Buhari Regime Hired ‘Killer Doctors’ To Treat, Execute El-Zakzaky – Shiites

President Muhammadu Buhari forced the leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), Ibraheem El-Zakzaky to return to Nigeria without being treated in India because his agents wanted ‘killer’ doctors to execute rather than treat the embattled Shia leader, the group has claimed.

Buhari is a Sunni Muslim while El-Zakzaky is a Shia Muslim.

According to a statement by its spokesman, Ibrahim Musa, the Buhari regime was bent on executing El-Zakzaky that the Shia leader was asked to be treated by Nigerian government-approved doctors or return to
Nigeria within two hours.

“The facts are that the government mischievously went beyond its role of supervision to the level of maliciously interfering in the medical process, instructing on which doctors the Sheikh and his wife must see, while refusing to allow them access to their own doctors. Apparently, the government had a hidden mission, the details of which they had detailed specific doctors to execute. The Sheikh was forced to either accept their choice or return home within two hours.

“Being mindful of the government’s various previous plots to eliminate him since 2015, first through the barrels of the gun and much later through poisoning in detention while refusing him access to adequate medical care until the court’s intervention, the Sheikh sensed the government’s intention of inducing killer doctors to finish what they had earlier started, now through the back door.

“He, therefore, insisted on having the presence of the doctors that initially assessed him in Nigeria, who also worked in that hospital, failing which, he preferred to return to Nigeria. He refused to be subjected to any breach in the basic ethical principles guiding the medical treatment of people of respect for persons: protecting the autonomy of all people and treating them with courtesy and respect and allowing for informed consent, which the Nigerian government had contracted medical personnel in the Indian hospital to throw to the wind,” the group alleged.

It stated further: “Before efforts at resolving this impasse could be concluded, the Sheikh was brought back to Nigeria since their evil schemes could not be executed. The government is now churning out contradictory explanations to blame the Sheikh for not allowing himself to be killed in the name of medical treatment. The Nigerian government is also blackmailing the Sheikh that he sought for asylum in India just to cover their own gross misconduct in a foreign land.

“The campaign of calumny has been championed by the Federal Ministry of Information, which sarcastically even said they were apologizing to India for the Sheikh’s “unruly behaviour” rather than for their own obvious attempted assassination of somebody in another country!

“Isn’t it rather contradictory that someone allegedly seeking asylum would be unwilling to stay back irrespective of the circumstances but preferring instead to return to his home country? It is on record that it was the Sheikh who requested to be brought back home having been denied access to his doctors and rejecting the killer squad engaged to “treat” him instead.”

The government’s claim that Sheikh’s wife antagonized the Nigerian officials by accusing them of killing her three children, Musa said was yet another spurious search for a justification for its maltreatment of the couple.

“Isn’t it true that it is the government that killed her three sons when its army invaded their residence at night in December 2015? Wasn’t her husband dragged over the corpses of their murdered children having been shot himself and left swimming in his own pool of blood? Wasn’t she also shot and left lying lifeless in the process? Were they expecting a cheer from her for all these severe gross violations of their fundamental rights, even as judged by a competent federal court?” said Musa.

The statement added that Buhari’s government’s action was shameful and anti-people.

It said, “It is rather very shameful and a slap in the face of Nigeria that the government which hitherto claimed it had no hand in the case, now has to resort to lies, calumny, and blackmail against a couple whose alleged crimes has never ever been proved in any court of the land. All the allegations against this couple have always been merely spurious and unproven and knowing that they could never prove in any court use the might of state power to intimidate and misinform the public.

“It is noteworthy to state that the government is yet to respond to the confessions by the Saudi Arabian Crown Prince that they sponsored the Zaria genocide and the subsequent continued detention of the Sheikh in Nigeria. This same fact was earlier alluded to by President Muhammadu Buhari during a state visit to Qatar. The world is H watching all the persecution of the Islamic leader with keen interest. The government can never change the narrative.”
