings and burning that took place in the centre of
Abuja today during the Shiite Muslim protest.
“I call for restraint from all
sides and I advise @MBuhari to release Shiite leader Sheik El Zak Zaky before
it is too late,” he wrote.
