BuhariFreeZakzaky protest turns awry in Abuja

The #BuhariFreeZakzaky protest by members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria,
IMN, at the National Assembly Complex and Federal Government Secretariat in
Abuja, Wednesday, turned awry, as members of the group were confronted by
armed police men, who dispersed them by releasing tear gas canisters.
Recall that the Nigerian military authorities had since last year December, detained
and held Sheikh Ibraheem El-Zakzaky incommunicado, after long hours of siege
on his residence in Zaria, Kaduna State, an operation that saw to the alleged mass
killings of over 1000 followers of El-zakzaky.
Since then, the IMN members have been protesting across city centres in the
North, demanding the immediate and unconditional release of their leader by the
Nigerian authorities.
